Having had my white Galaxy S2 for about a month, I have actually gone off the white colour and now wish I had a black handset. It's a shame as when I first got my phone I was in love with the white colour and I was one of the first to get one of the white handsets on release day.
It's stupid I know but I wandered if anyone had a similar feeling and wished they had the other colour to the one they bought?
Anyone want to do a swap? Lol
Go to the xda marketplace and post the request for trade, I bet some one would be willing to trade with you
You can always get a black case (SGP or any other) and get SGP's Black Glass Screen protector for the front. Now you have a black phone! They also give you a black piece to cover your home button. Now you can switch in between your mood. That is what I am going to do. I hear what your saying though. I love my white one but sometimes I want the black front.
I frikin trade u. Pm me! Love white phones.

That's not a bad plan. I like the fact that you could choose between the two depending on what you fancy at the time.
GOD! i love my white S2 after years of nothing but black black black , I have had three back S2`s and the silver trim around the edge of the white S2 really does looks the dogs bollics.
But each to their own
A nice sleek silver phone would be lovely but i like my black GS2.
My white S2 is coming in on Friday

I absolutely love the look of the white GS2, but I went with black for two main reasons. First, (and maybe you can confirm this), I read that the smooth back on the white version made the grip less sure compared to the rough back on the black. Second, as much as I love the look, I'm not really the type that likes to stand out too much, and a black smartphone is a lot less attention-grabbing than a white one, even if the latter is beautiful. Plus, I saved about $30 based on the best prices I could find when I bought. Okay, that was three reasons I guess, so sue me.
But yeah, the white usually costs a bit more, as you can see here already, you won't have any trouble trading someone.
Love my white SGS 2 here using SGP with satin silver niiiice
I own a black gs2 and my wife has a white gs2. I like both but I do really like hers more! Looks awesome in white!

It's all a matter of preference. Go for it if it makes you happy. I know a lot of people including me who's like white one. Problem is that option was not available locally and I wanted a phone with warranty.

If I wouldn't have a lovely, yet black, SGS2 that I surely do not want to part with, already, I'd buy a white one!

Haha that's exactly what I keep getting told. Which has put me off the white. Don't get me wrong, I still like the look of it but would much prefer the black.
I prefer the Black as I have got a Black One all my phones have either been Black or Silver.
My colleague just got a White one and It kinda looks Odd compared to mine so quite happy
Yeah and its true girls look cool with white phones
Argh, my first white phone and I love it.
But today I somehow got ink on my hands from a badly made pen and must have picked up my phone,
ink marks stay on the phone and are NOT easily wiped off.
Went from screen cleaner -> lens cleaner -> flash -> Mr muscle, which FINALLY did the job.
The joys of a white phone
I got the white sgs2 after waiting for one month. I love it. I'm happy that I waited for it and didin't buy the black one. Looks awesome in white.
This is a really kiddish query, still I wonder which colour you prefer. I mean is there any different texture between the colours? I am coming from a Note 2, and in this phone the Grey version had a slight horizontal texture in front and back, but the white one had not. But if I see photos right I see that S4 has textures (those dots) on both colours right? Or the White is just plain, like Note 2?
I love both the colours btw, white just a tiny better
If you're planning to get a flip cover for the S4, there are many colors, so you can plan ahead if is white or black that fits best to your desired cover color.
No I don't plan to get that show off garbage, sorry. If I ever buy one it'll be for protection.

Both look nice but personally chose White as bored of black phones. White just looks more premium to me.

Yup it also has the texture.
I wanted the black at the beginning but was given a white one because they ran out of stock. The color grew on me and compared to my sister's black S4 I like the white better. White also minimizes fingerprint smudges so it looks cleaner compared to a black one.

I wanted the white one initially, but ended getting the black because of stock as well. But after seeing my friend's white S4 I started to like more my black, as it feels less "brightly" IMO, also I think the black is more manly and premium . But it's all personal , I'd recommend you go to a store and check both .
There's also this article (with a video as well) comparing both, you might want to take a look:

I used white b4 and then came back to black looks more rich white is very common nowadays thats my choice thought
.
ordered the white version but still debating which one looks best.
I'm gonna get black because verizon tells me which color to like.

Black is best IMO, so sleek
If you hate fingerprints on your phone, then the white one is best. But I think the white ones look cheaper and more "plastic" in appearance. The black ones look better to me.

Verizon says I can have any color I want as long as it happens to be black....
I'm getting a black phone, of course. I'm a man after all.
I like white phones but I rely on the LED notification a lot!
I notice that on black phones the notification led seems more pronounced with the darker surrounding background, on my white S4 I sometimes miss it when I glance at the phone from a distance.
Stupid reason from some but it's a real good reason to choose black for me.

I'm thinking white, my Iphone 5 is white and has the same black bezel around the screen, making it look smaller, but I don't really mind.
White looks a bit more trendy and different. I've only had grey/black phones so up until now and I'm in love with the iphone's white looks. The G2 looks really nice in white too - grabs more attention.
Only one thing - do you think the silver paint on the back buttons might wear out faster?
I own a white G2, I have bought this case for it.
The white looks great, but beware! If you plan to get the same case (which is awesome btw) or any other white rubber case, it will slowly turn into any color it touches the most. Eg. mine is slowly turning into blue, because of my blue jeans! I keep it in my pocket.
Doesn't look that bad, but maybe some will hate it!
I have a white G2 with a black Diztronic tpu case and I love it. The white looks really nice and doesn't show fingerprints without the case.

I also have this case, but in black with my white G2. IMO the white looks more premium and different, but it doesn't really matter once you throw a case on it lol

Coming from a white galaxy s2 I wished to get the white g2 also but it wasnt available at the moment so I went for the black one. Don't regred it tho. Wouldn't change it for the white one now.

I have white in all honestly I love the phone in white it makes the screen and everything pop out more for me. Granted notification led doesn't look the best compared to the black model but I would definitely go for the white. Most people have black anyways and with most cases being black now it just doesn't look good with the phone being black. I have the otter box case and black on white looks amazing with this phone.

I was gonna buy the white one because the black version didn't look good in videos and photos, but when i saw it close up i was convinced to get the black one.
I went with black.
Black and red tech devices makes my heart glow.
Thus, black G2 with a dark red matte case makes me happy.
White with a white case works for me

Alright, I delete that other post, make this one into POLL.
So, do you prefer black or white device?
I heard the Black one has one advantage, the black border around the screen, which can totally ignore, but the one white, you still can see black border.
You honestly won't notice the black border unless you're trying to find it, lol. I never noticed it until you guys pointed it out. White looks great. I have a white Note 3, which is why I decided to get the white version. Another reason is due to fingerprints I read about. The black apparently is known to be a fingerprint magnet.
Agree the border is no issue at all did either noticed it before someone here mentioned it and I really looked for it. I picked the white because it released first, but think I would have picked either way, I like the color.

I brought a black one. Can't stand the black boarder between edge of the screen and the bezel on the white version.
White, I'm hoping to reach my country (Chile)
i got my White Modell, but not fully aware.
On Full Screen Videos, example in Youtube remain black borders at the top and bottom of the screen.
That does not fit in contrast to the white model (black bars).
It would be nice if you could hide the edges of the frame, but that will probably not go, because of the resolution (16:10) of the display?!

I had a white HTC one x and couldn't keep the dirt off for the life of me. I must stick to black lol
I have the black one, it was the one Asda had on offer BUT I prefer it to the white one
I have a white S3, next phone will be black
This is the first device that I actually prefer in white. Although honestly, they both look great.
I have a black G2 though, I need my phone to match my car's interior.

White.. because i dont want to see my fingerprints on the back all time..
Black model
I had the white model but then exchanged it for the black model. The features of the OS go much better with the black. Once there is a ROM for pure Android I think it will go much better with black than white.
White no doubt like the LG G2 its shorter brother it looks better in this colour'
I prefer Black, but you can only get the White model here in Australia so that's what I have!

No, a white phone is not girly. I had a white Note 2 and it was awesome except when it was getting dirty. I still don't know too which color to get, but I'm leaning towards black. They both look awesome IMHO.
White is right

For me it comes down to fingerprints. My last couple of phone have been white and white is what I've pre-ordered.
Last year I bought two Galaxy S4's. The white for my wife and the dark blue to me. I had both near me most of the time and was able to compare anytime... It happened that I liked the white so much more than the "black" and now everytime I have the chance I'll get the white one. ?
But.. Obviously it's a personal taste. There's no better or worse. And I agree with the above post, there's nothing of "girly" on a white phone.
Edit: it's stupid I know but two or three times I dropped my s4 on the floor because it was over my laptop keyboard or over the closed lid and when reaching out my laptop on a dark room I didn't saw/remember it was there. That's another really really personal reason I'd go with the white. ?
I have a white s3 and like it but went with black this time around because I like how the screen looks like it's edge to edge when it's off

lol. both black and white are neutral colors, both man and woman can get those color and fit with it. the only girly color for note 4 is blossom pink.. i guess
White all the way.
For some reason I think the gold is girly. My last two phones were white. Going back to black to make a change.

I only had white phones and they look great but when you buy a white cover it'll will always goes dirty right know i use lg g3 white but my circle cover got from white is more red now couse of my pants
Every time I buy a new phone or tablet the colour is probably the hardest decision to make!
I had a white Galaxy S3, Note 2 and Galaxy Camera and I liked them a lot, but decided on a change to black for the Note 3. It was then I realised that black is better for screen contrast especially when watching videos. I've never had a fingerprint issue and I feel it just looks more premium.
So my answer is: White is not a girly colour, the pink obviously feminine and possibly even the gold in my opinion. The black Note 4 looks more premium and that's the colour I have ordered!

This! It goes so well with the Samsung TW this time and in general i really like Note 4 much more in the white color.
I got black Note 3 when it was released and i wasn't crazy about it, but imo Note 4 looks so much better in white.
I also have white Tab S 8.4 so they will go great together. And no i don't think that white is girly. Pink is for the girls.
I have a white note 2. I am glad I chose white and did again on the note 4. My wife has a black note 2 and the black just seems to show any scratch or dirt more prominently. It's kind of like a car. A white actually shows less dirt than a black. They are both nice colors though so it is just personal preference.

You have a point. Makes me think twice in getting the white one. Currently have the grey note 2
I ordered white, usually have mostly black phones as well. But my note 2 was white, note 3 was black so now going back to white. I feel like the phone pops out more which is great for such a powerful little beast.
White. It was on my 2 and 3 so will be on my 4.

I went black this time. This huge phone will get enough attention as it is. My s3 is white. I am not a huge fan of the contrast between a black screen and the white bezel.
