Or the black. Let's do a poll. I just had to get a replacement and the rep hooked me up with a white, he says it us very popular and is sold fast. So i'm wondering how rare it is. It is a beauty ill tell ya.
Please complete the poll i'm just curious thanks.
Black...I had a choice, but I guess I'm weird. Everyone seems to like the white one better.

I purchased the white one when it was $99 on amazon... and now they're selling it for 1 penny! LOL Either way, I'm still selling my soul to sprint for these monthly bills and piss poor data speeds in socal... Sometimes I regret not waiting for the galaxy note on ATT, but then I look at how sexy my phone is and the EPIC development brought by T.C.P., calkulin, mijjah, and darchstar and everyone else!
I'm still looking for a nice case that compliments the color of the white epic touch. I currently have the CIMO S-line transparent TPU case bought off of amazon, thinking it would show off the white. I love the grip on this and how it adds much needed bulk, but I'm not feeling the "clear" of the case.
I had both,now i got white and it looks better because it makes screen look larger and i like the way android buttons are lit-its extra vibrant unlike black one.
If you wanna impress the hoes then get white one.

I got the black one. The white looks pretty nice, but I personally prefer black.
I prefer black phones myself. As far as the ladies go, my phones only get me in trouble with them because they assume I am talking to someone else....especially when I am on XDA

Started with black, gave it to the wife the day they released the white one. I love it because people only really know of white iPhones and when they see this they are like "wtf, where did you get something cooler than the iPhone?!" And I am like "there are lots of cooler phones than the iPhone, idiot." Then I proceed to blow their MINDS with Android awesomeness!

Well not every phone is gong to be the same exact color...example galaxy nexus. I had same problem but wasnr going to return my phone as everything else was perfect. Before returning it tho try morfics trinity kernel and see what u think. Colors are awesome on that definitely changed my mind from returning this thing. And i know u shouldnt have to flash a kernel to get good colors but hey after all u are on a website that modifys android phones

When I got my Galaxy S3 I was suprised how much more white whites were on it than my GS2, you should definitely send it back and get it replaced. Whites should be white on this phone.
Go to settings, display, uncheck auto adjust screen tone.. It makes the screen/whites look much brighter..

So... I bought my galaxy s3 from tmobile customer service. With a full upgrade I've only paid $ 179 of 16gb.
I've wanted the white one but they were sold out in 16. So I've went ahead and placed a exchange of the 32gb.
The first (white 32gb) had many dust stuck under the sceen... and interfere with the camera as well... so I've called to get me a same but different one that isn't defective this time. (New in box course) now the new one has huge gap on the metal bezel area... I could fit like 5 business card.
So I called again and placed another one...
This time I've told them to put a notation on my account so that the manufacture date is most recent... (both of my defective white phones were made in 7/4/12)
Where as my blue one is perfect...besides the dark pixels.
I really think Samsung's quality control isn't as what they claim to advertise as... I understand that no phones are perfect... but at least do a better job at hiding... lol
So in my opinion I could be getting a bad batch or just unlucky... I will keep you guys updated with my next replacement in white.
Please tell us your experience with similar problems.

No he's not, he's paying for a new product so it shouldn't have any defects or problems. What's the point of a 720p screen if it has dust underneath. My 2 yr old g2 doesn't have any dust whatsoever so why should this.

No ****. How close do you have to have the phone to your face to notice "Dark pixels?"
I wasn't aware that these screen panels could have dust considering the digitizer and screen are fused together. Hmm... :sly:

I was in the same situation a week ago, I had my white note that I loved but for some reason I really wanted the grey one. My roomate bought the white one from me and I ordered a grey one that I have since Tuesday. To be honest with you they are both great (in my opinion) , sometimes I see my roomate using the white one and I say to myself "damn it is actually very nice maybe I should have kept it" but im very happy with the titanium grey, I like the black S pen better. The grey one is also less flashy.

I'm undecided, but leaning towards getting the white Note 2 when it comes out here in the states. I've always had a black phone since back when I had my Touch pro, Evo, S2. Grey seems too much like the black for me.

Hello, I have been having the same issue with my screen on my Galaxy SIII since I bought my first one last february, what is causing it and what is it?
Pictures below, it has just started to develop on this my 4th SIII that of which was a BNIB not one of those replacement ones which my last two replacements were.

The circles start out hardly visible and progress getting darker eventually I have a row of up to 5.

I don't see anything I wouldn't expect to see.
Edit: I see them now. It's like one of those pictures you have to stare at to see the image.
I see them, and yeah that would be pretty annoying. Are you using a particular background, or playing a certain game for an extended amount of time that could be causing those to "burn" into the display? Anything along that line of thought?
Is that only noticeable on light background colors or does it get darker with a darker background color?
------------------------------------
If it was easy you'd of hired the guy at Home Depot to to it.
It's definitely a game or something causing this. Or background as the above user mentioned. Only issue that's common throughout all of the s3 devices are the ink blots. That circling is really strange. I'm putting my money on it being caused by some sort of burn in from the same image being displayed for too long.

It only starts getting darker and darker and more noticeable. It starts only being noticeable on white to gray screens then on all screens.
I do not use or have any backgrounds or games which have that design.
Would you pay the same amount for an SIII if you saw defects on the screen?
I pay for the warranty so I will make sure my phone is in prestine condition if ever I decide to sell it.
