Blue / Grey color discussion thread (US carriers)

I'm pretty sure this is just the blue version that isn't a true blue. It has been described as Grey, metallic blue, and several other shades. The first ever video I saw from the announcement event the cnet lady said it looked more Grey than blue.

Best Buy is still pebble blue. I think the color is different depending on the lighting of the picture. No one has confirmed the grey. It is only speculation.

I think you're right about that,. The color just looks different from the original press shots, so people think they changed color when it just looks different in real life.

Didn't realize the blue did not have the aluminum accent strip down the side.

Yeah, kinda wish it had the same silver color as the white model, not a big fan of the blueish-purple. Believe it or not after looking at this device next to the One X I like the look of the GSIII much more.

I like the sliver stripe and the white phone, but as my wife pointed out, the glare in the window would be horrendous. I use my phone in a car dock daily and a white headphone cord shows up badly. Guess it's better without it.
