White Galaxy nexus at $399, I am wondering if it discolors..
Since it's plastic and white.
Anyone knows?
Thanks!
I've had the white Nexus S before buying the GNEX =] and even tho I kept it in a case its whole life... its still White
- Google
Talking about naked. No case.
Mine hasn't discolored at all.
No, does not discolor at all. Had it for about 3 months now. Used a case & had it naked , either way, still bright white

Buying the housing and replacing it over a grey model costs more than just buying a white one.
The white in Newegg is only $399.

I had one of the black full screen ones and I loved it. It made the phone look bad ass, the only problem was it screwed with some of the accelerometer based games I was playing because it effectively blacked out the screen when viewing from an off angle so I had to remove it.
I need one of these to many people look at my phone while texting

I keep reading how the buttons don't work with the big ones that's why I want one that covers screen only. I ordered 2 one long one and now that short one above. The long one will come first but I will just cut it to screen size.

I've bought 3 or 4 long ones 2 from ebay and 2 from daydeal.
Both from ebay did not allow the buttons to be used.
The first one from daydeal my current one works great but started peeling up in the corners so I ordered an new one from daydeal they changed up who they got it from and now the buttons don't work with it.
So now im back to the peeling one and shopping around for a new protector!

Hey guys I know this is Accessories but check out Screen Filter in the Market. It works surprisingly well and I think it's way better than a physical privacy screen protector.

Sad part is as much as I want white, I don't know if I'd be willing to go through a few more units to find one with a good screen..
Maybe someone will offer the white color kits like they did with the iphone 4 a year ago.
In that case, I'd be down to have a white Galaxy S2. I think it looks hot especially with the right case!
Wow. Just today i was considering buying a white i9100 on Craigslist for $400. Good thing i decided to check out the forums first. I'm definitely going to get this one.

When you say white case, do you mean like a phone case to protect the phone itself or are you saying that the white kits are available now?
If they are, that's what I want for Christmas lol

i also dig the white t989... i really liked the white i9100 too but sort of regret getting the black t989 now. i have the white D30 case though, and it looks great.
i wonder if they'll sell white housings on ebay. those used to be so easy to find back in the day (think Nokia and Sony Ericsson pre-smart phones)... but now they're a rare commodity.
Ugh! I'm going to try to trade out my black one for a white one!
You mean go to the store and trade it out or trade with someone on craigslist? Let us know how that goes.

If they sell the white kits, I'd be willing to do the conversion. I was one of the first to convert my iphone 4 to white a year ago.
I got stopped everywhere I went bc folks wanted to know where I got the white iphone lol
I must have got a good batch of parts to work with because even when I sold it no one knew it was customized.
I'd be willing to go down this road again vs. going through the trouble of selling my phone with a good screen and praying I find another one like it
Do yall think the white SGS2 will have the screen issues?
looks awesome
Probably. This one just came out. White coming out so soon, probably same production issues.

How easy does the silver paint chip/wear off? I was thinking about going white over black, but didn't know if the white will start looking worn faster.
I just got my white e4gt 2 weeks ago so I can't really comment on how the paint will hold up but it seems like it will be just fine. I do know I like the look a whole lot better then my black one and the smooth back feels nicer too so I would definitely recommend it
Had mine for about 5 months now and doesn't show any wear yet. Still happy with it, have the Best Buy Black Tie program and haven't used it once!
The paint does not chip off...I have a case though... using for over 5 months
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
I just picked up a used one. It has chips in the silver paint. Not a big deal for the price I paid. I guess if you scratch or bump it hard enough it could be an issue.
had white housing on for about 2 months now, no paint missing or chipped or anything.
I've thrown my phone of course with the ballistic case on it and not one chip
From the 2nd galaxy
I usually use the Seidio spring holster. The bottom corners of the phone sit in the holster points and I am thinking these may cause some wear.
Ive had mine for months love the look of it so i got the clear case for it and the mirror screen protector and it looks really good like that no chipping or issues yet.
Mine still looks great!
Can black, asian, latino, etc Epic Touch owners answer too? Sheesh, this seems over the top.
Picked mine up right after launch of the white version. No scratches at all.

Ebay is pretty useless for White Replacement parts (front cover, middle and back)

Not only is this the cheapest way to accomplish this, but it's also the least invasive and least time consuming. I'd definitely recommend this as well to the OP.

On that note, does anyone know where to get replacement backs? I bought a broken 32GB on ebay and fixed it up, (Only paid $50! Bezel was broken, but fixed up with epoxy no problem) the back is all cracked. Slapped a dbrand on there for the time being.
