before the dummies and demos came out, i thought id want the black. but the moment i saw the aluminum/silver one, i had to get it. the silver on the top and bottom make the screen just POP! while it seems like the black version kinda dumbs down the look of the phone and make it look kinda like...every other phone thats out there. and i meant the back middle of the case, where half is hard and the other half is softer so it can fold back on itself and stand. i heard a crease forms right were the hard and soft meet that doesnt go away. saw a few pictures and found it UNACCEPTABLEEEEEEEE.The black one doesn't have the same feel as the white one. The back seems to have some kind of matte like finish. I don't think I'm a fan of the texture and it looks like it will attracts stains and smudges easily. Gonna switch to the white one tomorrow.
As far as the case goes I did notice that it is going to crease and not stay flat, but that's not a huge deal to me. The phone feels so good I don't really want to use it without a case. I might just cope one with a bumper later on down the line as more accessories are released.
One thing I dont like is that the home and back button aren't as responsive as they were with the S3. With that, I barely had to tap it and it would respond. I'll just chalk it up to me not being used to the phone. I'll give another review after I've had it for a week.
