Red Incredible 2. It's battery door shall be mine.
http://www.phonedog.com/2011/11/18/red-htc-droid-incredible-2-tipped-to-be-available-starting-november-24th/
It'd be kooler if it had the red keys to match, and was a tad darker red.

Looks pretty good, but I have to agree darker red would be a little better. May look better in person though.
Glad to see that the Inc2 is still getting attention, even if it is just a color change. Still the best 3g phone on Vzw
Same color as the Inc1 oem battery cover replacement.
They haven't offered the white battery cover yet... Hopefully they'll release this one though

Man you beat me to the link. I guess I will just have to cough cough borrow a red battery cover when they come in...... "Verizon I opened my shipment toady and one of my red incredible 2 has a black battery cover...."

Dress up
Well after two levels of dress up I wonder if they ever got around to upgrading the lousy headphone jack.
I would have sent it back the day I got it but the locked down upgrade came out the following Monday. I had it rooted and running CM7 that weekend.
Is any one else having trouble with the headphone jack?
I bet the next color out will be green or blue...
It seems a lot of work to go through to achieve what a skin could do.
I can't help but think that maybe there is some kind of hardware upgrade going on.

In this case, I think black looks better.
It almost looks pink to me. No headphone jack issues with mine, check for lint balls
I'm not a fan of it, i like the black Dinc2. Makes me feel like i'm batman.
I don't know why anyone would want a different color. I have a seido active case and i wouldn't be able to show off the color anyways. Kind of pointless in my opinion.
I have the Griffin Reveal case. Black around the sides and clear back. Looks great with a red battery cover

Actually Loving the Incipio Red Featherlight case
I got the Red Incipio Featherlight case and I think it looks better than a "Red" phone from the pics I have seen. The Featherlight Red case is a great pearlescent red, and looks incredible. I think Red/Black looks less tacky than all Red.
I really like the case it is really thin, I don't drop my phone ever but still would like some "protection".
I want the red and white one i love this phone

I have problems with my headphone jack as well. I've found that some plug ends seem to do better than others. That is my only complaint about the phone. As far as color goes, with the otterbox defender you can't really see the color any way.
the shade of red looks quite ugly.
Free Red DInc II + 4GB internal mem.
I may have been misinformed, but my Red DInc II will be here Tuesday with what I was told will be 4GB of internal memory and a preinstalled 8GB SD Card.
We agreed that it most likely would NOT come with ICS.
The hboot will hopefully be rootable....
Will keep everyone updated.
Edit:
Well it looks like the 4GB NAND internal memory is the same as the memory on the black DInc II that we can only access a portion of .
FYI - being Black Friday, VZW online is offering the RED DI2 free with new 2 year activation and mandatory data (300MB for $20 for light users) - AND, for line upgrade/family shared line, I'm showing it as being "FREE" as well & it's true even for secondary line. The regular "black" DI2 is still priced at $99+ and not seeing availability for the white DI2. A decent Amazon TPU case & shield can easily take care of the all red look.
To switch DW's aging LG Env3 non-smartphone to DI2 with 300MB is still overpriced considering that I'm in the grandfathered unlimited web & email plan with 22% corporate discount for $23.40. But, I supposed one could get it to play & downgrade *** the bootloader, root it & so forth - and have a spare one on hand by switching the device later on, and, cancel the data if she doesn't like it & reactivate an older device ....
*** assuming that HBoot isn't newer than .98 and can be rolled back, if nothing else, just to get rid of all that silly bloatware from Big Red
Can anyone tell us if the color is any better than the horrendous bleh red in the pics? I am really hoping the photos of that phone aren't doing the color justice.
its the same color as the red battery cover that the verizon store sold for the original Inc. Bright red. It'll look great as a battery cover but waaaay too much for a whole phone. I'm sure someone with a red phone would love a black oem battery cover
Well overseas they're already taking pre-orders for the black S3...I got my white S3 about 27 days ago...is there ANY way to return the white S3 for the black S3 whenever it comes out in the USA, that doesn't involve buying it outright or adding a line to my account? Yes, its that serious...

Unless you want a truly unique phone.
Would at&t get it tho? They have the red. I see the black going to sprint, Verizon or T-Mobile.

Yeah I have the white version from at&t and I'm pretty interested in this black one

Black would be nice, but I don't care enough to trade phones for it. I would if it was trading the at&t one for an international one lol

Black looks nice but every phone out there is black. I must be one of the few people who like the blue.

i just ordered a blue.. it'll be here tomorrow
I'm rather ticked off about the news personally. Had I known Sammy was going to release a Black GSIII I would've waited rather the buying a Pebble 'Purple'
The black S3 to me is a huge deal...I have an obsession with black technology...my laptop is black, I bought the Beats headphones in black, I bought the GNex, I bought the Droid Razr in black, I'm getting the Nexus 7 Friday because its the ish and its black, I bought the black Xbox, my TV is black (who's isn't)...My phone holsters are all black...I just like having everything uniform...and I hate that my phone is off and there's a huge black rectangle in the middle of it...I prefer darker backgrounds and themes but they look stupid with the white phone...etc...I was pissed when I bought the Droid Razr and three months later the Razr Maxx came out...feeling the same kinda way with this white phone and only a few months later the black one is scheduled to release...its a personal preference of mine...I have no problems with my phone, I just prefer the black and with the glossy finish it's gonna look great imo
man i would like a black one also! i got white bc i cldnt wait on the red, but damn just put all the colors out at the same time so folks dont have regrets :good:
Black is always nice. Screams sexy. All colors except the blue are nice. The red is a nice shade. Its like classy escort red, and not ***** red. The white is pure white and not some almost white color. And then there is the blue... its okay blue, almost looks grey though. My ex has the one x in grey and I always complained about how ugly grey is on phone. But that's just me. Lol. On a side note I love how the touch buttons fade away and are not visible like on all the other android phones. Nice touch Samsung.
Sent from my Samsung Galaxy S3 that I said I would never buy because it was ugly.
Could always swap housings.

is it even possible to switch the front?
looks like you would have to buy a whole new digitizer + screen + whatever else is attached to the front in black to change it.

I have the blue and I don't see how it ever looks grey. What angle are you looking at it to see grey? Only colours I see are blue head on, black or purpleish on the right angle.
EDIT: Okay, the back at certain angles can take on a grey tone but I always have my case covering the back (which is also blue) so I never notice that. I don't really like the backplate colour and wish it was the same as the front.
I, for one, am plenty happy with the blue. But that metallic black does look rather sexy if I do say so myself...
I'm sitting here needing a new digitizer/screen.... Probably just going to snag a black one since I have to wait until I have the 300 dollars for a new one anyways. I'll post results when this happens, should look interesting.

Mine's silver thank you very much.
I also read somewhere (when researching a trim replacement after dropping and chipping the trim on my s3) that its not worth getting into bc the screen is glued to the front trim

Hi all,
Does anyone here own one of these cases? Specifically in light blue, yellow or orange?
I ask because, looking at pictures online, it appears the colour on the front of the case is a little lighter than the colour at the back. I'm a bit weird, I know, but if true, that would annoy me and put me off buying one.
I owned the official flip case for the Galaxy Note and the colour was the same front and back. Is this the case with the S3?
Many thanks.
I had one, the blue one. It wasn't bad, the color looked fine to me. I also have one on my s3 and it has the same design as the color on the phone itself.

I have one in blue and am not impressed. It looks nice, the color matches the phone and it protects the screen quite well but ultimately, the inferior quality will force me to return it. It's been on the phone for 4 days and the top is already starting to delaminate and bubble along the left edge. You can push it down and it will flatten out but the next time you fold it back to use the phone, it bubbles up again. It’s getting noticeably worse as the days go on.
I have one and it's not bad. Not delaminating like others
I got the Note 7 at Best Buy yesterday. It's great so far. However, the earphones in the box are black instead of white. I have the Verizon version of the Note 7. It's no big deal really unless they sold me a phone that was used . Anyone else get black ear phones? Just curious.....

You sure they are black, when I bought mine I thought they were black too but it was just the case, once I open the case they were white.

Wow... you are right. They are white! Matt have been the excitement of the unboxing experience!
More users have fold 3 and a lot have/had fold 2 so i think worth open discuss.
Worth upgrade from older model?
What is for + and - compared fold 2 to fold 3?
I read posts users fold 2 and 3 about worse speakers and microphones work in fold 3 by water resistant.
Anybody can confirm above?
Yes if you absolutely need that S pen and higher storage. I gladly traded in my Fold2 for a 512 Fold 3, two cases + spen, care+ and charger for $846.96.
Otherwise, it really is a Fold2.5 instead of a Fold3. Cheers
honestly if u had the fold 2...it isnt necessarily worth it. on the other hand... im glad i did... the hinge being less bulky is a major win for me... and it feels noticeably lighter in the spigen thin armor when compared to the fold 2. I also love the in display cam doesn't take away from my home screen wallpaper. Minor... but major boost on how i feel when using the phone.
No. I have Fold 2 and I returned my Fold 3 for these reasons:
not so good battery life as Fold 2
noticeably worse sound from external speakers
writing with SPen over crease is awkward
S Pen case supplied by Samsung is a Joke ( I currently use leather flip case over my Fold 2 )
I hate that selfie hole cover up, I would rather live with display cut out which does not bother me.
Good things in F3:
512 GB storage
120Hz front screen
noticeably brighter inner screen
Inner screen display protector feels more like glass
Got pretty good trade in from Samsung for my old Fold 2 and S Pen case but still decided that I am going to hold onto my F2 little longer. I still believe they will release something like Note 30 or what ever they call it. This phone is not for masses despite the hype and initial volume of orders.
Only internal screen works with s pen?

Only internal screen sadly. It would be great if it worked with the outer screen too, just for a quick note. I don't tend to want to use the pen out and about, for fear of dropping the phone!
100% worth it to me. The Z Fold 3 feels like a more refined device in hand. Can't really explain why. But the addition of SPen support, water resistance, and the 512GB option made it worth it.
I traded in my ZF2 for the 512GB model the SPen Flip Case AND the Spen Pro, used a $100 promo code, my first responder discount, and used Rakuten to get 12% cash back. Brought it down to just under $700.
When the unlocked 512G version is available in Silver, I'll consider getting one. Until then, my ZF2 is just peachy for me.

My first car was black and I swore I'd never own or lease another black car. That was in 1977 and I haven't had another black car and still won't (now about 30 cars later).
