White Galaxy Nexus Pictured In New Official Images From Clove – Front of Device All Black

49

UK retailer Clove has posted a few more “official” press shots of the white version of the Galaxy Nexus hitting overseas in February. You’ll notice unlike the white G-Nex that was previously posted, showing an all white face plate (similar to the white Epic 4G Touch hitting Sprint in a few days), the updated images actually show an all black front of the device now with side moldings and battery cover receiving the new white paint job. Have to say, I’m kinda feeling this new version a little better but beauty is in the eye of the beholder. What do you guys think?

  1. Makes sense. Wouldn’t look good, a SAMOLED HD with black status bar and button bar on a white face…. this is better.

    1. Exactly. Can’t really salivate over the AMOLED black if it doesn’t meld in with a black bezel.

  2. making the back white,but keeping the front black just makes the phone look cheap,i would rather just get a black one.

    whats the big deal about having a white phone anyway? its the same phone…

    1. Imagine the Nexus initially came out with pink as its full color. Wouldn’t you want a different color than pink? Merely personal preference. 

      1. true,i guess when i think about white phones,i think about a white iphone,since thats the first time it was really popular. then i always think about how angry/impatient people get about not having the white ihphone yet,and it seems like its just a bunch of people making a big deal out of something thats really not that important

    2. What’s the point of having a red Ferrarri instead of a black one? It’s the same car…

      It’s about options. Ideally phones would come in various colors and you could get the color you prefer. Right now all they can do is black and white due to popularity but one day we’ll have devices that can change color on demand.

      1. right,but thats a car,which is a little bigger deal than a phone

        1. I use my cell phone more than I use my car…

      2. I think it’s more to do with production costs than popularity.

    3. There’s no such thing as a black Galaxy Nexus O_o

  3. the black front looks much, much better! We shall see if this ever comes to the USA…

  4. reminds me of the acer liquid.
    the white liquid had a black front and a white back too.

  5. White NEVER looks good on a cell phone.

    1. No, you just have a poor fashion sense. Rabid geeks seldom understand fashion.

      1. White is so hot right now…

        1. “Hansal. He is so hot right now.”…yea that is what I got from this comment.

          1. Great Zoolander quote!

        2. And it’ll look SO awesome under my purple silicone case!

      2. If you have such great fashion sense you would know that you don’t go white after labor day.  ;b

        Not to mention accessories in white would be very difficult to coordinate without making yourself look like a christmas ornament.

      3. White makes you look stuck up and pretentious. But most fashion freaks are so that would make sense.

    2. For those who have experienced it,
      if the white is as beautiful as the Original Galaxy S i9000 (labeled as i9000 CERAMIC WHITE)Then we have a winner. …..

      However if the white is anything like the white version of the Galaxy S II then fail….sgsII White was tacky and cheap…sadly..

    3. I’d have to agree. White is for iPhone fan boys. Girls can pull it off though

    4. my classmate’s sister makes $76/hour on the computer. She has been fired for 8 months but last month her check was $7627 just working on the computer for a few hours. Go to this web site and read more… LazyCash5.čom

  6. I wish it was 100% white! It still looks sexy. I hope ATT gets before galaxy s lll is out on us shore.

  7. I wish it was 100% white! It still looks sexy. I hope ATT gets before galaxy s lll is out on us shore.

  8. Would look better with the front face white too. Wish I had a SGSII white instead of the black.

  9. I haven’t looked at a white iPhone to see if there is a difference in how they do it compared to how Samsung does it. I had to keep the capacitive button lights off on my white skyrocket. Not sure if it’s paint that’s used or glass coloring but the lights were too much for it.
    I think I like the black face/white body. I just got a galaxy nexus and would gladly trade for a semi white version.

  10. why cant they make the white phone actually white?
    they always leave the front black

  11. I dont care what color it is, I just want it on T-Mobile in an official sort of way… I don’t think i’ll ever get my wish :'(

  12. Umm, only one side is white? BOTH sides should be white!

  13. Umm, only one side is white? BOTH sides should be white!

  14. Umm, only one side is white? BOTH sides should be white!

  15. Now tell me how a dumb color affects the performance of the phone?

    1. The same way a HOT color effects the performance of a sports care.

  16. We just got the white epic 4g touches in store today, and oh my god that is one sexy device. Way better looking than that galaxy nexus in white.

  17. I think an All Black GNex would be so hot

  18. it just don’t look right, it should have been all white or plain black.

  19. Meh more partial to black myself, I’m going to be putting an otterbox on it anyway.

  20. i want my SGN red :) 

  21. Ill get this in white, and charge it next to my white skyrocket.

  22. For those who have experienced it,
    if the white is as beautiful as the Original Galaxy S i9000 (labeled as i9000 CERAMIC WHITE)Then we have a winner. …..

  23. Why couldnt verizon have had this at launch!?!? Im sad now

  24. Watch out Samsung. Apple probably has a patent on the color white.

  25. They didn’t mention that there is also a titanium-silver version. If you’re the type of person who likes to pay way too much for something because the Ritalin hasn’t kicked in and you can’t wait a week or two and pay normal price (like the wonderful people I sell Xboxes and Playstations to before or on release day for thousands of dollars), you can order the 32GB titanium-silver SIM-free version from Handtec for the low, low price of $932. The white 16GB version is only $772. smh

  26. Very good. I like it very much

  27. all white would have made far more sense and look better.
