Which colour? - Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everyone!
I am thinking to get an Xperia Z tomorrow, and could order black, white or purple online from Sony, or black and purple from o2 or get the white one from Phones4You.
Any comments about the colours, if the body of the phone shows marks with one colour more than another etc, would be appreciated.
Might also get the charging dock!
I think any special offers are long gone.....

Personally White, after going to the Sony Showroom in Tokyo and seeing all 3 of them I reckon the white is the best looking one. The purple is also quite nice, the black seems to show fingerprints on the glass backing a bit too much for my liking.

Only thing that puts me off the white is the black frame around the screen at the front. If it's going to be white I prefer it to be virtually all white. Except the screen of course. Just my opinion.

I had a purple one. It always turned heads (me being a 16 year old boy n all) plus its a great conversation starter. Marks aren't really that visible

That thanks button doesn't bite

I have a black one, my gf a purple one. The black is really nice, although fingerprint friendly. But with a black skin (or a new rom supposdly) it is a really great looking slab. The purple one is quite nice too, especially in sunlight. But for me the purple one is a little too ehh oldish-purple looking. I haven't seen the white one in person, but I'm sure it's still a great device.
Just go and see for yourself if you can

Notice the black front border around screen

Nexus S [i9023] Full-White replacement?

After reading the recent post about white cover for Nexus S, I googled a bit. So I found there's a full-white version of Nexus S, with also the edge around display in white:

}
But reading this it seems that only i9020A has full-white version, neither i9020T nor i9023.
So, the question is.. there's no way to get my i9023 totally white? I didn't find any replacement for entirely cover (back,edge,internal), but only for back cover like this.
Actually, if full-white version is only for i9020A, I'll never find replacement for i9023, but.. maybe you could provide further information
Vodafone Australia has both black and white, 9203

You'll have to wait until after christmas or [hopefully] on christmas. Nexus is the only camera I currently have that works. Which sucks being a designer and all.
I just remembered, I have a spare black nexus S 4G cover. I think I should spray grey as the basecoat then white over it. Afterwards get an engraving machine to engrave the white paint so it leaves behind grey google and samsung logo's
What you guys think?

I would engrave a perfectly sized android on the back in green.
Yup that's the Nexus S I own . It is REALLY nice to look at it. I do wish the front screen could be a little more white (like the iPhone 4s is ALL white). The black does compliment well but I wish I could have full white
***** EDIT:
I bought a white skin and case for it and posted pics in my thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1447778)... Check it out if you want to
I wish mine was white, kinda reminds me of when the black box xbox's were painted. I think a blue and white striped one would be pretty legit

I was thinking of putting more options to let participants get the choice of all colours. It's just that i want to narrow down the choices i have already personally made. Feel free to post your own opinions of what colour you prefer out of the available colours on sale. Although please take a vote on your favourite of the 3.
i got myself the grey
grey
I'd say the darker the colour the better. Every time I buy something white I always regret it a week later when it has a dirty-looking stain which won't wash off.
ONE OF EACH OF COURSE .. Daaaaaa
GET One of each and you can be matched with your fav outfit..
Now i know why i have two closets full of cloths and 1 CLOSET with nothing but shoes and so accessories ..
Blue. The others will be nasty after extended usage.

I would have got black if they stuck to the design of a grey shell that clips onto the device. For some strange reason they changed it to black on the black version making it stand out from the original design of the other colours.
Voted for blue....Love it!
i just bought a blue one in china

Best Moto Maker Design?

What is the BEST colour combination for the MOTO X that you have witnessed?
My vote is, Chalk back, Black front but with Metallic Blue accents. WOW!:laugh:
Note: personally I'm holding out for the wood back.
aw man...a thread has already started (and I googled and searched too!)
Please go here everyone.

Just built one based on your design to see what it looks like- you're right. That is a gorgeous looking device. Kinda kicking myself for going all black now.
Edit: Looks great with the woven white back too.
I went with almost this design. I chose cement back, black front and blue accents.
But I saw a dark green back with black front and black accents and... It looks freaking legit. Once I get mine I'm probably going to get grn/blk/blk shipped and a hold placed on my card so I can have them both in my hand and decide from there.

Love the white backs, but the ones I've seen tend to scuff/get dirty easily.

I went black front, cement back, gold/yellow accents. The cement doesn't seem to get dirty/scuffed, and the yellow/gold really pop.
I'm tempted to try out red accents, Blue back and white front... Red White and Blue! American colors made in America!

@leafsacc - I hate you for pointing out that color combo to me. I'm seriously considering selling my all black one and buying that one instead. It's been eating me up inside.
If sprint was able to use motomaker I would go with Crimson back, silver accents and white front. Then immediately after receiving I would place a Block O decal on the back lower third of the device.

Colors?

Really stuck between red and black. I finally went with black. I heard the back is glass, and that seems okay in black. If it was polycarbonate I'd have gone with red.
Why is that? Fingerprints will show up the most on black. The other colors will show less and white will show the least.

I ordered black as well. I don't want a flashy phone, so green and red aren't an option, and I personally think white phones are ugly. Black is sleek and unobtrusive.
My Z3C is in red/orange !

Congrats on your new phone!
I'm just wondering, how red is it really? I was frothing over the red Z3C, but some people say it's more orange?
I have the black one since yesterday and I find that smudges on the back aren't nearly as visible as I though they would be. It's also nice to not have a distracting bright rim around the front. I had a white Xperia Acro S before this and I always found the white rim around the front to be a bit distracting.
Now that I've seen how small it is I kind of wish I'd gone with green or red. However, it's not like you can go wrong with black. I like that the phone is a total slab.

Black vs White

Hey guys. Does this really happens with the white Note 4?

Yes in white note it happens but it looks awesome and more bright then black one
The reason for that is that white reflects light better than black, which is why the back and recent apps button look allot brighter on the white Note 4.
LOL yes, the menu lights are very bright to look at night times, on the white phone.
I keep mine off all the time so I couldn't say :silly:

the white looks ugly imo
Yep, the white looks terrible, like there is light leakage, thats why I prefer black, its cleaner and more defined, doesn't look like a toy.

Screens look better with a black frame next to them. It's been shown you perceive the colors as more vibrant and the screen as better quality with a dark versus white border.
Yeah Black is favoured amongst men, as its more masculine or some such ****e, but I love the White one anyway, both are excellent colours and its completely a personal preference.
Not about Masculinity for me, I don't have to compensate for anything, I just generally don't like bright colours, the brightest thing I own is my car and thats Silver with lots of Black detailing.
I love things that are classy yet understated, hate shouty.
When I was younger I loved shouty, I remember getting the Sony Ericsson W800i when it came out when I was in highschool, it was Orange & White with Chrome covering the camera area, awesome times I'd hate myself if I got an Orange & White phone now, would be too much for me, lol.
