i like gold
Another Sapphire Black user here. Although I covered my front screen with a Nillkin CP+ Screen protector so my front just looks black. I thought the sapphire black looked really classy with the metallic coloured edge of the phone.
Black Sapphire here too. It's a nice colour, going from black to quite a light blue in certain light. As for a fingerprint magnet, I wouldn't know. I have the official hard case in use with a basic SP and I'm happy
Wait for new Nexus or something else with a larger battery.
People won't recognize that it's an S6 if you choose black or white as the front looks like previous galaxies! I chose gold! But black is as sexy though!
Remember to put a case and screen protector as I've already cracked my screen from 1 fall on the road (at pocket level) and got scratches from daily usage(only 1 week old!!) as I've wanted to use it as is, but damn I was wrong!
Curse on Corning Gorilla Glass 4! They are $uckers and rippers and I won't pay to repair my cracked screen!

Lol well how bout I change that-
Try this: http://www.colorware.com/default.aspx
It's not free and you would have to send you phone in, but I know they can paint (i'm not even sure its paint, it might be some type of dye or film) iphones and blackberrys.
That or you could go ghetto and buy sand paper and a rattle can of white and go to town!
lmao 250 no way lol. thats a new phone right there

phone is really rather easy to take apart just 8-9 screws and then a guitar pick to pop the screen out...Is there an aftermarket replacement full housing or just cases

would really love to see the turn out!!!
look up hydrographic dips, I have done a few guns and some other things. Works very well.
Ok so here is what I ended up doing. I basically did only a white front skin. Since I didn't want to cover the back battery cover white, I purchased a frosted TPU case to kind of keep everything light colored. The back still showed too much black to make it convincing, but overall it turned out really nice IMO with a white case. I highly recommend doing this if you're craving a white SGS variant without the $500+ pricetag. The skin is good quality and I laid it on top of a new screen protector, and then put on the case. The skin has a back bottom piece & back battery cover piece that I didn't use. Overall, this makes the front of the Infuse look like a White SGS II clone (minus different soft key layout). See pics and purchase info below:

That looks amazing and will be the road I take, just curious if the back texture would make the vinyl bubble over time?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using xda premium
the texture of the vinyl or the battery back cover? The vinyl is relatively thick and sturdy. The front was flimsy only because the sides aren't supported with an inside until you apply it, but the skin material itself is pretty durable. I took it off and reapplied 3 times. There are a couple of very small bubbles that are only visible in certain light. I applied this overtop my screen protector so the results may vary with a direct application.
I chose not to apply any skin on the back of the phone. It still showed too much black IMO and didnt cover enough area around the sides to look like a full white phone from the back. So I do not know if a vinyl applied to the back battery cover will bubble. I actually like the OEM back design so I was going to leave it anyway. I opted for that frosted case which I think blends nicely with the front skin. For $13 total, I think it's worth the mod.
im actually in the process of figuring out how to pop this baby open. last night i had thsi wild dream where i spray painted it white!
now if the housing is just plastic, then i could easily unscrew the back. spray paint white with a glossy finish. then get the white screen sking you got there. its looks beast in white by the way. i was thinking going with all black. but the white just did it for me.
im gonna head over to walmart in a bit to check these things out. ill report on what i find.
---------- Post added at 04:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:19 PM ----------
okay so i got back from walmart.
so this i believe is going to be my set up.
for the back. im going to spray paint it white then apply a glossy finish to it.
and for the front a white skin.
im down to do it. then im not down to do. lol.
I am not confident enough to try and spray paint the back white, but if you are then that would be ideal I think. I wish the back was white, then the effect would be more permenant but I am pretty thrilled with the way the front skin came out looking so convincing. I'm think that the only way to make it look convincing on the back to to really color the entire housing. I would be curious to see how yours comes out if you get the courage. Unfortunately, the phone's curved sides cause any skin to leave too much black space that makes it look tacky on the back.
I'm gonna do it! I think... shouldn't be hard just time consuming.

Hey Optimus, I've actually done a lot of custom painting to various things on my truck exterior and interior, and my old iPhone, if you really wanted to paint your phone, you've got a couple options to make it turn out correctly:
Option 1, you could start by googling "plasti-dip", its basically a reversible rubber coating that you can apply without any prep work. Now I have a can in black from home depot but, I wanna say you can get it in white or other colors online, its like 6-8 bucks for a rattle can of it. EDIT: found a LINK This would be the easiest and way less time consuming. (On my truck forums, people have sprayed their rims and its apparently pretty durable)
Option 2, if you wanted to go the normal rattle can route, I would seriously advice on getting some 1500 or 2000 grit sand paper to prep sand the phone before you paint. It's a real fine grit and doesn't take much, really helps the paint stick. After a couple coats of white, I would spray some clear coat too. (Make sure you clean the housing before moving to painting)
Also another thing I had issues with on my truck interior was the textured plastic like the back plate on our phones. To do it correctly people had to sand the texture off till it was smooth, then paint. So IMO just leave the plate alone and keep the gray color and save your self from a headache of white paint chips after normal use lol (might be a nice contrast from the white anyways )
Hope this helps brah
i looked into the "plasti-dip" but i don't want it to peel, and for sure considering the fact that its going to be around the edges of the phone its gonna peel. so spary painting it is my other option. also i don't want to give the phone thickness just a make over. haha. i worried about the back plate being a *****... and i was right... lol. well i can always order a new one off amazon.but what im aiming at is this:
is it all fails completely. ill just spray paint it black. haha.

Ya the corners would deff be the first thing to peel, but I "plasti-dipped" my iPhone a long time ago and it actually held up really well, the only reason it started peeling was because I dropped it on concrete. But honestly for 6 bucks, its worth a shot, if you don't like it you can peel it off like a stretchy sticker lol Actually, you could do this to the back plate and spray paint the actual housing white, just a thought.
And ya your best bet with the back plate is sanding it down till it's smooth and the painting it should be easy cheesy, the sanding part is the ***** lol Leaving it textured would be a mess...
OHAI,
Well, I have got that phone scratched already somewhere more, somewhere less.
I am interested to paint it originally black, because I see no need spending 30+$ on new case.
Have anybody tried to paint that metal case black? Any tips of colour and lack? I'd go to local paint shop, but at first I am loooking forward of hearing any ideas.
Thank you.
Hey there,
I'd not advise you to paint it. From my understanding the case is coatet like eloxal.. but i don't know what excactly it is.
If you go for paint I'd guess that the paint will wear off quite fast. Another problem with paint is that its not lasting on aluminium (is it alu? at least its not normal steel)..
In the end it might be easier to buy a new case if you get that
hard work but here's an interesting thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1293207
I would use anodizing! It is pretty simple process to do in home but need some time. Might be more durable coating than the original and you can use what colour you want
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l4TAeCjVEhs&feature=related
I have done that couple times and it's pretty easy thing to do.
I got one tiny tiny dot on mine, which shows the bare casing, by the headphone Jack I got really upset when I saw it I always look after all my devices with great care, and was distraught to see the small cuff.
I tried using a black permanent marker to cover it up. It doesn't work well, as the ink is too dark, making a deep contrast.
It also rubbed off over time, so I thought, just forget about it

If you can get hold of metalic touch up paint you should be ok. We got a metal table for our garden and in the box with the table was a small tube of touch up black paint and it is exactly the same colour as the black desire s. You wouldn't be able to tell on my phone where it has been painted!
Thanks for tips and tricks. Also the anodizing way is very interesting and potential. Only thing I matter is "htc" letters on the backside. Anybody have an idea how to save them?

Hi everyone!
I've been thinking of getting a white Nexus 5 (i really like the black-white contrast, and even the white touch for the ear piece). On thing I dread, though, is discoloration on the white back side or turning yellow or getting dirty or ... etc, etc...
I know there have been some rumors that the white back of the N5 is prone to discoloration, prominent marks from wear-and-tear, yellow-ish spots and so on..
Since the N5 has been launched for some time now, can anyone with a white model share his/hers experience? Did you suffer from discoloration or marks on the white backside over time?
Note: I did search the forum for such a topic and I know there is one that discusses the differences between black and white versions. I just wanted a new thread that is focused on the way the white N5 survives the test of time and wear-and-tear.
Mine is just as pretty and white as when I received it on Nov 5. No staining or anything like that at all.
Just as white since launch. I put it in a case for obvious reasons and it's flawless. I rather pay for a new case than a new phone.
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
I can confirm that. looks like day one
I'll go ahead and back up what these fine people have said. There's no discoloration at all.
What about scuffs from wear and tear? How easy does is gather scratches (from laying down on a table etc)?
What about the black shiny sides? Do they gather scratches and dings?
Thanks all for your answers so far!
It all depends on how a user treats the device bro, some are more cautious then others.
My white one started to get some discolouration, especially around the corners (I used it without a case, but kept a pant pocket exclusively for it). Beware of blue jeans that fade, it does rub off onto the phone.
I've heard of people complaining about scratches around the black edge but mine doesn't have a single mark on it anywhere and I've never had it in a case (bought late December)
I throw it in my jeans pocket or suit jacket, never had a case on it.

Thanks for your input, @daisun! I'm sorry to hear that! Could it be possible to post one or two photos with the discolored or affected areas of the phone?
The jeans thing sucks. I had a white One X and, fortunately, I didn't have any such problems with it ...
The pair of jeans I was wearing were brand new and hadn't been washed ever, so it was at its peak 'phone staining' state. The discolouration is very very slight and you probably couldn't tell in real life due to shadows and lighting. It also doesn't show in photos because the whitebalance of the camera will simple disguise it.
I've since sold the white phone in case it discoloured anymore and bought a black one.
Put a case on it. Mine looks like the day I received it.
And for the record. Scratches on the side of a white vs black is shananagins

I have been waiting with you guys ALL year and ILOOME was the only company that tried and tried to get us a screen protector. After 13 prototypes they failed and gave up I see. Now almost a year later and with SG EDGE and S6 EDGE+ as well as NOTE 5 it seemed like all hope was lost. But I just found out a Chinese Company just released a 9H GLASS screen protector!! You can get then on EBAY today! The catch is there about $25 and they ship from China which means you have to wait up to get it. I buy from China a lot and I get stuff usually in less than 2 weeks. But thats me and Im special. ...If you do a search on ebay for Note Edge Glass Screen Protectors you will find them about 10 items down. Some sellers are selling them with S6 Edge. The glass has white or black paint on the tips to blend in. And you will see some are gold for the Note 5 and S6 Edge...Good Luck and Happy Shopping!!! I ordered mine today so I cant say how good they are or tell you the quality for that matter. But for that price coming from China it should be NICE!
I ordered one, and when I got it, the glass wasn't curved. Even though the picture showed it was. Seller refunded my money. Please report back when you get it and it's confirmed that the edge is protected

I actually found it on amazon and its coming in next day shipping. This way I don't have to deal with some BS from China or Hong Kong. It may be a little more expensive but with amazon backing it, I feel it's worth it.

Been waiting for these im tired of having this ugly protector on my screen
Well I just got my gold tempered glad protector in from the link that I provided above and so far I am loving it. The installation was a breeze just make sure you clean the screen well! The curves are perfect, texting works like a charm and swiping the edge works without any issues. It does feel very odd like the screen protector is almost floating which I kinda think it is. I'll post picture to follow but you can see there are small dots where the protector comes in touch with the digitizer and cutouts where the back button and multi task button are as well. You have to look really close or at a certain angle to see this and unless you were looking for it you wouldn't notice. The gold colored borders act as the adhesive and as I was pulling off the back seal I could feel that the border was the sticky part not the see through screen area. The only issue I am seeing with it is the colored border is a slight hair off so the led behind the two bottom buttons don't shine through correctly unless you are at a slight angle and the top sensors, the word Samsung, and the front camera are also slightly off. This does pose a slight problem when you are using the front camera as there is a slight dark area on the top left and the bottom left corner. I don't use the front facing camera so it's not an issue for me but those of you that take selfies I know would have an issue with this. Overall I typed this entire review with it and had no problems texting at all and I give it 4.5 stars out of 5.
Edit.... Just realized that due to extra thickness of the protector my Oem flip cover doesn't close all the way. Enough that it turns off the screen and doesn't wake up but it stays slightly open. Hopefully it will correct over usage.
Oh and the S Pen works beautiful!! It glides on the glass amazing and writing with it is like there is no protector on the screen on all.
Pictures! Open the bottom one and zoom in to see the dots.
I guess after the picture is taken the dark ring is upper right and bottom right. I attached a picture to show.

After reading horror stories about these types of cases when I had my note 3, I stay away from these style of cases. By horror stories I mean people saying dirt and sand would get in there and scratch the screen when you closed the cover.

Best part about the removable battery is that the flip covers didn't add a lot of bulk since they would be part of the battery cover.
I love the clear view flip cover case, and it rarely gets any fingerprints on it. Shows all the notifications on the cover. Samsung redesigned it from last year's model, and it can no longer scratch your phone due to a new raised lip on the inside. I have the blue cover on a blue phone, and it's really beautiful, the back of the phone almost looks like it doesn't even have a cover on it, yet it never gets any smudges on it.
I got the black version of this case. The time and other bits that were visible under the case had this "glow" around them ... ie. they made the clock and the rest look fuzzy. I didn't think I could deal with it so I returned it
Also, the always on display of the Note 7 doesn't work with it. I kinda like this feature of the Note 7.
I'm digging the case but it has its downsides. Not much functionality apart from viewing notifications (tapping it tells you to open the cover to view it) and snoozing and dismissing alarms. No AOD, although, i understand why, because the clock is in a static position. But what's bugging me the most is the background color. I can accept the rest but not this. You'd think it would be black but its not. Its grey instead and lights up the whole screen making the magnet and the strip that connects the flap to the rear very noticeable in indoor lighting and in the dark. In darkness you can even see the inner rubber lip because the screen is lit. Being an SAMOLED screen why couldn't they keep it pitch black and only light up the clock and notification pixels?? I came from a HTC 10 with ice view case and that was so flush and better looking than this and that phone has a LCD!
Still rocking the clear view but I really wish it would just have a black background that's all. You can't seem to notice it in video reviews or outdoors as much but once you see it yourself, you'll know what I'm talking about.

The blue version does not show the magnetic strip or the side flap at all when it is lit.
Only one disappointment on this case. No AoD. Maybe Samsung can modify the software to provide AoD also with the case closed.

Really? No silhouette of them? Wonder why it's happening with my black one then. I've read about it happening on the s6 edge sections too and that was with a blue case if not mistaken. I've ordered a UAG Magma anyways. I want the AOD and off screen memo.

I purchased the gold color case and I don't have the problem you have. The background of the screen is black. Not grey. And I like the case as it felt solid. I like the edge of the case with silicone around it. And i bought OEM screen protector to protect the screen, because my Note 4 S view cover scratches my screen last time. The Screen protector works very well too, not peeling up at the side.

Damn that ain't cool (for me) lol. I like the case too apart from the background color, makes it look a little cheap to be honest and I'm using the samsung screen protector as well. I've tried all the possible display options to see if it was one of them causing it. Reset the phone too, took it out and back into the case and same thing. I'll see if I can get some pictures up to show.
Edit: You can see in this picture I googled how it looks to me. Notice the silhouette of the flap and the magnet. You can also tell the whole screen is lit coz its plenty bright and if I lift the cover just a little bit to peek under I can see the background is grey
