[Q] White Galaxy Note Fading/dirty quickly? - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

This might be an odd or repeated question,but need help and assistance guys.
Going to Samsung Store this weekend to buy the Galaxy Note.Dad and mom prefer white and i prefer blue.
Will the White Galaxy note Fade away after months usage?OR will the White gets dirty easily than the Blue?
I hope white users would also reply to this thread.
Thank you.

My note is a month old and there is no fade, the flip cover gets dirty and so does the back but other wise its full of awesomeness

Mine keeps pretty clean

White will always show more imperfections. Also dirt of course shows up as well but it is hidden on dark colors. Of course cleaning it u won't have any issues.

I got mine for a couple of months now and it still looks brand spanking new. Well honestly, it also depends on the owner I guess. I gave my old white HTC Trinity a few years back to my brother which has no fades at all and the damned thing got old overnight, lol. It's like his hands squirt acid and his pockets are made out of spikes, lol.

I'm in the same boat as you. I upgrade in July and I know I'm definitely getting this phone but just don't know in which color. I'm leaning towards the silver one because it looks really nice and I've never had a phone that was not black. I'm going to compare both in person before I make a decision though

Silver because it looks good.
choice of colour will be subjective,i think- personally i prefer black
I had a long time to decide what colour I wanted to order. The phone came out in mainland China before it really got going in Hong Kong (the model I wanted), so I had a chance to see the phone whenever I walked past the million or so phone shops that dot this city. Prior to seeing the phone in person, I had decided from pictures and videos on the internet that the silver is the one to get. Once I saw the phone in person, I ended up at the store for about 20 minutes trying to choose one. Both colour options are very nice. After the 20 minutes, black was the one that I wanted. I went back and forth a few times over the next couple weeks, but I eventually stuck with my original choice. Silver is nice but, I found that if you weren't looking at it up close, it for some reason appeared cheap. The black looked great at any distance, and fingerprints weren't as bad as some people are making it out to be.
So my advice is to go to a store and check them out. You won't go wrong with either, but I think Black is the best buy (probably also helps my last phone was the white One X).
*edit* The silver ones I have seen here have all had pretty terrible build quality compared to the black. Gaps and raised speaker grills a plenty.
Silver is pretty sharp!
Black is well, black...kinda boring IMHO.:angel:
Black looks stunning to be honest. But Just stick to the silver.
Having seen chips on the black one in person recently, I will again say that stick to silver.
From my HTC One, right in your face....
Silver for me because I tried black unit. All my fingerprints

Returned my white note 4 for a black one

Hey guys so today i initially got a white note 4, but after owning it for 30 mins i noticed that there was a huge gap that stuck out like a sore thumb. I took it back to the original AT&T store where i got it where they acknowledged there was a gap but couldn't help me because "their whole batch had gaps." Long story short i went to a second store where they opened 3 other units (all white) and they all had gaps in different areas, but not as noticeable as mine. I finally went to a THIRD store where they had a black one and exchanged it.
So my question to you guys with the white Note 4's do you have gaps?
I have a white one with no gaps whatsoever. My wife has the.black one. The only real difference i notice between the white and black is the sliipery feel of the the back on the white vs the black.
The back of the white one feels like such crap. The back of the black one is a little better but it isn't as grippy as the note 3.
It's just 'luck of the draw' I think. I have a black note 4 with no visible gaps
Got Black, no gaps

The "soft touch" coating on the black Note 4 is sprayed on and easy to scratch and mar. That's one of the reasons I got white. It's not expensive to replace a scratched back cover but it's nice not to have to.
I am swapping my white for black

Eye41 do not care about the back cover of either phone, as I will definitely be getting the wireless charging S view case when I get my device

White Galaxy Note 5 Question

Hey all, I just got a white Galaxy Note on Tuesday of last week, I LOVE this thing and while I miss having root on my Nexus 6... I am still loving this device on the stock rom. (Packages Disabled) However, I am having one issue with the build and I am hoping this is just how all of the Note 5 devices are... On the back glass, where the glass meets the metal bezel on the sides... There is the slightest sliver where the white ends and you can see a sliver of black before the metal. Anyone else have this? If so, I am going to stop worrying about it. Lol.

On a white AT&T note 5 (n920A) I do NOT have any black.. the white back meets and joins directly with the silver edge trim.

Damnit... It's so small that I want to overlook it because I don't want to return mine and get one of the many other issues. Dead pixels, bad screen colors, etc.
What do you think guys? Should I swap it at T-Mobile? I picked it up in store so I imagine they'd just hand me a new one.

For 700-800 USD, are you willing to accept less than perfect? Your choice...

I made a big mistake, didnt I? (White Gear)

Ordered a black Gear a week ago, but they were out of stock, so I agreed to take a white one instead. However I'm starting to think I was stupid.
I work with a lot of chemicals and different type of inks. One of those being the same type of ink that banks use. You know the **** that blows up in your face and turns you blue like a smurf for a month if you rob a armoured van. I seriously doubt the watch is gonna stay white for long.
Any white Gear owners, (as in owners of white gears, not white owners of gears lol) that can pitch in? How resilient is it against dirt?
Replace my silver gear with a white one this summer. Had no problems with mine. Actually prefer the white unit to the silver one. Still clean as a whistle.

Anybody have an orchid gray?

I'm wondering if they don't have a lot of the orchid grey.
Maybe it's just bestbuy, maybe not.
How many orchid Grey's have been delivered?
Mine (AT&T model) was just marked as shipped today directly from Samsung.
I got one in from att yesterday I like it. Because you can see the contrast between the metal frame and the body of the phone.

I pre-ordered the orchid grey Note 8 from Best Buy, and had instant buyers remorse. I almost cancelled it and ordered the black one, but decided to hold off until I could see it in person. I saw it at a Verizon store this past week and am so glad that I didn't cancel. I liked it a lot better than the black one. I too like the contrast of the black front and camera alongside the grey.

I thought the same thing too. In ATT they only had the black one to look at. So I ordered the gray one. So I looked online and for a sec it looked like light purple and I said damn I screwed up. So then I watched a video on YT and I was like yes I made the right choice. You will like it its cool. When I had my Note 7 I had the silver one and I liked that one. It was kinda of like chrome. You will not be disappointed. Enjoy it.

I have the S8+ in Orchid Grey, and it's so beautiful the only cases I could bear to put on it are 'clear'.
Unfortunately, this time around in the UK, the only pre-order colours available for the Note 8 are Black or Gold. Went for the Black but would have preferred the Blue.
In some lighting there is a hint of purple but you really have to look for it. Mostly it's just shiny silver much like the note 7.
Got mine love it, but that all black is slick too.... I really wish we had the deep sea blue option
Preordered mine from Sprint, got it Tuesday. Would've ordered the blue, bored of the black. It's going to be in an opaque case 99.99% of the time anyways. There's a slim color s strip around the camera cutout in all the cases I have (so far), which is kind of a cool contrast

yeah I received my orchid grey ATT model Thursday from Samsung direct.
My tmobile variant is an orchid grey. I definitely don't want the black one and this look nothing like purple to me!

I got the Orchard Gray one as for the notes I have already had a black one, have had a white one which they didn't offer, and have had a gold one.
I still want my pink note that they offered several times but only in select markets. I hate when Samsung does that. Back when I had to turn in my Note 7 for the recall I temporarily ended up going with the iPhone 7 plus in rose gold which was pink!
I just wish Samsung offered a edge version and a non edge version of the Note 8's like they did with the S7. I would buy a non edge version in a heart beat as I don't like the edge screen and it's too hard to find a tempered glass screen protector that works with a case. Even non tempered glass screens it can peel.
I pre-ordered my Verizon orchard grey 9-2 and got it on 9-7. Works great!

Much less orchid than grey. It's perfect and fingerprints are definitely not an issue as black tends to be.

I concur. Definitely not a purplish color. Also not a fingerprint magnet. Good color if you ask me. I just with they had titanium as an option

I have the orchid grey on both note 8 and S8+. It's so much better on S8+

You guys at least get this option. In Oz it's just good old Black and Gold... Only the 64gb version too...
Seriously, they could've sent a few of the other colours out....
If we want Orchid grey or Coral blue we have to buy a grey import that means no local warranty and having to pay a but load more for it from overseas suppliers. We're already getting a$$ raped over the price - $1500AUD retail - that's about $1200USD, and we don't even get a choice over a colour... They argue that these are the colours bought here. Of course they are, little choice if that's all you get. That's almost like arguing the sun is really shiny but only in the day....
Samsung suck in that respect...
I have an Orchid Gray device. Got it from T-Mobile.
Love the color and contrast to the the front.
Don't like black phones and black cars as a rule, besides heating up in the Sun much more, but if had no choice, I would get colored case. As is I got orchid gray and clear case on top, looks good. I wonder why they limit colors for certain markets? Impossible to predict which color will sell and then deal with unsold inventory?

Yeah that deep sea blue is gorgeous, I'm pretty upset we weren't offered that in the states. That said, this black is really something else. Best looking all black phone ever made, methinks.
