Can you tell whats wrong with this image besides being able to take a photo of the front and back of a phone? This is how my white Galaxy S4 arrived after sending it in for a non working LCD.

I'm pretty sure it's the fact it's a blue mist now instead of it being white lol.

Yep you are correct sir. Painful that they took apart a white phone and put the wrong freaking LCD on it. How can you not realize it is beyond me.
Good maybe they will do that to mine. I hate having white

The good news is it only took about 5 hours on the phone to get them to take it back again to get it switched.....ffs.
That exact same thing happened to my sister in-law. Same color mismatch and all. Maybe someone at Samsung is a practical joker.

I'm guessing black phones outsell white by a large margin, maybe 10 to 1 or even more, so the techs are used to grabbing black parts. Mistake, but probably an honest mistake.

Also both the black and white s4 are white on the inside so if you take a black one and take the back cover off it will be white and with the front screen removed it will also be white so it's easy to get mixed up on what front to use.

Get this, was just on the phone with a Tmo rep and was about to order the phone. He said, you have a choice of White, Blue or Black... Oh wait, Black isn't out for another few weeks, forget I said that.
I wonder if it's true that they're coming out with a Black version? I can't find anything other than a little picture of a Black GS3 on the internet. If they are, I'm waiting.
as i understood apple is the patent holder for a black bordered phone. I can't imagine Samsung going through the motions again.
I am so weary of apple that I don't care anymore. they do what they apparently must do. I truly like the pebble blue as it comes across as blackish most of the time anyway.
The blue comes along blackish Hahahaaaaaa its not even that dark. White is defo the best colour anyway

I appreciate the effort. ;-)
No black
so there is no black version?
nope, there is just a model shop selling a 3d model with a black texture.
Black is coming, at least we got some info on it. I work at a store dealing with phones in Norway, and we actually talked about it today. I doubt it'll be as good looking as the blue though. It's so unique. White it's also stunning, but more ordinary imo.

any pics / promo material ?
This is the only image I've found:
http://www.3d-desk.com/samsung-galaxy-s3-black/
Now that I look at it again, that may be the blue. I haven't seen it in person.
that's a 3d model, not a real phone
I actually don't think it will look good in black, I think it will take away from the bright colours and 'nature' theme, just my opinion though!
fire is one of the 4 elements. charcoal is the result of it. I don't think it's out of the theme.
I was also looking for a black s3. but truly ador the indefinable blue color I got instead.
In the bleak dutch sunlight and indoors it's very dark. but not quite. for me the illusion of having an edge to edge screen (no high contrast between screen en casing) is important. why I don't care, it is what is is.
will I switch if a black s3 comes out? nope.

Can confirm this - talked to a friend who works for Elkjøp, they got a memo re Black SGS3s, expecting delivery in 3-4 weeks. He's pretty sure it's reliable, if that's worth anything.
Will probably get one to replace my freshly ****ed up chipped bezel caused by whisky last night...

NEVER and I repeat NEVER blame the whisky. Blame your mates, blame your wife or tell on the dog. but NEVER blame the one true friend man ever had.

Good point, well made. Talisker is God's tipple and is blameless. As indeed are Macallan, Laphroaig and Glenmorangie.
The whisky frenzy was due to going out with a mate whose wife has just left him, stole his passport and ripped thousands from his bank account. So my drop was entirely her fault.
Never liked the ***** anyway.

Just noticed the other day when I pulled down my notification bar. In the lower left quadrant I can see a small circle of pixels that are darker than the rest of the screen. I can only see it in a dark room with a black background. Anyone else with this issue?
Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk 2
It's called "black crush" and last I heard, Supercurio was trying to develop something to alleviate it. Google search it and you should see some results
Edit: nm you do have those black blotches common in samoled screens

Those are the "blotches" that you will hear people talk about. They are common on the Samsung SAM-OLED screens and have been a problem since the Galaxy S. If it really bothers you your best bet is return it and try another one, but that is hit or miss you might get one thats worse. Its a problem with manufacturing process of the screen (no software fix).
I guess it's kinda relieving to know it's common but not at the same time

Yup. I got my replacement the other day and it still had it but not as bad as the first one. Chances are you're better off winning the powerball than getting a perfect amoled screen

Was really drunk last night and noticed it while using my phone outside. Can't see it at all in normal use, but seeing it for the first time really bothered me. Well, for a whole 5 minutes at least.

It doesn't have to do with the retina displays...just the type of material. Apple and HTC use LCD variants and the manufacturing process doesn't introduce these black ink marks.

Brown? I thought it was red? At least that's what it looks like on the site. Either way I think it looks ugly. I was gonna get white but I feel as if it will get dirty while im hunting therefore i bought black
