Hey Guys, so i am planning to buy a Galaxy II soon so i had a query about which color i should go for. For me both the white and the black one will be for the same price. So here is what i want to know:
Does the White Galaxy S II get dirty and scratched easily as compared to the black one? Ive heard the glossy back panel on the white one picks up scratches and dirt and turns yellowish over time. Is this true?
And secondly about the rim around white Galaxy S II is silver colored and around the black is chrome i think. Which one is more durable and scratch proof? I would prefer if you answered from personal experience rather than guessing! Cheers!
I'd go for black
I have the black one and it just looks lovely after almost a year of solid use. It's not a chrome bezel though, it's pretty dark.
I also had the black one as it doesnt get dirty easily. If you scare the phone get dirty easily, buy a protector. The color is pretty much of your opinion.
Yeah, black seems old but with the great amoled looks fine than white
Dude do not go for black . I have black but it sucks when compare to white. White looks simply awesome.

Pricelists I seen a while back had the black one £50 more than the white one.
I have a white one,but I think the black ones have a higher resale value as they must be more desirable.
And there's a pink option too.......lol

Hey is there any option to change full body of gs2 with different available color in Samsung service center.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk 2
I've had two S2's so far, both of them on black. Black ones are much easy to resell. They are also much more demanded, but if I could and if I do, I'd go for the white one. Just to try something different and also because on the reviews from youtube back from last year, it was clear the S2 was a bit more desired. The phone's in white can get dirty very easily so be aware of course. Black ones if scratched can be caught in the eye much easily and also dents or chips are more visible on the black ones imho.
My own experience
So I happen to own the white one..
Don't get me wrong, I love my phone and every thing but
it looks kinda "ODD" if you know what I mean..
especially when you are trying to watch a vid in a dark room
or when you get it out in a bus or somewhere crowded -you get people staring LOL :laugh:-
I've been using it for a while and the back cover is as good as new.
I guess the problem is the shiny rim.. it gets scratched easily.
so If I get to choose again I'd go for the black this time ..
I want a red one
I'd go white... just keep it clean & use a protective clear case ^^
If someone has white but want black one then u can exchange with me. I have black but I want white.

last time i checked, the white one has smooth glossy finish for the battery cover unlike the black one. but if you get a case i dont think anyone would see it
the white looks nicer with the sliver bezel around it. if i could i would have gotten a white one but it came out after i got the black one -.-
My wife has a white one and I have a black one. Both purchased about 9 months ago. I look after mine better than my wife, as in I don't just throw it into a bag of keys like she does! However her white gs2 looks like new still and mine always looks a little worn.
I would say we use them about the same too.

Seems to me that all the Samsung galaxy S II line up besides AT&T SGS II are getting a white version of their models. I mean even the skyrocket got a white version in less than a month after its release. November 6(Release Date)-December 4(White Version Release Date) So my question is has att and Samsung just abandoned the Galaxy S II? And Would you buy a white version if it was available at launch? and if any owners of the black version be interested in a white version?

I would have considered getting a white version of the phone. If I had the chance I would switch the black one for the white one(if it existed). It makes it a bit more unique, although most phones now are coming out with a white version it seems.
I would switch...i like the white color.

I'd get a white version if there was a choice. I'm pretty much stuck, but do believe I'd pick up a white one if it came down to it.
it just seems to me more than just a few people wish they could get a white version over the black version. i admit i almost got a white skyrocket when radio shack offered it to me cause this replacement for My SGS2 is taking a while to come in.
I'd have taken a white one, if I could have. I like the all black front, where the screen edge is hard to distinguish from the bezel, but white would be nicer. If they did offer a white one I think I would just lick up a back plate on eBay instead of buying a new one.

I've been considering getting one of those SGP cases. I currently have the white case mate pop case on my phone right now which ends up making it a lot thicker. The USB android thing in the last picture is really cool. Where do you get one of those for $4 (guessing eBay)?
The white sounds pretty tight, really.. and I would like if they put black capacitive buttons!

I just got my case today its pretty! Its thin looks more fragile than the phone. On phone its sturdy and firm fit. Id feel comfortable dropping my phone on the street with a casemate pop or tough case. But id only feel safe dropping it on the carpet of my living room with this case =/
I also thought of getting a leather case cause that saved my zune countless drops and scratches. Editor, Gariz, and Argos have nice cases

I've looked around but SGP doesn't have one for our phone. Do any other manufacturers make one that's similar? It would be one step closer to having a white Galaxy S II.

I don't have mine yet but I went with the blue simply because I hate all white devices.
White
1) The colors are uneven on the blurple model
2) No visible fingerprints anywhere on the device
3) The themes will contrast the bezel better
3) No purple button
4) I plan on making my phone black/white, stormtrooper style

Damn you! I think that just convinced me to opt for white instead of blue, although a few other points you made helped too. Plus, my phone will match my car and work van if I go with white
Pebble Blue
Pebble Blue, I like the violet button and the way the faux metal looks with being blue.
I ordered Pebble Blue and HATED IT! Should be called butt ugly purple... Plus the colors are different which adds to it's FUGLY'ness...
Posted an ad on Craigslist in LA for a trade and actually found someone to trade with so now I have White... :good: :good: :good:

It's a fantastic phone nonetheless, just for me I would much rather have the whole phone the same color shade shade. In the end this will bother us for maybe a week or so before we focus on the more important aspects of the phone (case, roms, updates).

I'm sure it is, but the more I hear people talking about the "purple" home button and the more pics I see where you can clearly tell it's a different shade, the better the white one looks....plus I can go with whatever crazy color I want for the case and it'll match fine. I like that much better.

i have white, but every time i look at pictures of the blue from forums (where it really looks blue and not grey)i wish i had gotten the blue )=
also the bright ass capacitive buttons that bleed light and won't dim with the screen really bother me. can't wait till cm9 when i can set the light value threshold.
I heard they may offer the black, but because they don't... which did you get? Why did you go with that color?

I got Titanium because I think the white will get dirty much MUCH faster and white accessories (cases, flip covers, bumpers) just never seem to be the right shade of white making everything look yellow or dirty.
I honestly based my decision on the sales woman's personal white Galaxy S3. It was white with a heavy yellow hue on the front from use and a whiter than white hard case. Looked terrible. That alone was enough to sway me to Titanium because I had arrived with the intention of getting white. Plus the Titanium is far better/richer looking in person than any of the unboxing videos can really show.
and I got the gray because every single chic I work with (and there are about 300 of them) has either a white S3 or a white iphone..........
If this thing only came in white I never would have bought it.

I don't mind the light bleed, but the border around the screen changes colors when the notification LED turns on ( has to be a dark room). I think its pretty cool.

I'm a huge fan of the titanium. I work in an auto shop and also as a photographer so the white would get too dirty.
Titanium here as well. When it was between the pebble blue and white S3, the white won hands down, but the titanium grey just looks a lot classier.

I am owning a white Mega 6.3 , and i loved it . Before that i was using Titanium silver Note 2 which looks premium too.
So guys share your viewpoints/Opinions between white and Black Mega 6.3:good::good:
I prefer black as it looks more professional (in my opinion) and makes the Mega look more compact (e.g. if you want to look slim wear dark colored clothes). The screen also blends with the frame when it's off plus it's not as obvious when watching movies at night. The holes for the sensors are not noticeable and makes the front look more solid. Moreover, the white galaxy phones are known to get light bleed on the capacitive buttons and gets marks more easily (e.g. ink from pens, markers, dirt). If you smoke, it will also tend to make it yellowish overtime as it may absorb tar stains.

True. Mine is in a blue ultra slim case right now but the front will always be exposed so you'll still see the frame, the holes for the sensors, and light bleed from the capacitive buttons if you have a white Mega. I'm just answering the OP's question, it's always up to the user what will make him/her happy.
BTW, just noticed the photo of the black Mega in my previous comment. It has the back button and the menu button on the wrong places. Weird.

Thanks for pointing that out. Also, the speaker is in a different place on the back for each of them.
Personally, I love white phones because they just stand out more. I don't like to conform.
Edit: Now that I look, those phones don't look the same at all. Maybe one is the Mega 6.3 and one is the Mega 5.8?

Here in the UK, the white is cheaper than the black one in some stores. I guess the white colour became 'premium' when Apple started making white iPhones and called it 'magical'. In reality, lots of people like white because it's different but now it has become more common.
Absolutely I agreed. ..

These skins look fantastic and D-Brand has a great track record for this sort of thing.
Go ahead and mess around with the different configurations then post a screenshot.
And post real pictures once you receive your Nexus 6 and brand it! (assuming you plan on using a skin)
I just don't like the selection. They need to create more ...
I want matte dark red
Slickwraps have more options
I like the black carbon, red accents I'm excited for this! Now if they could hurry up with the Nexus 9 skins.
I'm curious how they account for the dimple if you don't get the cutout.

Same here,
I want the back with no cutouts but i dont know how the material will look where the nexus logo is, or the M logo.
If you order it with the cutout you can buy the accent(for the cutout and camera lens) but that way you are gonna have some edge around the cutout.
I want to have the black leather to match my moto 360, but i dont want the sticker unstick where the M logo is.
If the glue is strong it should be okay.
Those samples with the accents look pretty sharp. I'm probably going to use a case for a little while, so I'm going to hold off on the skins for now.

I am thinking the same. As a person who can't stand huge and obnoxious branding, I will get the one which has no cut outs. But, like h0bnail said, the dimple makes me want to see it IRL first.

I want to have the black leather to match my moto 360, but i dont want the sticker unstick where the M logo is.
If the glue is strong it should be okay.

I've never had a skin from them peel. I removed one of their skins to put a different color skin on and it was a lot of work to remove and it left 0 residue so you should be fine.
As far as the dimple you can get a separate piece to go in it for $2. I may get a white N6, get the black CF Dbrand skin with a cutout, and in the cut out have a red accent in the Motorola dot.

That's exactly what in doing with the blue Nexus (except I'm putting s matte black accent on the camera and red carbon on the moto logo). I ordered mine a few days ago, their skins are awesome.
How does the matte finish skin feel?
Does their titanium skin feel metallic?
Wasted a good 30min going through different configs lol.
I'm going with a two-tone blue back with white accent for the M logo and camera. Matte white for the front.
Thanks OP.
Man I have never even heard of them!!! I will most likely be buying myself a set in the coming weeks. Im thinking black steel on the back with white accents.. and an orange front. xD
EDIT: Scratch the front skin.. the nexus 6 looks to be almost completely glass on the front unlike a samsung phone... so it would prob get in the way of a screen protector lol

I don't know what you mean by "metallic feel". I can tell you it looks and feels stylish. Obviously, it's vinyl, not metal, so it's not cold or anything, but it's really cool. It's a bit on the slippery side, but not as much as real metal.
Here it is applied on my white Nexus 5:
Dbrand posted a foto of the black carbon skin on a nexus 6.

By metallic I meant does it feel cold and kind of slippery. I figured since they advertised it as such, it would maybe have a thing layer of aluminium or something. After Googling, I found some nice pictures. That's good to know though.
Thanks!
I just ordered a Black Titanium skin, will be sure to post pictures/video once i get it.
Ordered a black titanium and mahogany, all my previous phones had carbon fiber look, looking for a fresh new look, also looking to buy a bamboo vinyl to cut it myself, they have one but i dont like it because the texture look is crowded. I'm trying to find one to match a closer look to moto x bamboo.
Dbrand posted a picture on their facebook page of an unreleased skin. I really want it since it looks really nice and grippy. I've emailed them about it but haven't gotten a response yet. Hopefully they'll start selling it soon.
