So I got my HTC one the other day. Got to say, this thing is beautiful.. Looks 10x better than my Note 2. However, I'm scared to use the damn thing! Anyone else have that same feeling? Check it out for yourself in the video! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9S_n1NCW868&feature=youtube_gdata_player

I love the blue one. It looks great. I've had it for a week without a case nothing with scratches or anything yet. I came from a s4 this is a better phone

Enjoy it! I love mine! This phone is FAR too beautiful to keep it in any kind of case, but that's just me . Looks great in blue too!
Am I correct that this blue color is (A) only available at BestBuy, and (B) not available anywhere on T-Mobile?
I really like the blue, but Verizon's locked bootloader is a problem for me, Sprint's coverage is terrible, and I'm running as fast as I can from AT&T. Is there any solution or am I just going to have to sacrifice somewhere?
I suggest two cases, both I own and LOVE, can't decide which to use.
They are thin, can barely notice they are there and will protect against the little bull crap.

right now I'm using the one from ebay, it's about 1.6grams lighter, nothing notiable but I like the clean look and feel sometimes, other times I LOVE that android guy
Yes the blue is sexy looking and would be hard to cover up the color with a case. I am happy with my silver.

I'm returning my silver htc one bcuz of the gap and I talked them into sending me a blue one. Does your blue one have gaps and stuff? Seems like almost all the silver ones do. I figured since the blue one is the newest that htc fixed the problems..

I have the blue one for Verizon and have had the silver one from T-Mobile. The gaps were minimal on the silver one and if they're there on the blue one I can't notice them. More than likely because the trim is black and the gaps, if any, would also be dark. That being said I didn't notice the gaps on my silver One until I read about them here.

Did you guys get the blue one from Verizon or from best buy? I'm so confused.. The lady promised me that a blue one would be shipped to me so I called back to confirm and he says it doesn't specify the color as blue and he said according to what he's seeing the blue one is only best buy exclusive and they don't even have it in Stock..

Seems like everyone is getting the 16gb Metallic Blue Samsung Galaxy S III. Has anyone managed to get a white one?
Does the white version even exist for T-Mobile?
I'll be getting Ceramic White 16GB.
i got the blue. i think the white is played out. plus the blue is realllllllllllly nice...
Haven't seen the two variants in person BUT I can't wait! So far I'm leaning towards the blue. Seems more distinguishable, extravagant, less likely to attract dirt/fingerprints

My Choice
I changed from AT&T to Sprint and got the white. I love my phone but hate my service, though I do not have to worry about overages, data wise.
I got the blue.. the white is a little girly imo, and white phones are freaking everywhere! I think the blue is unique and super sexy

Heres the link from Mighty Deals: SigniCase Wooden Smartphone case deal - MightyDeals

That would be my concern as well. Has anyone used one of these before? They look great!
The note 2 has had a great launch, there are barely if any complaints of hardware issues, the phone is fast, battery life is legendary, and they just added the multi window feature that everyone was craving for 5 days after the launch. Kudos to Samsung for an amazing device! How was your note 2 release experience?

The Note 2's screen is not narrower than the original Note, just taller.
How is the Note 2 less of a phablet than the original? Bigger screen, and it's even incorporating more tablet-like features over the original such as dual-window functionality.

screen is definitely an improvement, almost no black crush, and a very small amount of black blotches (when viewing the screen in a totally dark environment).
but: it's the same story as with all amoleds from samsung before:
you'll have the luck of the draw! it took me around ten (!) note 1 to find one with a decent screen! the screen quality
was different on each device i had seen!
same should applies here: one sample gsmarena got had a much more bright screen then the second one they got!
as soon as i got my hands personally on a few devices i will report how its with note2, although i guess it would be
the same!
I think I am getting used to the new screen now. I think the reason why I feel it's less like a phablet is because I have not yet rooted and so I haven't got the chance to change the dpi yet...;p

The inside of the device "battery compartment" is different than any version of galaxy note 2 that I can find in the Internet.
