Pics are being uploaded right now. In the process of taking more, I had to go down to the AT&T store to get a new sim card and get the APN settings from them so it took some time.

Damn I can get the black one for $750.00 why would I pay $899.00 for just a colour change, What so different about the white one?

For me its the shell, looks a lot nicer than dark blue to me. Its a matter of personal taste and white just happens to be in high demand right now because its new and relatively rare for the Note.

I ordered mine late Friday afternoon and it shipped earlier today. It's due to arrive Wednesday.

Lots of white ones available here in Hong Kong.
I was going to get one but then I thought I'd have to baby it too much to keep it looking new.

Galaxy S2 White

http://youtu.be/ZaFrnhMb3-c
She once said to me in a hot summer day just like today. "I wish to live like snow." She said "There would be snow falling from the sky somewhere else right now." Perhaps, I could live snowy-white one day. Is she living white now as she wished?
There is white in everyone's heart. 'Galaxy S2 White'.
Check this out ...new Samsung Galaxy S2 White Commercial.....
Damn that phone is sexy. Did you translate that by yourself?

looks like white available again for people that want one.
The prices are down everywhere, you can get it new from multiple third parties at Amazon as well.
They need to make a limited edition all black Galaxy Nexus....would be sexy as hell.
This is one of the few where the white one doesn't look that good. Most likely because the front screen isn't white also......an all black would look sexy as hell

Dubious? How did you reach that conclusion?
They have almost 240k feedbacks (98.7% positive). If that's your definition of dubious, I guess you won't be buying much online.

No colors for the US???

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!

I can understand that. But, I kind of feel it's a rip to not give us all the options that Samsung offered.

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....

Nice vid! this made my mind up. I am going to get this over the S5. Had the S3 and S4, N2...time to try something different.

Wait... does the glass run up over the speaker grills? :\
That's what it looks like.
I noticed it in the videos but wasn't sure but that sure looks like glass on the bottom.

If that is glass I might have to rethink this device. Part of what made the One so durable was the fact that it didnt have glass covering the whole front. Call me paranoid but covering the speaker grills with glass is likely going to result in busted glass. I really hope it's just reflection and glass dust but it doesn't appear that way so maybe I need to wait for drop test results.
No. The speaker grills are seperate. Look closely. Those are metal scratch on the grill and not from the glass extension.
