I waited 1 week before titanium grey preorder started. Samsung knows that white color not so popular, what's why they try to sold more white versions with earlier preorder. I really don't like white smartphones.
[Galaxy Note II General] skivnit:
I have the whie one because thats the only one that was available. Now i want to swap ot for a blue . Problem is i have to pay for the difference :(
[Galaxy Note II General] c4Lvin:
White here. Grey looks great up front but those brushed horizontal backplate looks nasty...

Titanium N2 for me!

Titanium for me I change oil and tires white wouldn't be white for very long lol
[Galaxy Note II General] DarkWolfx:
I got the white one. Since I had the first note which was blue, I noticed phones with white color looked even really nicer.

Note that I have my note in 2, I'm just in love with it.

Intially bought titanium but then got the white lte version. Prefer the white as the colours seem more vibrant due to contrast. The screen just stands out more.

After almost 200 votes and and many posts, some interesting/amusing , nevertheless relevant opinions:

- Many users think Titanium grey is way more fingerprint sensitive ( well I think it also dependes on how greasy your fingers are :D )

- On a large phone such as the Note2, the white color makes it look even bigger ;)

- The white one looks too iPhonish

- The white looks too girlish ( some users said darker colors are more for men and lighter phones, for girls :laugh: )

- Titanium gives more of the "cheap plastic " feeling

- Different opinions about which one makes eventual scratches more visible

- Titanium is a more original / fresh

- White is more elegant / modern

- Some reports of white phones getting yellowish with time, also less durable ( needs to be confirmed , imo)

- Titanium is more business-like

- Some would not hesitate to pick a black one if it was available

Maybe more opinions to come ...be tuned...
[Galaxy Note II General] betoNL:
Btw, I am very glad I went for the Titanium !

Actually it doesn't look like plastic at all...it looks like brushed steel !

Thank you guys for all the input and votes :)

Titanium all the way :laugh:

White all the way. What changed my mind is all the African american males doing review videos on YouTube. If they can handle white then so can I. Not to mention way more people ask me about my awesome white phone over my friend who has the grey one and no one has asked him anything about it yet. People don't even look at it twice.
[Galaxy Note II General] betoNL:
Man..you make no sense whatsoever :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

It's not about what others can handle or think ..

it's all about what I think it's nicer....
[Galaxy Note II General] BarryH_GEG:
For a phone that's so big it's an oddity no matter what color it is, people thinking that color somehow changes that is kind of funny. The only thing people notice is the size. You'd get less attention using a hot pink SGS3 than a grey N2. This isn't a device for people who worry about what other's think of it. I bought it in white to match my 3G Note 10.1. The BT S-Pen only comes in white too.
[Galaxy Note II General] Sergio Espinoza:
Titanium gray!!!

No offense but l have always thought white phones are kinda girlish...

I sure that's only my personal perception...
[Galaxy Note II General] sh@h!d:

[Galaxy Note II General] expertzero1:
white is cool idc if its girlish but it just looks too glossy to me..

So i got the gray lol
[Galaxy Note II General] brooon:
The thing is (as mentioned before): Under normal cirumstances I would agree...but for some reason the titanium grey (which I used for some weeks as well) looks even MORE glossy and is (as mentioned very often by others before) a hell of a fingerprint magnet.

No, the white one looks "matt" in comparison with the grey one ;) and cleaner as well...so I selled the grey one and got the white incl. the original samsung case (white too). Coudn´t be happier ;)
[Galaxy Note II General] nkommuri:

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] duuurp:
Hey guys,

I'm most likely switching over to a small regional carrier, Carolina West sometime this week. They offer the SII and I can't find much specifically about their version of the SII. I definitely want to install a custom rom on the phone. What should I look out for to make sure it's compatible with the ROMS on this site. I believe they piggy back on Verizon so the phone may be the same as Verizons.

Thanks!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cosmic Blue:
Check out the bands used. If it uses the 1700 band, you will need to make sure that the custom rom supports this.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] droyal:
So for the last week I've been trying to flash different roms to see if it's the phone itself or just the current ROM I'm using. But I've come to the conclusion that it is the phone itself. It had already started to split down the middle a few weeks ago and so I put a cellairis case on it but that has made it almost impossible for me to take the battery out without destroying this thing. What is happening is that I wipe everything (Of course!) using smelkus, most times 2-3 wipes before flashing, I flash the rom and gapps if need be and then reboot. Well everything works good for about an hour, some times even a whole day and then everything starts to go buggy. My touch screen becomes non responsive, my soft keys don't work..nothing. I hold the power button to bring me back to the lock screen and unlock the phone again and it's working for a few minutes and then the same thing happens. My keyboard pops up when it wants to, i cant swipe through home screens without a massive stutter, nothing is functional. I've had it since Aug 2010 and i've taken great care of it but I know nothing lasts forever these days. Has anyone else ever experienced this and was there anything you were able to do to fix it? I guess I will have to break this case off of here and try to start with my battery but if that doesn't work does anyone have any suggestions? I know this has probably been brought up before but im at work and dont have time to browse through the millions of threads. Any help is appreciated!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nrvlljr:
I've had a similar issue (random craziness) when I partitioned my sd card and forgot to set swap to zero. Most of the roms I've been flashing recently have recommended a partitioned card so if yours isn't that could be it too. Hope you figure it out. Btw I see your from gville..I know your ready for the big dance this weekend...Go Noles..Lol.;)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] droyal:
Now that you mention it i think that might be what it is! I will have to go back and give that a try. Thanks for that man! And yea definitely ready to put a hurting on the Noles as usual! LOL
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] droyal:
So i got around to finally trying that and it still is acting up. I've tried multiple roms and they all do the same thing after about the first hour or so. Could it be my sd card?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AarSyl:
What size sd card do you have? My phone started acting up after I put a 32gb card into it. Later I found out that sometimes OG EVOs have even issues with those.

^ professional photographer over here nothing but the best for Instagram right
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] p5f:
I've only taken a few photos with the N4 so far,

Generally...

The S3 camera was brilliant inside in well lit shots (photos with flash came out awful) and the N4 can't match that,

The S3 was always slightly off with certain colours outside, the N4 doesn't seem to suffer this problem.

Things I've noticed...

HDR mode works better on the N4,

The N4 lacks image stabilisation which I liked on the S3,

N4 images look slightly less sharp when viewed full size on a pc (not sure if this is due to the lens, less sharpening or more noise suppression),

When viewed on a PC N4 images seem to have better colour in certain situations (for example, outside my daughters pink coat always looked washed out with my S3 but it looks perfect on the N4),

My S3 occasionally did funny things to peoples faces, made them look like they had been slightly distorted, I could never work out what caused it, it just popped up now and again in photos, not noticed this with the N4.

All my comparisons have been done on my PC and not the phone screens.

What? A lot of people find the Samsung/Touchwiz camera app to be more "feature-filled" than the AOSP one (especially prior to 4.2), so it's not ridiculous. But thanks for your contribution.

For the price this is a great device but if you use your camera a lot and want somewhat good pictures then yeah id stick with the s3 , some people say if you want good pictures buy a dedicated camera but that's not what people are usually asking , night time pictures aren't that great on this or I got a faulty device I guess

We all have our own criteria when purchasing a phone, it's quite refreshing to see someone who knows exactly what he wants and not fall for the hype. :)

I owned a s3 and decided to sell it, personally I'm very happy with the purchase. I prefer AOSP over any third party variation.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ajfink:
Ha!

Well said. The N4's camera is pretty average. It's not bad by any means.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dangerclose:
Had the S3 since release, I thought the camera was alright at best. The N4 isn't necessarily better but one significant thing it does better is low light. The S3 is the worst I've owned for low light pictures.

Lol. Not dictating as to how he/she should use it. But he/she said and I quote

" I only use my phone to take pictures"

so I wasn't dictating I was just saying its kinda silly to says "I only use it for so and so" when clearly you use it for a couple of calls occasionally.

Just saying tho. Didn't mean to start argument :D
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dellenrules:
If you're getting a phone just because of the camera, and it has to be android, I would get the HTC One X+

I buddy of mine had the One X and traded it for an S3. After a week he regretted ever doing so. He got the S3 for the camera features it had, but after a week, he realized that the pictures it produced were nowhere near that of the One X.

The Nexus 4 has an alright camera. I find it to be better than the S3 because it produces more realistic colors, but I feel it is nowhere on the level of the One X.

I had a One S. It has the same camera as the One X.

I traded it for an S3 because of the Screen on the S3.

The S3 is a great phone but the camera was one of the worst i ever seen. I was willing to trade it for a One X, but i couldn't find a One X owner willing to do the trade. They loved their camera too much.

I use my PC to do my picture editing so I didn't care about having those features on a phone.

I'm not saying the S3 has a crappy camera. It's quite good. If you haven't seen the pictures taken from a One series, then the S3 is probably the best phone camera you ever seen.

I personally prefer the Nexus camera and I wouldn't get an S3 just for a camera.

That's my 2 cents

Just sharing my experience.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarkRyoushii:
Switched from an S3 to a nexus 4, sold my S3 this afternoon and broke even (wasn't looking to make a profit in private sale)

Definitely like the nexus 4 much better in terms of design and speed, as well as the fact that I know it has a higher chance of being AOSP (as far as I know, it's not fully supported yet) and I know that Cyanogen is planning to stop development for samsung exynos devices that aren't AOSP compatible so it would have been a while for the S3 to see CM10.1

The camera is noticably worse on the Nexus 4, but not much so, I can actually take much nicer macro shots with this than I can with the s3. The screen is much more washed out, but after using it for a few days it's not a bad thing at all, it's nicer grey and whites which is what you see the most on phones (unless you opt for night mode settings).
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Riiquiem:
After everything we've heard now and how badly the nexus 4 is actually doing I don't see much sense in switching from a S3 or even S2 to Nexus 4.

Who cares about fast updates -> Custom Roms are the answer.

If Nexus 4 was actually well built and without so many hardware bugs so far, it would be a nice phone...

Planning on selling my S3 when the N4 is available. I am not too fussed about the Camera, but what is the feel of it like compared to the S3? I find the S3 quite slippy and not that nice to work with one hand.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EnemyOfGlaDOS:
While I still love the S3.. There's not a phone out there that feels better in the hand. This phone feels superb, and high quality.. Heavier than the S3 and def more one hand friendly!
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Esteef:
Coming from an S3 to the N4... I couldn't agree with you more. I take pictures both outside and inside but damn did the S3 suck at low light piks so much snow in the picture.

I took one with the the N4 and it came out nice, but the flash is very very over powering.

* Just don't consider taking Pro piks with any camera phone. They are both good for everyday use.

I love holding the nexus 4..... Feels very different from the S3.

Got the latest Archos Arnova 10d G3 tablet. Seems a pretty decent model for half of Archos 101 G9 price. Runs smoothly, battery time may be even better than on 101. Only screen has a bit limited viewing angle, though it's more than decent for maybe even the cheapest 10 inch tablet on the market right now.
[Gen9, Gen10 General] steve adams:
Looked like it was smooth and quick. Specs are a bit better than my g9 by the box, unless its a single core.
[Gen9, Gen10 General] Originalas:
I had 101 G9 in summer, so this Arnova 10 G3 seems lot smoother. It has one core 1,2GHz CPU that's newer and 1GB of RAM instead 512MB on 101.

Build quality improved a lot too. Glass front and metal back, instead of cheap and bending screen, plastic on 101.

Though 101 had a better IPS screen.
[Gen9, Gen10 General] steve adams:
Cool. I'm guessing the ram and the way the unit uses its power is why. Do they make an arnova 8" g3? I love the form factor of my 80g9. Its the most comfortable sized tablet on the market. I'm hoping that the x10 8" will be released soon. I think that's my dream tablet. Keyboard dock, lots of functionality supposedly very speedy and nice looking.

No. i said i dont see any physical problems. but i was asking about problems like checking dead pixels, checking that colors are right, checking other things that maybe require installing some apps for that, etc.
[Nexus 7 General] AngeleDei:
There are a couple of apps on the play store that can check (or help to check) for dead pixels apparently. I've not bothered with them and I just put a white screen on the N7 and looked at it. If I cant see a dead pixel, then I cant see the point of worrying about anything that my eyes are unable to notice.

All I did was

(1) Check the S/N so I could tell it was not a returned old version

(2) See if I could see any scratches or dents or any physical damage

(3) Turned it on and checked the screen had no dead pixels

(4) Checked for screen lift on the left

(5) Checked for light bleed

(6) Checked for any rippling along the sides

(7) Checked the OS version

(8) Checked the speaker was okay using the free film

That was enough for me. I'm a bit OCD, but I'm happy enough that its not got any obvious or reported issues.
[Nexus 7 General] vackraord:
Turn upp the brightness check for lightbleed in a dark room and check so that the screen hasn't lifted from the glass. Other than that there's nothing special you need to check in my opinion.
