Yesterday I purchased the i317 marble white. So far the only flaws are the light bleeds through at night with the menu and back buttons, also the white just looks too flashy and the grey looks like it would be something more for me.
Before I return it is there really any reason to stick with the white?
I did not go with white for 2 reasons:
1. the phone is big enough and I didn't want to attract more attention to it.
2. my case would cover up the white anyways, so I went with gray so it doesn't look that crazy in a black case.
is pebble white different than marble white? i have sprint and it is marble.

Questions go in Q & A, and this is the SPRINT forums........
Moved to ATT Q and A
The warranty returns (defective devices only) are for same color only. To swap colors they will probably go through a return and re-buy kind of thing. There may be a $35 restock fee. Best thing would be to go in store and hope for a nice store manager.

I had the gray and switched to the white. My notification led was a little whacky on both grays that I had (while charging), as in the light was really dim and normal at other times. Switched to the white and all is good. Plus, I like the gorgeous display being bordered with white better. Felt like the gray took away from the screen. Btw, doesnt matter what color you buy this phone in, itll be big and attract attention regardless. Good luck!

I had the white on my OG note and Note 2. Thought the white look better on my original note but still looks great on note 2.

I personally love the way white looks. But I did not get it.
The two main reasons I did not get white and went with gray were:
-phone is big and white was a little flashy
-I am a guy and on my last white phone it was really hard to find a colored case that didn't look really feminine IMO. Example: red, lots of times the white kind of bleeds through and give it a pinkish look, but with the grey there are not such problems and I can have different color cases
Just my dumb opinion, but your preference will vary.
I had the original Note in ceramic white. Loved it and thought it looked worlds better than the black Note. Unfortunately, I couldn't say the same for the Note II. The positions were reversed: the ceramic white looks tacky, cheap, plasticy, and not so good. The titanium gray, however, has this really professional, sophisticated, sexy, premium look to it. I really don't regret my decision to go with titanium gray. At any rate, I don't think you could go wrong with either. I suppose I could get used to the marble white and learn to love it, but not as much as the gray model.
My white s3 kept getting dirty and the smudges were very visable. Just annoyed me badly. Yeah it also looked veey very cheap. Way to glossy.

Have both white and gray. Gray for sure. The light bleed on the LED/capacitive buttons is annoying as hell.

Traded my grey for white and im happy with it. Goes better with themes in my opinion.
For the size of note 2 i think it looks better in titanium. I originaly wanted white because i had and loved the white s3, it looked cute in gray case lol. The chrome on the white note 2 looks cheap on it. Chrome is sooo early 2000 imo lol.

I got the white Note 2 because every phone on the market is a dark color. It gets old after a while, and I am really glad I got white because of the notification LED. When in a dark room and I get texts or emails the LED will be a solid blue (sometimes flashes blue) and lights up the entire bezel of the device from top to home button. I think it's really neat looking. Same thing for when the phone is charging or is fully charged. I know it's a weird thing to like but I enjoy it

Could it be from the ambient light sensor controlling it? When in dark places the LED is dim, in bright places is brighter. This is on purpose, a feature, not a bug.

i m getting the device this week but asking about the white back cover
i want to take the white one but i m scared about the back cover may get some change in color or get dirty by time as the cover has leather like shape and stetches on the sides
so black or white note 3 ???
I plan to get the white one and then get a oem black back.
You may have to feel then to choose. Played with both today at bestbuy and the black does feel different from the white. They both look good and I may try white since I've never owned a white phone.

I got the white one first and returned it for a black one the same day. The white does noticeably shows more dirt.

Having played with both I'm going with black. It feels more like a premium device even though they are both made out of plastic.
Please do not create extra unnecessary threads. There is already a thread on device color please keep all conversation there. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=46205050
Have a great day!
Which colour device do you prefere?
My first lg g3 was black(titan) and i did want white but they didnt have any then i had to get a replacment and even tho at that time they had white they would not let me have 1 so had to have black (titan). Well that phone was faulty it had bad pixels so today i took it back and they offered me a white 1. Now im not sure if i prefere the black as i think the black looks more premuim. Maybe this white 1 will grow on me. What colour have you got or prefere?

Obviously, it's a personal preference, but I've heard the backplate of the white doesn't look as good as the Titan coloured one. I'm not a fan of gold so "black" was the easy choice, though it's not really black, which is kind of nice as it provides a bit of a change from my black G2.

Deffo black.
Mine is listed on my box as "Titan Grey" It's defo more grey than black though..
Just me then with a white lol
I bought a "titan grey" one but got myself this case which looks really nice with the otherwise blackish phone.
Which are you getting?
White
Black here!!
White. I struggled; I wanted the red. Had black for the last 3 phones, figured it was time for a change. If not, there's always black sharpie, right?
I plan to do what I did with my S5. Got white model and got the OEM black back cover.

Gold. Sprint doesn't offer white I figure if I get gold, I can get a black aftermarket back plate and go for Black with Gold trim
I bought the Korean one in black so I will buy the US one in White! I have a gold Circle case for it tho haha.
Always black
Had back to back white/silver HTC One XL/One, so I'm Back to Black!
its more of a metallic grey, and thats the one i got, its outstanding with the brush metal finish. The white seems lame imo
Black is too common and boring, so I got white.

I've had 2 black and although its very nice my third I got white and I feel it looks gorgoeus and glad I changed to white.
WHITE!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Gold!
All AT&T has in stock are black G3's tomorrow so I guess that's what I'm getting. I was leaning towards the black on anyways. I do think the person who posted on the 1st page has a good idea (white phone, black back cover). I really like the stock lock screen background with the white bezel at the bottom. It looks nicer than the black model with the same wallpaper.
I've had white phones in the past but I've been getting black ones recently. The all white phones just look "girly" to me now. I rarely ever see a guy with a white phone. I like that gunmetal color also. I just don't know if the white G3 would look "too" white, if that makes sense.
BTW, lets get a poll going OP.
I'm coming from a white S3 so I went with black. I kinda like the look of a completely clean slate on the front with the screen off.

I got a white one (D851) and put it in a black Spigen Slim Armor case. The black rubber from the inside of the case actually came off on the battery cover a bit. I think I would have prefered a black one but the phone is absolutely gorgeous!
(...and for sale)
White. I switch between colors. Looks pearl white to me.
Morning all, I'm off to buy a g3 today my HTC one is due a upgrade, so what colour are you guys using
Get the one YOU prefer. Tip!
I'm thinking white, but not sure if it's a bit girly

"Girly". Pft...
Anyway I like the white one.
I have the white. It's quite nice
White it Is then ?
Anyone recommend a good screen protector, would be good if carphone warehouse sold them
Get a glass protector, like 10$ for a icarez on amazon and worth the wait.
I went in wanting white but when the rep showed me her personal white g3 it was filthy so I decided to get black/grey whatever it is. Sometimes I wish I had gotten the white for the contrast around the sides if the screen but o well.
I got the violet one . Wanted to take the black but I've always chosen black for my past phones and I'm afraid white would get dirty easily . Not a fan of gold and I regretted not taking the purple when choosing the z so I took the violet for the g3
just picked it up, there is a little lag other than that it looks ok.
will take me a while to get used to it having been a htc user for the past few years
Get the white one. It looks awesome. But it would be better if you can see the colors in person to judge on your own. I seen and held all three. Gold seemed a little too flashy for my taste and I had a grey Note 2 previously so wanted a change.
That being said. I feel the white one looks the best. Classy & goes well with cases. Don't think it looks girly anyway. Does the white Nexus 5 look girly? I don't think so. Same goes for this phone.
WHITE
I thought long and hard about this. I went to the verizon store and held both in my hand and kept going back and forth between the two but settled on white and I think it was a good choice. It's sexier.
I've picked the white, fantastic phone
Carbon Fiber Black (thanks to the robots at DBrand!)
I dont think the screen is as good. I think my old ONE was a little better
I now have both gold and grey now and without a doubt I prefer the gold which considering I don't like gold things is saying something.
