Does anyone else have this?
Its the topaz blue S6.
Its really annoying as it kind of suggests your eyes that the lit button is blurry/unsharp ... really unpleasant to look at.

Gold version also has this effect.
Get a front dbrand skin for about $8 from their site!
Does your phone have it, or does every phone in the colors gold and blue topaz have it? The back light color is also not complete white but more beige /dirty white. A little strange because my S2 had a pure white led.

All golds I've seen are like that. I personally like it. The led colour is the same for all. Maybe it's more power efficient.

Black does not look good on LCD, especially when the phone is at an angle. White (light colours) look fine though, can the pull down be changed to white?

I don't know of any themes that do that. For me though, Black backgrounds look better than white on LCD. Whites look either too blue/yellow etc or uneven light.
Hello, I already pre-ordered my Samsung S6 Edge (Sapphire Black) but I was just wondering what people who have the Black Sapphire think about it. All my past phones were color black (unless there wasn't my option) and I absolutely loved my iPhone 4. I just love the effect of having a black wallpaper / turned-off screen when paired with black surroundings gives off (almost like the entire front of the phone is a screen where you can't discern where the screen ends). Since the Black Sapphire changes color depending on the lighting + angle, is that sexy effect still there?
Thanks in advance to those who'll reply and share their personal experiences.
Looks black in the dark and sapphire in the light. the effect is similar to some cars that look different colors depending on the setting.
I wanted to know this as well. I ended up preordering the white simply because i didnt like the way the black looked blue when the sunlight hit it.
All the videos i've watched so far were taken indoors where there isnt much direct light, which makes the device look darker.
when outside and with sunlight directly shining on it, it's noticeably blue...which imo looks ugly since i'm not a fan of blue anything
Not trying to change your decision or anything, but wouldn't a good choice for you to be to buy the Edge instead? It seems to have that effect where there's less of a discernable edge of the screen haha.

Yeah, that's what I've been seeing as well. I wish they just went with a Pure Black color, just like the White Pearl.

Yeah, I'm still unsure whether I'll be getting the Sapphire Black or just go for the White Pearl. I've never liked white phones but the Sapphire Black looks too blue in some light which (for me) just ruins the classiness of having a black phone. If they were going for 2 unconventional colors (the green and gold version) they should have just kept the black conventional (like the white).

Remember the blue S3? The phone kind of looks like that to me, just darker. It's definitely more blue than black, at least under normal lighting in my house. Definitely a sapphire color though, and not very subtle.
That being said, I like it, but I'd prefer if it was more black, with a blue sheen, rather than being a deep blue.
I actually really like the black sapphire despite also not being a fan of blue normally. When the light hits it it looks like a nice dark slate blue, and it doesn't feel overly blue to me. The front of the phone is also a bit more shimmery in that regard.
I decided not to change my pre-order for the Black Sapphire colored Edge. Been playing around with my friends' S4s and S5s and couldn't bring myself to like having a white phone.
To be honest I like blue as a color. I just can't deny how sexy having a pure black phone paired with a dark / black wallpaper looks. Well, maybe the changing colors might amuse me for a while... especially if some people I know gets tricked into thinking I bought 2 phones: a black and blue one
Guys but also you at the bottom of the display you see black halos?
I means like shadows where there is the back button, and down bar.Where the black stripe stops.
On watssapp, facebook, messenger and chrome this shadow it looks better, on white backgrounds.
I hope to be paranoid, but to all of whom I asked said yes, it can be seen :crying:
Thank you
I think you're seeing the LEDs from an LED edge lit display. The same issue that causes a "yellow" tint. The backlights diffusers aren't perfect.

Not all, only on the bottom and the color it's grey, like vertical strips.

I know what you're describing. I've seen it on one. I'm just telling you what I think is causing it.
I'm getting the S10e in a couple of weeks, but I'm still debating which one to get. Black? Blue? Green? Even the flamingo pink looks great, tbh. Any input?
They all look great, but my favorite is the green one, followed by the yellow, followed by the white, followed by the black, followed by the pink and finally followed by the blue.
However, I only had the white and black to choose from, since "ThEre iS No DeMaNd On OtHeR cOlOrS" in my country.
Go and check them up at a store and see which one sparks more joy in your life.

Thorough answer, 10/10
I LOVE Prism Green, but after seeing it in person that changed. Renders of both Green and Blue are absolutely lovely, but green looks dull IRL, and Blue has a strong tint of violet, if my eyes are to be trusted. Black looks best IMO, but looks boring in renders... agghhhh having too many choices is a burden sometimes.
I had the same dilemma, ended up with white. It's very slick and not showing fingerprints.

Not really a fan. No fingerprints showing is a definite plus, though :good:
You should see it in person in white color, maybe you will change your mind. [emoji6]

Mine is yellow ;}.
Got my yellow one today and it looks amazing
If you're able to see them in person, do that, and go with your gut. No matter what, you're going to second-guess yourself. But you'll do it less if you pick the one that feels right at first.
In case you can't see them in person: To me, the black looks like a very dark silvery navy (with some purplish-ness) from many angles). The blue comes out as very light silvery blue (with some purplish-ness).
The camera hump is tinted to match the phone's color somewhat. The blue one is a light-medium blue. I liked the idea of being able to see a little blue, even if I got a case that wasn't translucent. For that reason, I picked blue over black.
By the way, get a case!
Love my blue 10e.
I got the Prism Black and one thing i noticed is it does have a dark blue tint to it.
Went with Black. Will update you once I actually get it lol for now still stuck on a 6s

I love my canary yellow one. It is not the standard black,blue or white that's been there for so long.
No offence!!
The green was also a little "flat" to me too so only way to go is yellow.
Not everybody (guys) dare to take this bold move and make a statement that there should be more color options available to personalize it.
I took the prism BLACK one. It then looked better than i thought. I was suprised if i you turn the back side against bright light or against the sun. The back color gets brighter. Turns into a bright gray/grey-blue/grey-green color. But nevertheless, i have a back cover so i only see the black front bezel. I have no advantage of the overall color the phone has.
Even the seemingly black color looks very good. You get a grey mirror look on the sides and the back. Only the front is deepest black.
Alright, so I've had the Prism White and Black in my hands for a while now. There is one thing that really bothers me about the Black one: as many of you have pointed out, it is a very deep shade of navy. I saw a black regular S10 at the store, and I don't remember it being navy. Are we sure the colors between the s10 family consistent?
There are many "leaks", if all are true what color is everyone thinking of getting?
I am torn between a few of the leaks I have seen. The white looks really good to me, probably my first choice. After that it is a toss up for Bronze, Blue, Green.
What is everyone else thinking?
Copper.
Copper is definitely first choice.
Ive had a version of blue for every note going back to the beginning. For some reason I think Copper is calling my name. Its different.
Maybe I'll go with the black one. I put a Pitaka case on, so the color itself doesn't really matter at all to me. Maybe I'll do the copper so I can have a nicer colored S-Pen?
Copper, since its the same as my Note 9
Once you go black, you never go back!
I was thinking copper but I'm afraid it looks more like pink.
Black or white for me!!!

I'm with Shook, "copper" looks like rose gold to me so I won't be having that. Blue or black here.
Samsung chose some of the most boring colours for the note 20 Ultra.
The copper is horrid & black is boring.
I'll probably go for white, I had the Pixel 4XL in white & it was ok.
What happened to the Canary Yellow of S10e...Now that would have been a fab colour to have on the Note 20 Ultra.
Black, because 512GB
