[Q] blue ? - Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)

OK I ordered a blue phone and this looks purple to me??and my Dumb question is do I have bad paint job or is this damn thing purple? So disappointed Samsung!!!

I kinda like it the Pebble

I have the blue as well, I hate white phones but the blue with the glossy back sucks.
I ordered the black Carbon Fiber skin for the battery cover and the blk bumper. That should hide all of the ugly purple blue.

Blurple?
I thought it was going to be a more navy blue type color...reaching back to my kindergarten crayola days I would have to say it's more of a perrywinkle blue than a purple, But i'd be satisfied with blurple also. Living in alabama and not being a bama fan was absolute cause for not getting the red one!

U have any links to items to bought? I can't seem to find

I'm not a fan of the blue. It's so shinRyan and metallic. I'm gonna swap it for a white ken next week at the store.

Actually, that cover is not a bumper. It is a clear back cover.
It worked out well. The carbon fiber covers the back and the case is super slim with rubber edge to protect the screen and good for gripping.
No more Periwinkle/purblue and finger prints. on the back only the screen.

seriously waiting for the answer
Looks nice enough but i wouldn't want one over my black one, what i would love though is a nice silver chrome plated GS2 that would be seriously smart.
Looks like the battery cover is smooth doesnt have the same texture as the black one. Also, the official Samsung 2000mah battery only come in black as of now

a very very bright white, alot brighter than my black gs2's
and yep the back is super smooth white.
button lights.... very bright indeed
As nice as it may look, white looks absolutely horrendous to me. No offence.

Hmmm i would have loved it if they made them blink with a blue backlight, but it's still nice. At least the back cover won't become grayish when the finishing will be worn, at a guess...my black one suffers from that a little, and take into account that my phone lives in a full body case 90% of the time

No offence but i prefer black, simply because the screen and proximity and camera looks odd on a white front. Looks more "out there" where as black looks stealth...

I think it's too early to make such assumptions, you have no idea how it would wear, if it wears at all

Some DIY found. Would like some feedbacks.

Hey guys, check this Xperia Arc out.

Some guy in Thailand is doing this as his local business, but since he's charging small to do this, I figured this is something easy and cheap that we could do ourselves. The question is what material is being used to wrap around. Would love to hear some of you guys' feedback. I'm feeling it might be some Teflon tape? Any ideas?
OMFG the pink one is cooooool
also the orange one *-*

From what I see, he did not disassemble the phone at all. It looks like some thin film that goes over the phone.

Yes, you can notice on the hole to pull out the battery, film is over the hole
I want! Hehe. Great to hide those faded marks on my arc
any links for this item?
i want the sides to be all black..
for preventive measure haha
Looks like a very bad job. Look at the edges you can still see the chrome and there are dried up blobs near buttons.

yes but he definitely got the two-tones colours right, especially with the black and orange one, I'm gonna look around online to see if i can get something similar going with my arc.
beautiful ,i like the white/cyan colour.
reminds me of a white/gold combo on some Blackberry sets..
gold anyone?

Xperia S in White or Black?

I think black looks cleaner as white is not having 100% white frame like X10 used to have but looks great on the back side ;-)

Honestly one of the nicest phones ever designed. White for the girls, and black for the guys. Those are probably the targets too.
I'll buy in black.
Every phone I get is usually in black.

I like how the display in black phones just melt in with the rest of the phone in a way that i dint find the white ones doing. I think the screen seems smaler when u have a white phone, and I like big screens
Usually black makes slim.
If it's matte black then I'll choose black but if it's glossy black then I'll choose white over it any day.
i was thinking of making this thread as well, im confused about which color i want to get myself too
You know what they say: Once you go black, you never go back.
Maybe this should be transferred to the Xperia S forum now?
In any case, unlike most here I prefer the white one from the front as I like the contrast. But, I'm afraid there's too much white for my taste on the back.
As far as the black one goes, I don't think the bottom plastic part will blend nicely with the deep glossy black bezel surrounding the screen, as the plastic will just look a little "less black" and not very integrated if you know what I mean.
black is the best colour. Whie does look nice but you will get bored of it very easily and no way of changing it. I used to have x10 with both white and black housing but after 2 cdays with white i always ended up returning to black.
Black. I think white is more.. girlish. No offense
Black colour is better because, if it gets dirty/scratched, it will be harder to notice it. Especially when talking about those shiny covers.
I pre-ordered the white one, I think it looks better than the black version.

I think both black and silver are very cool. If I had to choose, I would pick Silver.
There are several interviews that say no red version will be available. The red was intended for Verizon and they are not going to carry the phone so red seems to be out.

Silver
Not a fan of the design in general but I think the black looks way better. The bright white lines on the silver model really make it appear disjointed and makes it look like a Transformers logo. You can still notice the breaks in the black model but it blends in more.
I've had all black phones for the Galaxy line so now that I'm jumping to HTC I think I'll change it up even more! Silver for me!
Black for me, i like the understated looks of it, always had black phones (or "glamour grey" in the case of One X)
black
silver...every phone is black nowadays..
Black if it becomes clear that the coating is tough, otherwise silver as that's the colour any scratches will show up as.
The black looks better IMO.
Silver for me! but I think they both look pretty sexy!

what u mean you would , lol you haven't ordered yet? I ordered at f4u upgrade deal for £26 500 min and U txt and internet no upfront cost
i pick black!
The silver looks cool. I'm afraid of the black paint fading or chipping. So I'd rather get the silver.
I will have too see them in person first.

Post photos of your phone

For those who wait, like me, I thought it would be fun to see the phones of the lucky ones.
Be it a unicorn or a nice cloudy blue, share with us the Moto goodness you've got.

What's the point? They literally are identical. Redditors like posting frivolous photo posts.
why would you do this? just go on G+ and you can see person after person post pics of the box when it arrives. Mindless and pointless. We all know what the phone and box looks like.
Fair enough. Just thought it would be fun.

Looking at the way the light plays on the grain of the wood, and the cutout at the camera, I would say its applied to the case. Willing to be proven wrong though. And the corner cuts on a ringke slim extend further into the case, do they not?
For comparison.

You're correct, I looked at it and assumed the white was the silver of the X n the Nexus logo because my brightness on my phone was rather low. That application looks great for or being in a case.
