It was displayed at my local ATT corp store. They said that it cannot be sold until the 17th, though (figured).

The black on this version of the Note is definitely a charcoal version compared to a dark black like on the previous N3 or S5.

Not sure I am in love with this shade of black and may end up going w white now instead.

Anyone else?

The opposite. Ordered white first then saw the charcoal black and changed order to black.
Same here. I swear I stopped by BB 6 times before I could made up my mind on what color I really want. Tough decision. I go for black after all. It looks manly and the screen seems bigger than white :)

Maybe you guys are right. I'll go check it out again. It definitely is more of a smoky gray than a dark black.

Darn it...

While I like the white I ordered it in black cause (for me) it feels like the phone just disappears when I'm watching something. I prefer full immersion :p

Re: Just saw the black version

Anyone changing from black to white because of the actual smoke grayish color of the black?

Nope, I actually like the idea of it being a smokey grey color. I like all shades of grey :p

very true; this is pretty much why i did too. i like that immersion, and i just like being able to have the sensors/camera more hidden, and the bezels look smaller.

At the Best Buy I work at, we only got the white in stock for demo purposes. I was really leaning towards the white but I have never owned a white phone. I pre-ordered the black so hopefully it looks great in person!

Charcoal black looks amazing compared to the over done piano black. It's more reminiscent of the Titanium Note 2 and S2. And S3.

Added benefits of the charcoal black Note 4:

-Metal frame is not painted like the white version

-Screen looks bigger (illusion, which cannot be denied)

-More screen immersion, especially with movies and photos. The black bezels and frames seem to "disappear", especially in places with low lighting.

-More premium and executive look (possible opinion)

Lastly, the aluminum trim shines moreso on the black frame than the painted white.

My current Note 2 is white, cannot wait for my charcoal black Note 4.

The metal frame is painted on all the versions. No difference to my knowledge.

Pretty sure all reviews I read/watched mentioned the black not having the color painted.

I could be wrong of course, but a confirmation on this would be appreciated.
