In the slim chance that someone might have one or are going to look at one.
I've preordeded an urban brown version, but it would be nice to know what it actually looked like before choosing that over the white version.
All the pictures I've found of this cellphone are the crappy renders that HTC spat out to the retail stores, none of the actuall phone itself. Videos and images of the white phone is everywere though.

Thank you, but that's just a 3d render of the phone which would look nothing like the phone would if I held it in my hand.
I did look for this both on google and youtube before posting here, and I can't find any real imagery of the brown telephone at all.

Thank you, but what a crappy picture.
I change my order to the white version so that I know what I am getting. I also heard that only the white phone would have the teflon coating.
Is that true?

I also heard that...
i've found some photos of the white and black one,
http://android.hdblog.it/2009/07/10/exclusive-htc-hero-photoreport/
From what I've read:
They all have the teflon / grip coating on the back
edit: OK, nevermind. Just every conflicting stories. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B3yZjYbs6Mo) has a brown or black version with the coating.
HTC itself said 'for now' only the white version has the coating while they are working on more colors that will have the coating (after initial launch). (press statement)
I guess we will just have to wait and see.
The white one is the _unlocked_ phone. That's why all the pictures and reviews are about the white one. The brown one is the default one 'in combination with a provider'. The pure black one will probably be reserved for T-Mobile (or dark-blue tints somewhere?) etc... I know that T-Mobile will have exclusive black, Orange will have graphite, brown is 'regular' locked and white is unlocked.
So I'm kinda surprised that you can order an unlocked brown version. Or if you are ordering it locked from a provider: I'm kinda surprised you can switch it to white .

Hi,
I got it from HTC for testing purpose. Work at the largest mobile phone distributor in Norway.
A great phone with a unique UI, great 5MP autofocus camera and Marked with lots of free applications that gives you the possibilities to download programs of your needs. I really love it. In Norway we are still waiting for the Marked with possibilities to buy applications. Will hopefully be released later this year by Google
Attached you will find a couple of photos taken with the 5MP camera on the phone, enjoy.

I finally got my HAD TO HAVE IT NOW Xperia - going to sell it .. Haven't even put it in my purse or taken it out of the house. My eyes are older than I am apparently and with the super great resolution everything is too small for me to read .. gotta whip out my magnifying glasses to use it ..I put it up for 1 day on eBay - but I will end the listing - if I can - if someone here wants it...
JEEZ ...
OT; which is the most common? Black or silver?
May I asked how much?
I think that [and this is just a guess] that black is more common. Not because silver is hard to get and there are many black ones available but because silver [in my opinion] doesn't look as good as the black because of the black keys. I would prefer the silver one if it weren't for the black keys.

I listed it for $825 .. I paid more. But then, I am in the U.S.A. and we always get the shaft when it comes to cool phones .. Basically I paid $75 to play with it for a day. IT WAS WORTH IT THOUGH !!! If I could see the screen I would FOR SURE keep it.

I you go to settings-system-display-textsize and change it to one step bigger and install HTC enlargestartmenu - is it then not big enough for your old eyes ?
Can you pm me to your ebay link please?
Speaking of phones with wonderful revolution, anyone see the T*Omnia that's coming out? An Omnia with 800x480 resolution... That'd be something to consider. Not to go too far off topic, but I just saw it on Engadget.

Yes it's looks very nice, and with HSPA! Except Korea's UMTS networks are only 2100mhz, so Stateside you might be stuck with just EDGE unless Samsung just happens to make it multi-band.

Exactly what i wanted to say...
I'm also interested. It would be nice to know where u are selling it. Maybe a link?
The version listed on Engadget is Korean only, you wont see anything that will properly work in the USA. The Omnia is going to be released soon, sans- WVGA resolution and Tv tuner..
go to settings then screen
and then from screen go to text size
and you should be able to increase the text from that tab
it's at the bottom to the far left
also could enable cleartype which would make the text more clear
Yesterday I met him for several minutes.

That is the size of X10 a little longer. Photos are closeups and that is why they look like that.
Yep, tried multitouch visible test and I get four points. A fifth finger makes no impression... The four that are there are rock solid, though. Can't say as I see a clear need for all five fingers at the same time, but maybe I'm missing something?

No need for more then 4 tbf
But the digitizer is supposed to support up to 32 so a custom rom will prob make more avalible if needed

I was lucky enough to be invited to the Press Release seminar two days ago in Hong Kong, with actual Engineering sample units to be played with.
Damn this thing is really light. I've also heard that DoCoMo in Japan has released the red colored version exclusively, aside from the silver and dark blue edition that is released as originally announced. The exclusive unit also has double the size of ROM for storage as well!
How I wish I can bring that home right away... haha!
BTW it comes with an HDMI cable if you purchase from online SE or directly from the Sony Store with the arc, but if you purchase Neo, it will not be bundled with.

Yeah, the "other" colour for Japan is pink The 1gb ROM is a mistake on Docomo's part, and for some reason they chose to not give us the HDMI cable over here (the shop staff I asked didn't even know the Arc had HDMI out )

Is that typical SonyStyle Staff or what? Sometimes when I am @ SonyStyle store, I get the feeling that staff doesn't know anything about Sony product.
I've been trying to find some of the alternate colors for the Note 3.
I'm on T-Mobile and I noticed they only offer black & white.
After digging a little deeper it looks like none of the carriers have the colorful varieties.
Can anyone confirm this. Can I get the Note 3 in other colors?
As far as I know you are stuck with white and black for the initial offering with pink to perhaps follow. Pink phones don't sell well and require inventory space. Space is At a premium for most retail shops.
Maybe you'll get them when you lot learn how to spell colours!

There are three colors and you can have two of them. So you're lamenting not being able to buy Blush Pink? Since that's the only color missing your thread title should be "No Blush Pink for the US???"

Gold is Best. Best! Best! Best!
After watching the drop test video, I ended up pulling the trigger on a slim Spigen case. I'm hoping that at least maybe the impact to the case would help minimize shock to the phone a little bit. I know that getting a flip cover to protect the screen side would be more effective, but I don't think that I'd really want to flip the cover open each time I want to use my phone.

No thanks. We're more efficient over here. We're better about removing excess letters that aren't even pronounced in a word.
I'd consider using a pink Note 3 /rebelgade
Also, I personally wouldn't buy one of those aluminum back plates since the phone is designed with its factory plastic back plate in mind. My two cents, anyway.
Just wait a few months that's how Samsung roles.
Color options always come later on, but given its the a Galaxy Note device its not as common place as the Galaxy S line in color options. Still it might happen.
Just wait a little and before you know it just like the s4 we will have a lot of color options in the states

Supposedly it screws up the NFC feature, which I don't really care about at this point. Thought they look pretty slick personally. And for 7 bux shipped, no big loss if it's junk...

If you were to speak English properly, you would pronounce them, albeit subtly!
It also wasn't a very efficient removal either since only half a job was done - Photo/Foto and Quick/Kwik spring to mind....

If this is true, I can't believe that no one leaked it. I would have thought they would have made a big deal over the exclusive color.

i the original leaked press images it did look black, even the metal band did, but it is believed that it was just the way the images looked.
I would like to see a black nexus 6, but I think the closest I'll get is if I get a black back from ebay.
This just goes to show you that all the reps are doing when they tell you info is reading off of what is in their system. If the system has incorrect information, the reps merely repeat it. There is never any point in calling a rep if the website is showing incorrect info as they will just repeat that incorrect info to you.
The black would look interesting next to the blue frame. I think the frame of the white model would make more sense if the back was black.

It's unlocked, this is a non-issue.
In spite of all the reports of the Green Emerald version not coming before june, I got a surprising mail yesterday, that my carrier ('CallMe', in Denmark) had sent it to me.
And sure enough, the Green 64gb version arrived today! See the attached photos.
I actually had already bought the White Pearl, which I have had a few days, but I'll return that and keep the Green Emerald. It's gorgeous. A rather dark, subtle green, but the light reflects in it, which makes it shift between a darker to brighter green, but not too flashy. It really is classy and cool at the same time. I love it
I wrote to my carrier, and they said that it was a surprise for them too, that they had received some green versions all of a sudden from Samsung. I hope that this is also good news for the rest of you, who are waiting for the green one - because maybe they are getting to the market much faster than expected. I don't know. I am just very happy to have it in my hands!
It looks so good, by far most beautiful color.
Gold is the best one according to me but it's a personal choice.

That's a Sexy Beast, I've got a case of the green eyed monster
By the way, I would say that it mostly is a very dark green. The brighter green is seen when a light source hits it from a certain angle - and the brigther the light source the more you get that shift in color as you move it around, and the more you get that 'metalic' look. But when it is still, on a table or in your hand, you mostly see it as a very dark green.
I don't have the Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge on the back here in the UK either
