SGS3: Pebble Blue or Marble White?
So I am having a hard time deciding which colour to get so I thought I'd get your opinion on this.

I am going to be selling this phone within a year too, so what colour would be more popular to get?

Personally I was going to go for the white, but the blue looks so much nicer...

I was going to say blue! my friend just got the sgs3 and i thought it was more of a purplish blue, but I assume were talking about the same colour. I really like it. Its pretty gender netural too.

But if youre going to sell it, i am thinking white might be more attractive to people?

ALSO: hit me up when youre going to sell it lol. I bet Ill need a new phone and Im too cheap to buy new ones

Haha.

I was also thinking white would be easier to sell.. but does white get dirtier (permanent stains) easier?

My samsung galaxy ace has a white back plate, and although i use a case most of the time, it doesnt seem like its getting any dicolouration at all. its hard pastic and looks like it would be hard to stain.

personally i think white phones just look huge. maybe because of the stark contrast of the black screen (when off) and the bezel, but it looks way bigger than it is. White may sell better, but i do agree it gets dirty really easily. This is easily compensated for with a black case or something.

about the colour of the bezel, ie. comparing the one x and then gnex side by side, its about the same, but the one x looks HUGE cause of the white bezel, while my gnex looks smaller and just like one slate altogether cause its black. i've played with the pebble blue one which is SLIGHTLY bigger than the gnex, but i've also heard that there is other colours coming out soon, so if you're down to wait and see...

so if it were me, i'd get the pebble blue. but then again if it were me, i would also not get something other than a nexus.

but thats just my 2 cents.

Go for white. My HTC One X looks amazing in white and I've also seen a white SGS3 (not held, but seen from a few feet away) and it looked good too - I definitely prefer the HOX though . SLCD2 > *. I haven't seen the blue SGS3 but I can't imagine it looks as good.

I saw some leaks somewhere citing that JB will be out very soon for SGS3.. in a month or so...

I could always root it but TBH, it is blazing fast and doesnt need to!
