is it the same HD7 you got? - HD7 General

Hi,
Please have a look at this video, it looks like a slightly different HD7 than others
for me it seems metallic silver on the sides , is it true or is it because of the lights? or may be i am wrong. i did not have one.

yep, looks the same as mine, it does have metallic sides

Looks the same as other HTC HD7's.

yeah mine is slightly different too the grill at the top and bottom on the front for the phone is black
and the metal round the edges is not chrome it looks more like Hematite a sort of dark grey metal
quite like it this way rather than all the chrome to be honest tho

well can u pls help it review..its performance..and other things..battery life etc etc..
thanks

@ one mad punk, if at all possible could you take a pic of it and post it here?
Also is the material metal or plastic?

You guys are right.
The handsets i've seen in O2 stores still have a metal surround, but it's a darker metal instead of a more mirror chrome.
The grilles are also darker, it looks like they went for a black colour scheme over bling bling mirrored finishes!

recorded a clip of the edges of the phone hope this helps - much the same looking just less chrome

ah! thanks!
all of the ones i've seen so far look like that (which i prefer anyway)

Which is better built : white or black case g1?

Hello guys,
I'm about to jump on the g1 train, currently trying to decide between white or black Dream. I have only seen the black in person (still looking for the white ;P) and there arent that many reviews or opinions posted on the net (that I could found at least) as to what the difference between the two (other than the color of course) and their build quality is.
So, please post your opinions on the matter. I'm pretty sure there are quite a few users in here with the white version. Black seems more popular, for some reason its also more expensive in most shops. But is it also more robustly built?
The one solid difference I've been able to read about is that the white phone doesnt have the rubberized back the black one has. Is this true? What about the quality of the plastic used? Are both solid, or is one "weaker" than the other? How do both feel after a few months of use? Is the white one a magnet for dirt?
Thank you guys
Cheers

i dunno. I have seen an all white battery cover offered in a few other countries. If you do go white, you might want to look into the white battery cover. it looks slick
definanetly get a black one with the nice matte finish(it look the best) i have a white one and the paint is chipping around the memory stick slot, the chin and it is not very scratch resistant
even if you dont take the outer color into consideration, the keyboard on the black one is the best...the white and brown G1 have a keyboard that is harder to read in daylight.
black one! you can actually SEE the keyboard
Amen... White looks nice, but goodluck trying to see what youre typing if the sun is shining on it.

There is a way around the problem if you use "Backlight Off" from the market. You do however need root for it to work.....
funny you guys say that about the keyboard. i find it very hard to use in the sun, hardly see the keys at all. as far as build quality gos.
i love my white G1, however. it has a slight imperfection in regard to the underside of the chin where the backplate clicks onto on one side. it has a very small gap making that side not sit flush with the body of the phone. its not enough to notice unless you look for it but it drives me insane. the problem is worse when i use the extended battery making the whole thing feel flimsy and creaky. i have found myself wondering if i made the right choice getting a white one over a black.
I have the Bronze and the key board sucks outside wish I would have got the black.. But I still love my G1
Wow thanks a lot for the replies. White does look a lot better in pics (in my opinion at least ). Seems I'll take the black one tho
Thanks again, really helpful replies!
Cheers,
Niko
White one IS better looking.
I've got a black one, and hope I had chosen a white one... and most of my friends with the white one would say the same for the black one. Don't care much about the 'finish' or 'keyboard', it's all the same, just go for the one you personally prefer.
I would def stick with the black
Black unless you want to replace the keyboard. Even with backlight off on my bronze the keys were unreadable at times. With my black one it's looking for a program that turns back light on without a keypress.
I've got a black G1 and a friend of mine has got a white one.
Build quality is comparable i think, but there several other factors which make me favor the black G1:
- The 'rubbery' finish of the battery cover provides superiod grip when holding the G1 in your hand.
- The keyboard (even when lit) is better readable on a black g1 than on a white one. probably because the contrast between black keys/white characters on the keys is bigger.

in tmobile UK they offer the white g1 with white battery cover and white keys on the keyboard. but silver middle.
tmobile us is half white and from the keyboard down its silver. the back cover does however have the rubbery feel.
the white g1 however chips soooo easily =\ i have the white one. and i was reading somewhere that the first white g1s that were released in te US had the same whtie battery cover as the UK one,but were quickly recalled becuz of paint chipping issues.
i bought the black g1 first,but returned it for the white g1 since white is mroe visually appealing to me. however the white g1 keybaord sucks ass in daylight. white backlight on a silver keyboard just makes it hard to see.
some black g1s had the silver middle and keyboard, but nowadays tmobile stores sell a full black g1. the keyboard is actually a lot easier to see.but i hate the black g1 matte finish.
you can buy ZAGG invisible shield to make the black g1 have a shiny look and also protect it from scratches and chips.. or buy it for the white g1 to protect it from scratches and chips as well.
i plan to however to buy a white battery cover and install the zagg invisible shield(btw zagg offers lifetime warranty so you can easily get a replacement for free)

Nexus S Pure White Skin?

Herro peoples!
I want to buy a skin for my Nexus (not a "case").
I was wondering if there is a skin out there that is pure white. What I mean by that is a skin that is just white, with no menu button designs, NOTHING but white. If there is a white skin with cut outs for the menu buttons (so that they appear black when not turned on and glow white when active) I would be more interested in that though.
I desperately want to turn my "white" nexus to a completely white phone . If there is another way to do this besides skins, like changing the face cover or whatever please tell me.
Thanks ahead of time!
...Could I suggest a spray paint bottle ?
You can buy a bezel online and paint it white. You can also get an already white back cover. That's the whitest you'll get, since there's no screen with a white portion.

My phone is already the white Nexus S from Telus so the battery cover won't be needed. I might try the bezel.
Unique skins (http://www.uniqueskins.com/Products/Samsung/Custom+Samsung+Nexus+S+Skin?t=c) and decalgirl (http://www.decalgirl.com/category.view/Samsung-Google-Nexus-S-Skins) both have a white skin... Unique skins also let's you make your own skins so I can make a solid white one. I'll try that before anything else. Only worries are that the skins won't cover the 2 sides of the front screen that are black, only the other areas (only the top speaker area and bottom buttons area). I'd get upset if that happened lol. So I am going to end up getting a pure white case too

Just to help you out some, I was trying to find actual pictures of the Decalgirl skin on a nexus s, I found one review. Here is a good idea what the phone would look like with the skin on, you just have to imagine it white Like I said in my thread about Decalgirl skins, when mine arrives I'll take some pictures.

I believe when you get the skin you don't have to use the cutouts, you can leave them on to cover up, we shall find out tomorrow or Friday.

Black vs White subtle differences

I got a chance today to get hold of both variations. Other than the obvious color on the back, there are several subtle differences:
1. Earpiece color, black vs white
2. Side finish, matte vs glossy
3. Back finish, soft-touch vs regular matte plastic (contrary to what Engadget reported)
I was going to grab the white one for the look, but after getting them in my hands, I changed my mind. That soft touch back on the black one is really comfortable to touch (I don't plan on using a case anyway). Also, I prefer the earpiece to be black.
Also take a look at this post:

Weak, I didn't know that (about the finish on the back) or I too would've opted for black.
So the conclusion is that white has the better looking and the black is more comfortable for using?

16gb white was all that was available when i hit the play store yesterday so that's what i ordered. i like the black / white combo on this device and ordered the white spiegen ultra fit case to show it off.
won't really matter how the back compares against the black once the case is on there.

Well yes, this is my opinion, although IMO white is just slightly more appealing if it also have a soft touch back.
I guess having soft touch on white is either very difficult, or will make it stain/turn yellow easily
I always believed that the white one will not have soft touch, until I read the Engadget report...but it turns out to be false
I have a white GS3 and love white devices but after never being able to get a case or bumper that can stay clean, I opted for the black Nexus 5.
Man, if I had known the white wasn't a soft-touch stain magnet, I may have considered it more. That white ear piece grill is ugly, though.
Now that you mention it it makes sense that they wouldnt go soft touch with the white. Makes me long for the black one now. Im not usually one to put my phone is a case, but I think without the softback I might go with a case this time around and see how it works. Regardless, they both look like great pieces of hardware

Man thats disappointing. I was looking forward to the white. Did the back cover feel like the same type of plastic on the white HTC HERO? I Wish I could get hands on both. I was really up for the white but the ear piece looks silver in pics and I thought it would really detract from the gorgeous screen always catching your eye.
Shame they really should have documented that there was a difference in the two models and how they are finished.
Also how did the glossy sides feel of the white one? Im assuming the white is aimed stereotypically at the female market hence the glossy glossy sides.

I don't know how it compares to Hero... My first Android device is the GNex. It feels similar to white Note 3's back.
The sides shouldn't make that much difference in feel, I guess (I didn't check that out).
Looking at these pictures it seems the black one is fingerprint magnet:

I've got it in hand and it is really good looking, the back is a soft touch plastic but it is different to the black. The black is identical to the 2013 N7, where as the white is smoother and less absorbent, but still very comfortable.
Let's put it this way, in was stood with the black in one hand and the white in the other, could have had either and I walked away with the white

ALL the phones/tablet he show in the comparison have greasy prints all over :laugh:
Even the two-year old phone I use everyday is much cleaner...
Yeah looking at YouTube vids the white is soft touch. The sides are definitely glossy I actually think it looks more premium than the black.
However the white earpiece cover is freaking unforgivable in my eyes who thought that was a good idea. Its so freaking distracting.
It may be good so you can quickly pick up the phone the right way up but coming from a gnex my eye is drawn to it since its the same size as the notification light on my nexus.
Also watching any video on this and your always going to be drawn to the white dot. If they were willing to do that they may as well have made the whole thing white. The point in the black front is to stop glare or light reflection so as not to distract from the screen. This does the opposite.
It reminds me of a mini galaxy tab when it first came out. I liked that and I like this just not the white earpiece. Silly design feature.

HTC one black paint

I just recently got an HTC one black. While the color is really nice I have a small problem with the edges
The color is coming off. I have some small scuffs like dot that the black color is not there
and I can see the aluminium
Is there any paint that works on aluminium?
I was thinking to get a touch up paint for a car which supposed to be for metal
There are a lot of "stealth" colors available.
Has anyone done that?
What is your opinion

I'm in the same boat. At first was thinking plasti-dip, but that'd rub off pretty fast in and out of your pocket all the time. Subbed to thread, pretty curious.
Have you tried permanent black marker? I heard it's decent enough for small patch.
Actually the black permanent marker works pretty well. I tried to rub the surface where I have the white spots and the black color did not come out
I dont know how strong this paint is but I would not mind to do it every few months.
Nice tip
Witch color black do you have? I tried a marker but the black color is not coming near the color of the one. Do you all have the same brand marker?

dbrands skin

My dbrands.com skin came today for my OP3. It looks and feels great. They are now shipping if you want one. The installation is easy just follow the video on their website. Mine is yellow top and bottom with blue carbon back. Mahogany front.
lol omg how hilarious, i was just getting ready to create my own thread of this, i got mine in today too, i'll just share mine on ur post too
i like urs, great job on applying urs, the top and bottoms was a pain in the a... for me, but the easiest skin i have ever applied, no bubbles or anything, i don't think it will last long but at least they gave me 2 of them.
it does feel really nice and great quality (no cheap), no longer keeps slipping either
Top/Bottom/Logo - Red
Back/Camera - Matte Black
Ha ha good timing then. Yours looks nice too. I agree that it's an easy to apply skin. The tops and bottom was a pain. The key I found is use a little more heat on the tabs. My top doesn't look as good as the bottom. With the extras I'll just replace it if it bugs me too much.

Are you able to use your case with the skin?
All designs are looking awesome!
How well do these skins typically hold up in respect to edges peeling up, etc. i do not like using cases but would need a skin on an aluminum bodied phone.
My main concern would be the edges peeling back up due to use and pulling out of pocket all the time, or even just moving around in the pocket.
I have used another type of skin before and sometimes it does ok but other times it only lasts a day. Granted the skin i used did not fully wrap around to the front, more for back protection

So far the only issue or disappointment I have is with the front. It picks up the dust and hairs from my pocket and did get the side edge of the front screen to shift some. The back I have no complaints. No shifting, peeling, or residue collecting hairs like the front.
For longevity someone who's had these skins on longer will need to chime in. This is my first experience.
Looks awesome guys!

sorry, the matte black
Am loving the look of these will have to see if I want to use one instead of my case to take away some of the bulk
I've got a really good set up coming in the post
Here's a couple different variations of Dbrand skins I have done for the OnePlus 3. I am about to do black carbon w/ blue carbon accents. They fit really well and add a lot of protection and extra grip. I am very happy with it.

Thanks!
Do the matte black and the color series have the same texture?
