I have to agree here. I looked at the White S3, and just thought that it looked too plain. I mean yea... there's nothing special about giving a brushed aluminium look to plastic, but at least it's an added bit of depth. Didn't really want such a smexy phone to look like... uuh... another popular white phone that's not nearly as smexy.

It's even worse that they're claiming that the ICON'S infringed on their patents. Going by their actual patent information in that document, and looking at the side by side's later on... wtf are they on? Well, we could easily say that the white phone on a green background is NOT at a 45-degree angle. And most of the others don't look remotely similar. I mean... thinking that Samsung's smiley in a speech box looks similar to Apple's own speech bubble? The Settings icon... what... because it has a gear in it? And WTF are they on with the photo gallery icon? NOT EVEN CLOSE!
Apple just seems to have the patent office in their pockets, as well as the judges they use for this sh*t, cause they are granted so many patents for the most ridiculous stuff it's unrealistic.

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.

Anybody else pick this case up?
I got the grey/black from ATT. There was no way this phone was leaving the store naked, so I chose it (free due to a plethora of bull****).
Anyway, this case is actually pretty awesome. VERY slim, yet sturdy. It fits better than I imagined, and I had pretty high hopes. Also, the buttons retain their solid "click" when you press them with ease.
I highly recommend it. ATT has them for the manufacturer's price of $35. I will post pictures if anybody wants.
I looked, but didn't find a similar thread. Please let me know if there is already one!

I picked up the grey from the AT&T store as well. I like the contrast with the white phone and the black rubber around the edge, but I agree that the "grey" has some purple in it. Still, I really like the case and I'll only bother to change the color if this one wears out. These have been my favorite cases for my last two phones. They seem durable and offer great protection of all edges.
I wonder if they are making Candyshell Card like the one for iPhone... https://www.speckproducts.com/iphone-case/iphone-4-case/smartflex-card-for-iphone-4s-4.html

Yeah, I got the white from Newegg after the $30 coupon ($649). Also, go to fatwallet.com, click on cash back, find newegg, and click-through from there to purchase. In about 45 days, you will have an extra (up to) 4% back. Best deal going.
Use the savings to buy a genuine flip cover - this way you get the color you want (minus the front, which is not a big deal at all).

Titanium Gray is more appearing and this is why I am not upgrading to 32 GB version and sticking with my gray 16GB. In my market 32GB note 2 is available but only in white. When I bought my phone there was no 32 GB available. Now it is available but only in white. Had it be gray and I would have upgrade it in blink of an eye but white one looks cheap from bazel and the back. Titanium gray looks cool and different from other regular colors.

Does the white have light leakage on the from bezel buttons like the SII did? That is what steered me to preorder it in grey. Looks more professional IMO.

I got the grey model because, while the white model is gorgeous and eye catching, I think it's novelty of having a white device would fade shortly after or I would get tired of putting it on the table or taking it out in front of people. I don't want to look "metro cool" at work, haha. I just want something classy, which the white is, but it's just not for me. I'm used to having BLACK phones and I'm tired of black phones. So when I saw Samsung has the SGN2 in TITANIUM GREY! I thought "whoopie!" hehe. But to be honest, the white is really nice, but I think in the long run the grey version will serve me better . This is of course 100% an opinion.
any color will do
Thanks, Color doesn't bother me as much, I just need more than 16gb. So there is hope that the 32gb might be in the states sometime. Since there in your area already.
Get a microSD card?
My SIII died and had to be repaired...I lost everything I had stored on internal memory (though I had a backup made days earlier, phew!)
Just a thought
I guess I will. I was hoping for 32g internal and a 64g sd card. But I don't think I can last until it comes over here. But I've waited this long, perhaps one more month will not kill me.
Thanks for your input guys and yes when og note came out I knew right away that I wanted the white one. Now with the note 2 I wasn't sure about whether I wanted the white because I was always attracted to white phones or because it looked better than the grey one. Looking closely at many pics and videos of people actually holding the device upclose I've decided that I will go with the grey one. Two reasons, when I had the white note the slightest scratch on the back was able to be seen and because there's something about those tiny little stripes on the grey one that intrigues me lolll

White phones are designed for people who just care about the looks.
Anyone who is a tiny bit technically competent who never ever put a white bezel around a screen. It is stupid because you lose precious contrast on the gorgeous screen.
Apple should really patent the white bezel so that everyone stop copying it.

This case is great for side and corner impacts, but the small lip hinders its face flat resistance.
My friend has this case on his sgs3, and I saw his phone drop onto our tile office floor and crack the screen, while in the case!
The floor did have a slightly raised edge, due to it being tile, but nothing a good case shouldn't have protected against.

^ sorry if my post seemed discouraging. I can only speak for the experiences I've seen with this case in an s3, which is 2 years old.
If the lip is a decent height, things should be fine if it falls facewards. Back and sides should be fine because of the thick plastic/rubber the case is made from. Let us k know how it fists!
