picking up n6 today cant decide what color is the blue as bad as they say on youtube for fingerprint or is it not that bad
thanks
I have the blue and fingerprints are pretty apparent. So much that I usually dont want to look at the back lol. But even then, I don't know if the white would be any better. That being said, I could be wrong because I don't have the white. I'll be putting a d-brand skin on it soon anyway.

Thanks mate
I got the white one not just because the finger prints are apparent on the blue but also I like the silver metal surrounding the phone on the white more than the blueish tint on the blue one.
I would say go with the white, it is more elegant. Plus the display of the phone and its surrounding is black from the front so you cant go wrong.
I'd personally go with the white one but seeing how hard it is to get a Nexus 6 in a reasonable time, pick up one that has the earliest delivery date.
Blue is much easier to get if you plan on getting the 64GB variant. I was able to nab it the first week I tried to get the phone!
The blue nexus 6 seems awful for me and white as well,
Google where is the black one !!!
anyway, I'm not rush since I have perfectly working nexus 5.
I got the white just because im tired of dark devices that I've alwsys had. It's a nice change

Mine is Blue.. but its look like Black..
same here its blue but looks like black
White, have the 'black' model too
But i googled for available colors.. i found its available only in Black and White..

It's actually dark blue but it looks Black from far or in pictures, any ways I got a white note and I love it. The carrier I went to get my phone did not have stock at all but thanks to a miracle they restocked just hours before I went to get my phone but only in white. So I really needed a new phone (my previous phone is N97mini thorough nice looking its a huge mistake) and I wanted to get a white as black is so common and I'm truly sick of black phones so I wanted to get the white but last minute I chickened out and wanted a black or rather dark blue but I was forced to get the white as they only restocked white and I'm glad I got a white Note
Its a really nice change for once having it in white and so far no dirt or any thing like that, could be because the phone is glossy for the white so whoever thinking of getting the white do go ahead and get white, maybe be it MIGHT get dirty in the long run but it seems to be a quality white
Hope u guys have fun with your notes like me whatever color it is!

White.
I was looking for a black/dark blue one but the store only has the white on stock. I never imagined that i'll be having a white phone but im loving this.... The only complain i have with my white note is the back cover. It has smooth glossy finish. I prefer the texture of the back cover of the black note. It is easier to hold even it doesnt have case.

I initially wanted a White, but realized latter that this color is mainly used by women everywhere. So I got myself a Black Note! All my android phones were Black - never got any other color......
Got the white one, and the white flip cover. The blue/black version is butt-ugly
.....
Initially had the dark blue one and used for a month, then I was told the white also got launched, and when I saw it.... GOD... just could not resist the beauty of the beast so gifted the dark blue to my bro and now proudly flaunt the CERAMIC WHITE GALAXY NOTE.
I have the "black" one.

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
Sent from my Epic 4G Touch using XDA Premium
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
I have been debating this phone for a while already. To replace my Gnex.
What first drew me was the customization aspect. I wanted to get a Black front & White back (like my old Droid Incredible).
However as with my Inc the white back after a while got dirty quick.
You guys with the White X, have you had any problems with that?
I might just go all black since the b&w combination was my only incentive to wait for a custom one.
Thank you guys.
I've heard numerous reports of the white getting dirty quickly.

White matte rubbery surface getting dirty quickly? NO FRIGGIN WAY!!!
How is this a surprise to anyone? All you have to do is read one review, which will state the back is rubbery/matte
Due to the way they built the phone you can see dirt where the front and back are put together but a case would fix that
Thank you guys, now i'm 95% on getting it now. All black everything! 5% is on the HTC One, but i feel like i would have to really baby the phone compared to the X that i can just throw around (figuratively speaking of course)
You should try a white front. It looks really nice.

The white front never really appealed to me. Specially on the X. The black on screen buttons just didn't work out for me. If they had a Google Now look, if they were white or theme how Keylime is supposed to be an overhaul that looks like Google now and how it's unifying everything. then maybe a white phone... I'm so picky... -___-

Man, if they do that I'll be so sad. The current version of Android + AMOLED + black front = a beautiful thing
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.

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.
*shrugs.

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:

Not that bad from my limited testing. I tried pressing my finger on it, no obvious print; although there are slight smudges from (presumably) the previous person.

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

Aw snap, wasted precious minutes debating on which color to get...
Finally pulled the trigger on white thinking that I could always cover it with the bumper case in case I regret, but I didn't notice the ugly earpiece! :crying:
And I thought they were of the same material..

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.

We need more people who actually touched the device to get a conclusion. For me, the white one definitely feels like regular plastic.

Haha, talk about a divergence in views. Black and white is really split down in the middle
Please vote in the poll, did you buy or do you plan to buy a White Note 4 or a Black Note 4?
Why not include gold and pink?
Black FTW !!
Black Note 4 for me or White Nexus 6
black

White it's perfect
white yo
So far it looks like Black is twice as popular as White in this poll.
I've heard people say the black looks much better in person. I am planning to buy white on Friday. I've tried to look at pictures and youtube videos as much as possible, and to me the white looks better. Maybe it's just because I've never not had a black phone, and want something different?
I bought two different cases, a white one and a black one, just to see which I like better when paired with the white phone.
I prefer the Real Gold look but since that's a bronze gold and it wont be out for a while Black is the next best thing
I should mention I live in Ecuador and can't see a phone in person, I have to order via internet with a leap of faith on color choice...
I've seen both. I prefer the white.
Black Baby!

Yes. Not sure why they colored it instead of just leaving it brushed metal colored. Although, the black band on the black phone looks awesome...I usually get white until I saw that. Now I went black.
That's WHY i got the white. I like that look for it. If it was merely metal, I'd have gotten the black version.
