Ok, so im purchasing an E4GT soon but im torn between the titanium gray and white. But the gray looks weird and matte on the stock photos. Can anyone post pics of their phone in either color? Also, case suggestions are welcome. Im looking at the otterbox commuter and a seidio case. Well, accessories in general. Thanks in advance.

Yeah I agree with him^^^
I love this phone, and everything about it especially the people in its forum, but to have this for another 2 years, I don't know if that's such a great idea.

Another +1. I got the s2 for 50 after the s3 came out, expect similar savings on the s3 once the s4 drops.

See, that's was the plan. I wanted the s4 but the phone im on now is on Its last leg. Random restarts and running an ics demo rom that's laggy as all hell. But I cant go back to GB. Ill try for the s3, but the s2 with jellybean seems like a nice alternative.
TPU case off amazon. Inexpensive, light, strong, thin and comes in different colors. Protects the phone well.
I would personally go with the titanium or black over the white for purely cosmetic reasons. I originally got myself the white version and ended up hating it after a while, gave it to my wife and got a black one. On a side note, the white version was perfect, GPS lock instantly and never had any phantom button issues. I have gone thru two or three black versions and my GPS on this last one is terrible.

this is honestly the BEST case I've ever used. it feels great in the hand and the kickstand is a must have if you Netflix at work. it's sold out on amazon but I was able to find mine on ebay

I had this case on my NS4G, it'll end up warping on the rubber edges, after about 1 month it was already messed up.. but this one can be different.
How thick is it? I have a Seidio Active... About as thick as I'd want to go.
Sent from my Samsung Epic 4G Touch.
How hard is it?
Is is a soft rubber?
Thanks.
Nice
Good looking case. Has anyone spotted any dark blue ones -- NO TPU cases please.. Thx
Hard plastic on the back, and the rubber is really tough but will give in about a month if you continuously take it off.. the real fit is snug you'll like it
I bought this case from Amazon first part of November and really like it
The kickstand feels a little flimsy which is okay because it's not used all the time, the phone snaps in and stays without problem... the reason I really like this case is because of the placement of the rubber, which is soft and gives the phone grip which is easy to hold in my hand.
Another reason I like this case is because I can put the phone on my dashboard or center console of my 2008 Chevy Silverado 1500 Crew Cab and the phone never moves while driving
I bought the White/Cool Gray one

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.

Without more punctuation, your question is directed at white owners of the E4GT.
It doesnt chip. I got mine almost a month ago and no chipping. It even still smells brand new. Lol I love this phone. :thumbup:

How long have you had your phone and how is the white casing holding up? With or without a case?
I'm asking because this time around I think I'm going to go for the white GS3 but I'm concerned that the pretty white color will fade to a nasty gray or get to dirty or something.
I don't normally use a case for my phones...thanks to the retarded annoying cases for the OG Epic, but I'm very careful especially since I got this S2. (I'm one of those people who trend to forget that my phone is sitting on my lap when I get out of the car).
But anyway, how's the white plastic looking over time?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA
I have had mine since November and it still looks amazing. Not a scratch on any of the white and no fading whatsoever. I only have a couple scratches on the silver edging which reveals white underneath, not sure if the SGS3 has this. I am very picky about my phone looking great and I wouldn't hesitate to buy this one again.

I just came back to the E4GT after having a Galaxy Nexus for a while... the E4GT I just picked up is white... but I immediately bought an Otterbox because I am not a clever man.
I thought I wanted the white E4GT but when I was holding it in the sprint store, I felt like I was wearing black dress shoes with white knee-high socks in shorts.
..so I went with the manly black flavor. I has no disappoint. I would have just covered it up with my case anyways! The chick at the sprint store had a white one and she told me that it picked up lint and crap from her purse/pockets. The textured back on the black one felt better in my hands too. The white one has a completely smooth and slippery back cover which I have no love for.
..but whatever blows your dress up!
Lol, but the correct term is "Pebble Blue" not "Black". :-D
WiMaxed away from my Samsung® Galaxy™ SII Epic™ 4G Touch™ SPH-D710 running the CyanogenMod9™ Alpha 5-Pre1!
Awaiting the Sprint® Samsung® Galaxy™ S III SPH-L710 because it's the SIII and it's on an unlimited data network.
I'm happy to say that I bough a Galaxy S 3. This is way better than the Epic 4g touch I love it so far. It's so pretty. The screen is beautiful. It makes the epic 4g touch screen look dull imo.
Im sorry if this thread is in the wrong place. Lol

I love mine.. have probably spent as much as I did for the phone in accessories already lol... otterbox defender case taken the otterbox screen off and put on an hd invisishield. Added a 64GB ext sd chip and bought a commuter box for backup.. bought the otg usb cable plus the Mhl hdmi adapter as well. This thing is tricked out nice
Oh and buying several Nfc chips and the wireless charger once it's out as well as already bought a wireless Bluetooth sixaxis ps3 controller I synced to the phone to use with games... people at my work do a double take and are sooo jealous when they see me playing N.O.V.A. 3, Shadowgun or just good old emulator games using the s3 and a wireless controller or just hook up the mhl hdmi adapter and play on a 32 inch LCD tv as well lol...

Hi I've recently got my s3 perhaps 4 months ago and I want to kill myself now that this beast is released. Just asking those Who have moved over from the s3, is the screen really that less clear compared to s3? I've heard that alot from many readings, and really hope to hear some feedback from you guys!
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
I ditched my S3 three days ago. Note 2 has by far a better screen. Both great phones, but I prefer the Note 2. The battery life is ridiculous. I swear, it's powered by a fusion reactor.

I came from the s3 last week and the difference of performance is like night and day. It must be the ram and optimized software. I like the screen is this note better because the colors are nicer and there is no tinting. True, it might be a bit less sharp than the s3 but you'll only notice it if you have both devices side by side.

Go for the gray one! My s3 was white and I loved it, decided to try something different this time. I love titanium gray as it looks really classy but it's kinda hard to match cases with it. The white one is easier to pair in that aspect but the gray one looks more professional.
