The new Samsung Galaxy S3 - white or blue?

Post by Avalanche »

Soo I got an upgrade on my Vzw line to get a new phone. Currently got the Samsung Galaxy S, looking to get the new one that is coming out soon. However, I cannot decide between getting the white or the blue version? What would you people choose?

How was the phone? I had to preorder it through Verizon because after buying it after June 28th they would convert my unlimited data plan to their new 2gb limit.

and original post edited :p

It was really responsive, i liked the style and sleakness.

I didn`t get the hang of the Camera right away, but its probably just because i was too used to the HTC.

I honestly think im going to get it when i get back to Canada.

So apparently we get a dual core version as the quad core is not compatible with LTE (4g in north america?). I'm sure this won't be noticeable in everyday use, maybe in a year or two when some incredibly extensive games come out for phones but even then..On the flip side the dual core version has 2gb of ram instead of 1gb on the quad. Then there's a Korean version with both quad core and 2gb ram (wat?).

Anyway go with blue. White shows dirt very easily. I'm gonna upgrade from my galaxy S to the S3 probably as well. I'm running slim ICS and I get about 200~ mb ram free after using task killer, can't imagine how 2gb of ram will be useful =s

That dual core bit for the US is really making me rethink the preorder. However, then I see the 2gb of RAM and I'm okay with it..

somewhat.

I have the blue one and it's an awesome phone :) Everyone here agrees it looks much better than the white one but it's really up to you =]

It's my first real smart phone so I don't have much to compare it with but I used my friends phones a few times and it does feel more responsive than theirs (which are iphone 4/galaxy nexus/windows phone). The ratings are much higher too.

If it's true you're getting a dual core though then I don't know though :/

I like white in general, but white isn't a phone color imo. Blue looks cooler. I like the scratched metallic look it has.

Damn. I like the blue, but I already have an S2, won't be upgrading any time soon. I wonder what the Quadrant score would be on the s3. I hit 4000 on my stock S2, S3 should be able to break 7000 i think.

Depends on which model.. There's like 3 diff ones, US version has dual core while international has quad core, but we got more ram. Either way this phone will blow most phones out of the park. I wonder how it will fare against the HTC One X

I've had my Galaxy S for over a year now and I've never had a case on it. Makes it bulkier and harder to put in my pocket, really annoying.

I think the change to 2gb and dual core is a waste. I barely go over the 600mb ram so 2gb is overkill.
