I was wondering if we could have anyone here post pictures of what the branding on the phone looks like for different carriers?

Just wanted to see how big and or small some of the companies put their logos and where they're at on the phone.
Purely a curiosity aspect =P Obviously this makes no difference on my thoughts of the phone (already ordered through AT&T) i was just curious.

There is no carrier branding on the T-Mobile version, thankfully! :)

There is no carrier branding on the Sprint version. A first for any Sprint phone we have owned.
 
Got my AT&T last night so here's the branding on it. Very minimal as usual.

Sprint has been good about this recently, my G2 doesn't have any sprint logos nor does the G Flex so it looks like new sprint phones going forward won't have any branding. I don't mind ATTs approach since they have a subtle and decent looking logo that is tiny, but god Verizon's branding is absolutely horrendous. The massive logo on the M8 is terrible, their logo on the One Max front bezel was awful as was their logo ruining the front of a nice phone like the G2.

It isn't that big, and Thank God they didn't make it black. I think all the branding looks decent.

Yes, it's quite subtle! Hell, I remember having a clamshell phone that would display VERIZON in red on the outer screen while I was on a call, so everyone could see.

nothing beats the verizon logo being on the home button for the note 2. if they could somehow put a small person in all their phones that just yelled "VERIZON 4 GEE LTEE" whenever anyone walked near the phone i am 150% sure they would.

the att globe branding has been a nice change for att. looks pretty decent and is almost not noticeable on most devices. it also looks printed onto the m8, is the verizon logo similar in that way? if so, one could probably remove it with some rubbing alcohol and some elbow grease.

Agreed. I would rather have a logo on the outside of my phone than all of the crap they preinstall on it.
