Develop Bugs

Was hoping for something other than Silver

http://www.droid-life.com/2013/08/2...rizon-stores-no-sign-of-blue-or-black-models/
Looks like we won't get the Black or Blue (even though Blue was never confirmed) models. That's slightly annoying.

Yep not about to spend 500+ on a phone with a color I am not crazy about. Think it's terrible how Verizon has treated the Htc One thus far. From polls I have see looks like a 50/50 split of people who prefer silver or black. And sure enough Verizon finds a way to piss off half that group who have already waited months to get this phone.

I really wanted the blue. In the end though... It's still a One.

I don't like black phones so this is perfect for me.

In person the Silver model is cheap and ugly looking compared to what I had seen on youtube, but the Black model is extremely sleek and classy (this is my own opinion, don't get your panties in a bunch if you don't agree). If they don't roll out a black version within a month I'm just going to get the S4 again I think. I know that color seems a silly reason not to get a phone but I'm the sort of person who holds on to electronics for a very long time so this will bug me endlessly.

The black is not classy. It looks like a stealth bomber. You can't call a stealth bomber classy. The Black One is not sleek. It is hardcore, serious, and deadly. /joke
The S4 is not bad. It tried a friends today. No lag whatsoever. It was hard to reach the corners of the screen, but that's just me. Thing is, it felt extremely light. Not sure if that's good or bad.

I actually had the S4 for a week and returned it (before any development happened) and it was a great phone minus the Touchwiz stuff and lag (it DID lag at the time but that was before Samsung pushed updates out). If I got it again I would pretty much be running either stock 4.3 or Cyanogenmod. The things that attracted me to the One were build, speakers, LCD screen quality, and Sense 5 being a smooth minimalist skin compared to bloated Touchwiz. S4 in my opinion is better for screen size (wider vs skinny), repair-ability, expansion, camera, button placement, and development support (more popular=more development). First world problems eh?
Oh and yeah it was really lightweight. I liked that because I put my phones in cases so it makes it seem less bulky than perhaps a heavier phone would. Strangely it was lighter than my 2 year old Fascinate that's half its size... not sure what black magic they did to make that happen.

This whole thread is a big FWP. I don't want to buy this phone because, while it's better in almost(actually less than almost, both have pros and cons) every regard, it isn't in the color I like.
But, you're paying First world prices, so it's justifiable. I think the silver (which should really be called clear or natural) looks good in a sort of minimalist type of way.
Silver is the color of the bare metal. The black is just color on top, but the silver shows the true color of the phone.

Yeah I agree with you on that, I like the silver color of the metal but I think what ruins it for me most is the white plastic trim. I think it would have looked a lot better with a darker grey or even black plastic trim instead of white which will get dirty really easily and in the future turn a disgusting yellowish tint. For some reason in person it really looks cheap with the way it all came together, where as the black one actually looked premium. Of course, like you said it is just color so the major drawback is if you manage to dent or scratch it it'll look a lot more beat up than the silver one. I'm the sort of person to use cases so odds are mine will stay really nice... in fact I've had 2 Seidio cases since August 1st because I had false hope that they would have released it that day! :crying:

only issue I have with black is the same one I had with my iPhone 5 before I sold it - the black scratches right off to reveal the same 'cheap' silver underneath, and pretty easily. Put it on a table and slide it across, and it'll come off if the table has any texture at all...

I think the color is very important and not just because of a preference.
When watching videos you want the picture to blend in with the background. The silver sticks out like a sore thumb.
How many of you here would want an led tv with a silver frame as opposed to one in standard black?

i understand wanting that choice. to me, ive been waiting long enough, and i dont mind that visibility. honestly, i liked my white ipad more than my black iphone when i had them. also my led tv is silver - but its the thin bezel cinema screen

I've got to disagree. I've had several white phones and I never thought 'man I wish my phone was black so the video blended in.'
I'm looking at the video on the screen, not the phone. A black phone doesn't make the video any larger.

Hope the blue still comes out.

I want an announcement. What I don't want to have to wait another month and find out that they will never have black in their stores. Could be that they don't want to make one right now because they want it to sell in it's inferior color. I don't think so, and not even for profit.

Just ordered mine this afternoon. Been sitting on an upgrade since April. Was considering the Moto X but I'm sick of plastic phones and I think the screen is going to be much better on the One - true 1080p. Coming from the Dinc 4G its gonna be a little bigger but worth it for the screen. See you all in the Dev site.

Its a beautiful phone.

It's got to be arguably the best looking Android phone made so far.

Easily the most gorgeous and most advanced smartphone of 2016. It's almost like every other smartphone pales in comparison.

It's so damn sexy in Black Onyx! Every time I look at it, I cry tears of joy and get put back on another emotional rollercoaster! Loving the dark theme I downloaded off the theme store along with my dark themed keyboard and Nova Launcher.

It's extremely aesthetically pleasing to the eye. The symmetrical curves really highlight the build and capture the eye. It's an all around stunner!

Saw a black display model. And let me tell you...best phone design ever?

Best looking phone I think, I have both Blue Coral and Black...I need to decide one way or the other.

I had fun filming it and wanted to share it with everyone. Its the most beautiful thing to date. I had a Note 5 and did not hesitate jumping onto this band wagon.

Does anyone found a video where black onyx is compared to the blue one... Pre-ordered the black one but rly wanted the blue one only if it's not baby blue... a lot of video on Youtube have a very good lightning that makes that phone rich blue but rly it looks more like a baby light blue?

Most aesthetically pleasing phone I've ever laid eyes upon. Hands down.

NO. Actually, I REALLY wanted the Black Onyx version of the phone, because I simply prefer dark colors and thought the Blue Coral looked "girly" and "baby blue."
Black wasn't available, so I ordered the blue with the intention of exchanging it and paying a restocking fee later. And let me tell you dude. This Blue Coral Note 7... is.... f***ing astounding!
I don't know why pictures and videos all over the internet make it look so... light blue. But dude, it's waaaaay darker and nicer looking in person. It actually looks like a navy blue candy color. It's beautiful man! Trust me, check it out in person if you can, I decided to keep the blue once I actually took a look at it. In my opinion, it looks much better than the Black Onyx.
It's so nice man. I seriously don't know why it's so light blue looking in pictures, but until you actually SEE it in person, you wont be able to fully appreciate what I'm talking about. It's a shiny, dark, chrome/candy blue, with side panels that look silver in certain lighting, and red amber gold in other lighting. I haven't received my case yet but I have a feeling it's going to blend really well with both black and silver/gray-ish cases.

Thx for the feedback but I don't have any chance to look at the blue until Sept 16. Did a lot of research about the blue and at this moment I have a mix feeling about it. About the black not so much. So I will stick with it ?

Absolutely gorgeous. I wasn't so sure based on the renders, but seeing it in person is an experience. Even my iPhone fanboy friends have said, unprompted, that it looks and feels better than the 6S or 6S+.
This is what phones should look like.

Wasn't a huge fan of the Coral in person (went Onyx), but that's just a small quibble, because it's without a doubt the most beautiful consumer gadget I've ever seen. It feels just as good in the hand. This is Samsung's high water point, they should be proud of the design. It's almost no surprise that something like this would be somewhat fragile. Don't think I could bear to put it in much of a case.

I have to say I love the way the back and recents buttons are hidden. You only see them when they light up. I think it's one of those little attention to detail that makes this device so premium.

Hi. Just out of curiosity (as I'm getting my black onyx in the next few days; which themes was it you got for each?
I'm always looking for good dark themes.

Looking to buy One Plus 3. Grey or Gold? Poll. Opinions Please.

Hey there guys.
I'm looking to buy the One Plus 3 soon and I've spent a stupid amount of time trying to figure out which color looks better as I seem to love both.
I've seen many youtube videos and pictures and the Gold looks silver in a lot of them.
It's as if in one place the pictures the gold version looks yellow and another place it looks silver all dependent on the lighting.
I would like for people to post their opinions and see which one is more popular etc.

I bought the graphite, because it was released earlier, and looks better with cases, but i like the gold one too.

Graphite the bezels stand out to much in the gold!.

Ordered gold but had to cancel it. The front white color just don't suits me well. So, i bought the graphite instead.
I noticed that the back changes color too when viewed on different lighting.

I liked the sandstone on the op1 and 2. Wish they had it for op3. Graphite is the closest, so my opinion sways for that one. Quite honestly though, my preference for any phone is straight up black.
Sent from the OnePlus 3...
making it "RAIN!"

I have the soft gold version of the Oneplus 3 and i absolutelly love it!
The bezels do not stand out at all they are barely visible and the back is amazing.
The only downside with this color is the white front, but the more I use it the more i like it.

What color did you get?

What color did you get or do you plan on getting?
I ended up with the black but I was really debating on the gray. It was really hard to tell what the gray really looked like in all of the pictures. The lighting always made it look different.
I was pretty disappointed in the color options this year. How do you feel about it?

Got the grey

Got black and I am also disappointed with the color options. I even asked Samsung if I can get the bundled Buds+ in black but they only ship white, ehkem with a 1349€ phone... Nevertheless I got into some discussion with their support and they gave me two additional wireless chargers that cost 60€ each.
I never really understood why there is mostly such a trend that top phones get less color options. Note 10 was banging and S20U is like duuuuuh... Maybe they thought that everyone will use a case because of that camera bump but it is not a good argumentation though.

Grey cuz black is kinda boring. I bet they’ll come out with another color in a few months.

Cosmic Gray

I'm not going to limit the phone I wanted to get due to a cir preference so obviously I got the only color available which was black. Stupid how they do that but whatever. Provided it was an option I would've gotten gray.

Like most people have already stated, colors were boring this year. Black was unoriginal, grey seemed too basic. I chose black.

Black, because only Black was 512GB.

I know they will do this. It's so frustrating sometimes.

I went gray as well. The rep at Best buy said the ultra was the only device being ordered today.

Interesting. In Canada, only the Grey is 512GB.

In the UK only Grey is 512GB Ultra
And its exactly what I ordered ?

Black, because that was the only option for 512GB. I wanted the Grey.
Samsung, you disappoint with the color options as usual. I wanted a white Note 10+, had to get black. At least do ceramic or something like you did with the S10+ 1Tb, that was cool for the crazy price we are paying

Black 512 for me too, I always regretted not getting the s7 in the shiny silver colour, I wouldn't mind seeing that again.

I appreciate that I couldn't get grey in 512, made me realize I upgrade so much that getting the 512 in black isn't very smart since generally it will be worth about the same as the 128 when I upgrade.
I can understand why it would be less than ideal for others, but for me it worked out

Black because I haven't had it since the S2

Ordered black as it hides the camera bump best

Got Black. Thought everyone will go for grey. I might stand out. Also black is the only model with 512Gb

yeah I ordered the Black 512gb and I actually held the S20 ultra black today at best buy, and I`m glad I ordered the black one it looks lot better with the bigger camera bump, and doesn`t stand out like it does on the grey.

The S2 was awesome. Those were the days.

Need help about the color please

Hello Guys,
I know everyone should just buy the phone that he likes the most and choose whatever color he likes, but I am having a real hard time deciding between the Cosmic Black and the Cosmic Grey S20+.
The problem is I cannot go and check by myself in the store, so I can only rely on internet pictures. My sister bought me a black one this week as a gift, but I kinda like the grey color too. She still can replace it, as it is still sealed.
Actually I am using an S8+ Midnight Black and my question is : Is the S20 series Cosmic Black as deep as the S8 Midnight Black ? If it's a litte bit lighter that would be awesome, like a very dark grey. I just want to know if there is any contrast between the camera module and the rest of the phone's back ? That's actually the reason I am tempted by the grey, because of that contrast, but I find it too much in the grey version.
Anyway, could anyone post some pics of his Cosmic Black S20+ witth the most realistic color possible? The ideal is a picture of an S8+ and S20+ backs next to each other (in black). I know it's too much asked
Cosmic grey pictures will be also welcomed.
Sorry for my bad english, hope you understand my hesitation.
Thanks a lot guys,
Best regards,
Taieb

So i tried to take 2 pictures. One outside with natural light and one inside with a lamp. Honestly both looks really bad and don't capture the color but i also attached 2 photos from my carriers website. I think they are actually quite good so look at them too. Alternatively just go on YouTube and search for both phones.

S20 series Cosmic Black is the same real black like on S8+ Midnight Black. I got the Cosmic Black because it's better. I would keep the Black because of the black frame.
