A large percentage of your posts are thinly disguised advertisements for Spigen products. Do you work for the company?

Even though the note 2 has been out for a week now..

I feel bad for anyone that is actually bothered by the logo, I don't even notice mine so I never think about it.

Its upsetting but I dont stare at my button a lot. I haven't tried this but the guys at best buy said rubbing alcohol will safely remove the logo (again I haven't tried this myself)

LOL! That made me laugh cause I was just thinking of trying the same thing. The nice thing is I already ordered a button sticker and got an International Note 2 back off ebay for $2. So long Verizon branding!

Hahaha I admit I've become a big fan of spigen but no I dont work for the company. Maybe I should apply! Wow must say this is a first

sorry folks, covering the button with an "aluminum sticker" is like the mud covering rudolph's red nose....not really going to work and i think it's going to be goofy looking. post pics when you get them on, i'm sure i'm not the only one who's curious.

I agree. See the link below for a picture of one. IMO, it doesn't look good. Don't like how the button is no longer flush with the phone and that it covers the silver trim around the stock button. Looks rather bland too. I think the logo on the button looks better. It's subtle, but at the same time gives it a distinctive look compared to other Note 2's. But, hey if a button cover floats your boat, who am I to judge? It's just not for me.

How is there no obligatory "Post your homescreen!" thread yet?

Yeah, that sticks out....cant stop looking at it......jumps out since the the button is a different color than the phone.....as for me, no thanks....

Am I thr only one that doesnt really mind the button branding? Maybe I'm just used to Verizon branding on the front of all their phones

Nope, you're not the only one. I don't even notice it but the flip cover hides the front of my phone 90% of the time anyway so it really doesn't bother me either.

Doesn't bother me a bit, hardly ever notice it to be honest and when I do I'm usually looking right at it when not using the phone.

Here's a look at the button.

Quick look: Spigen SGP Aluminum Home Button

Nope, doesn't bother me either. Hell, it's actually smaller than some other branding on other devices.

Its not the home button but the back of the case that bothers me.

**John Campbell** · 12-06-2012, 05:03 PM

For the back of the case get one of the Samsung flip cases that actually replaces the back or you know, a case. As for the home button, is anyone else pissed it doesn't light up when the menu button and back button do? That logo would look sex as hell glowing white instead of being a dark spot. Just saying!

I have the Seidio Active case. As for the VZW home key, I never noticed it till now. But that is a great idea to light it up.

I am not bothered at all by it. What would bother me is if the home key took me to a VZW store or website.

Why not paint it with nail polish?

All the nail polish I've seen clash with the titanium color of the phone.

I thought i would be peeved with the Verizon branding at the bottom, but it's barely noticeable.

While I don't care for the branding at the bottom, I just can't justify spending $10 on 3 aluminum covers, especially since I will not be using more than 1 and could care less about pink on my phone. If they offered a single one for say $2-3 then I would maybe take it.
