Just came across these:
Anyone has any experience with them?

I'll let you know when it actually arrives
From the looks of the pics it looks like the battery cover is slightly thicker than the stock cover, so it should protect the camera lens from scratching.

thanks ! have been looking for these for a while !

I'm actually after a spare stock rear battery cover. Anyone seen them being sold online or at a shop?

Thanks! I'll buy the black one, because I don't want to scratch the original one.

I dont think you could scratch the original one even if you tried. Its made of perforated plastic and is rough to touch anyway.

I think these might be cool for parties etc

Depending on the price I'd love to get a yellow and green one!

Well I actually bought the white one, will post pictures/comments when I have it. If people are interested

Here you can buy an original one:

Yes please. Im interested in the White one and would love to see how it looks in real life.

Ordered a black one just because it has the Galaxy S II logo on the back
Should look nice with my translucent black TPU case.

Nice link, shame the only colour they seem not to do is the one I want (red)

I'd like to se e metal ones. Maybe somthing the same colour as the metal on the outer rim of the phone would look good.

I would be very interested in one if these if they played nice with the Zagg invisibleShield FULL BODY maximum coverage or easy install. The stock back has the texture which makes the invisible shields look like junk and peel.
Anyone want to be my guinea pig?? =D

If the price was right, it would be cool to be able to switch the back cover to suit the colour of your wallpaper. $13 seems a little steep though. If it had been $6 I might have gone for a couple.
Interested to see what they look like in reality though.

Grippy white battery cover

Just ordered a sgs2 and it appears that the back cover is smooth, the black phone has a better grippy, mesh like cover. Does Anyone know where I could get a white gritty cover? Thx

Guess there is no such thing :'(

Go on ebay. There's plenty of different battery covers you can get. I found a white carbon fiber sticker to put on my white battery cover. It adds grip while looking awesome!

My sister just got her white galaxy s2 on Christmas Eve from the orange shop, and it has a white textured battery cover like the black one and a silver frame surround on the back.

can you please post a photo of these battery cover and show us that ?

Hope this works, not posted a link using my phone before

niiiceeee *_*
where can we buy this
i have only found this
http://www.ebay.de/itm/White-Carbon...sesPouches&hash=item41603632c9#ht_1487wt_1396

its looks great

askham, where and how can we get one of those? dude, that looks awesome. That silver housing, is it part of the phone or a bumper case, something interchangeable? the white mesh back?
God, mate, we need answers...

As I said in my original post that is how the phone came from Orange UK.
The silver frame is the same part as the white phone, its just silver and has the Orange logo on it.
My sister said the girl at the Orange shop said they are the new stock, it comes with NFC enabled too.
I've no idea whether you can buy the housing from anywhere, I would love the textured white back too.

wow. that's news! so orange are doing a limited edition. I hate them. I have the original all black.

Some more pictures for you

i love these Design

if ya like this setup and dont want to buy two cases, go yell at incipio for not making this obvious color choice

I have seen quite a few black and white cases on eBay just fyi. And some do fit the LTE nexus.

Seidio Active comes in white. That's what I use and I love it.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA

I have the same one as the OP (but it's grey). I hate it. It's too big for the GSM Nexus. Obviously designed for the Verizon version (but of course isn't mentioned in the product listing). It's sitting in a drawer somewhere.

Actually, that looks really nice. I've got the Incipio Silicrylic in black, I prefer it to the Otterbox Commuter. I think I actually prefer the gray and white to black and white, it must be said.
I just noticed the gray and white is on offer... Hmmm. I might be tempted to get one.

Looks good, my seido active looks pretty much the same, it's a nice color combination

I am using this case now (white and grey) and have had it on my phone since I bought, almost 2 months ago. I am looking for a new case to replace this one cause I really just don't like it. It doesn't fit very well with extended battery, but I knew that when I bought it.
The real problem is the case is brown now, lol. The white stayed that color for about a week. That and one of the corners has a hole in it from taking the top piece off and putting it back on a few times. I had the same case on my Thunderbolt and the corner did the same thing.

Leave the back in bleach for about 12 hours, good as new. Happened to me and it looked so weird to have brown on a white case.

Now, there is no official word from Samsung and it could just be the lighting causing it to look black. But could also be a hint that its coming. I think a black S3 would look pretty awesome, id be pissed though since i already got my pebble blue version.

Ok, now I'm pissed. I wanted black from the start.

I would have taken black as well. Not, saying Blue isn't nice, but shiny black is like eye candy to me.

I've actually grown fond of the Pebble Blue.

I see some blue in there. I don't know......

Looks like a lighting effect. Look at the color where it is closest to the white phone, it is reflecting blue.

Either way black would have been my color choice instead of this white one.

Yah that's definitely just lighting. That's looks blue. Even the border shows hints of blue. But damn..a pebble black would've been sexy tho

Thats Fuuu!! I wanted black. pebble blue is kinda meh.

If you look closely at the besel it is blue

If the phone was black there wouldnt be such a big difference between the screen and the bezel, especially in a press photo. Would have been chill though

I'd trade my 32 GB blue for a 16 GB black. . . lol

Meh.. black is cool but very common. I bought the pebble blue version (happy!!)
Ps we should all keep calling Samsung to pressure them to give us info on the black one!

It's clearly a pebble blue model with a colored screen protector, you can tell by the bezel.

was just up at the att store returning a case and from far away i saw what appeared to be a black s3...only to walk up closer and see it was the blue one. it genuinely looked like the one in the picture. my guess this is just bad lighting

Yeah, but a black one would have been my first choice if they released one. :/

http://www.mobilenapps.com/articles/3603/20120810/samsung-galaxy-s3-black-new-iphone-nemesis.htm has other pic of black G3 with it too.

I think the Pebble Blue is a great color. Love it. Have a very well installed screen protector and one of those soft cases with the Android Guy on the back. I also put one of those clips that fold open to slide your fingers thru so you can text with just one hand. Saw it on YouTube and had to have it. $25.00 for that plastic clip but very well made and works great.

Red and black nexus 5

So I cracked my black nexus 5 32gb since I refuse to have a case because it makes the phone too bulky. For the longest I have time I have wanted the red nexus so it was time to experiment. The screen replacement cost 130 on eBay took like 10 minutes to replace. Now since I had to wait I actually found a red nexus mint for super cheap and had to make a choice. The red and white nexus is more slippery due to plastic back and I don't know if I could sell the red and black for 400 since its kinda custom. Anyway turned a negative into a positive actully made a nice profit breaking my phone.
Let me know what you think and is there like a cover that sticks to the back like the nexus 4 had.

Sexy

I'm jealous man, that's exactly the phone I want!

The lack of quality makes it look better because my back gets dirty and smudges all the time and looks kinda faded. My goal was to do this to sell it but don't think it would sell for over 400. Anyway ordered a red spigen slim case for it just so I don't crack this one

Very cool! Ive been seeing a lot of nexus 5 users changing out the back panels! Now if only it were easy to replace that earphone colored piece....

Wow, looks great! If I seen one of these, I'd be instantly purchasing it.

Looks great!
Fully aware that the thread is a month old, but I just ordered a black back cover on eBay for my red Nexus to do the same thing. The red Nexus is just to slippery for my taste.
How much less slippery does the phone feel when handled?
I'm a bit worried that the red frame contributes a large part to that slippery feeling.
Just curious and eagerly waiting for my back cover to arrive ..

That is sick!!!!
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

it would've looked even more cooler if the red was even more saturated or vivid, still looks cool though.

Cool
I have the black and ordered the red back plate just because I like the red.. going to switch between them I think depending on my mood.. when it is in I will post the result

So, I had the red Nexus 5. When I've cracked the screen, I accedently ordered the screen+frame of the white Nexus 5. In the first week it looked awesome but now I miss the red frame. I think about taking the glass out of the glossy black frame and put it in the red one. I just need a sucker tool and some glue.

More than likely, it won't work.

I liked this idea and did the same to my black N5. The only difference is the addition of a rinkge slim case. Over all I'm pretty pleased with the effect.
