Black. No matter what don't get white. It is a less sift touch material in the back and the white front looks cheap and shows too much contrast on the screen. My black phone is forever amazing me because the screen looks peeled to the edge. A much better experience IMHO

I actually got white but I am contemplating returning for the black. I actually like the white front because it doesn't show fingerprints and lint as much as the black one my co-worker has. At the same time, the back is much more comfortable and provides a better grip on the black version. I'm just trying to decide if it's worth the 35 dollar restocking fee or if I should just stick with white.

Not worth paying but you can yell about the phone glitching or something and get a new one.

You think they would give me a black one if I did that?

Black. Looks great with the amoled screen.

I got a black t mobile one. It was the only option at the time. But it was the one I wanted anyway

I bought a White one from Verizon earlier today. I love the aesthetics of it.

I got white. I always had black phones. White kinda stands out. Everyone thinks its iPhone lol but not in millions of years.

It's either:
1) google employee exclusive
2) a really good optical illusion
3) reflection from the light box
This is already being discussed in another thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1962811
I'm pretty certain if it was white the face(? lol) would be white too, it's probably just a reflection. Although in my local Phone Shop they have a Nexus 4 wall and it advertises black and white.
I only like white versions if both the front and back are white. Hate the zebra look

Correct me if im wrong but the U.S (Blk) version of the Gnex was released in Dec 2011 and the (wht) version was released 2mon later Feb 2012 over seas ?? Thing is i bought my white GNexus from NEGRIEL ELECTRONICS for $600.00+ so even if they release a white one its going to cost almost double! so now theres 2 things u can do.. buy the black version and when/if the white comes out buy the 'back glass plate' separate and switch it oput buy unscrewing the screws on the bottom of the phone.. or just wait for the white version.
I believe theyll make a white version (see attached pix)

I am wondering if £220 is the price that Google sell it to the CPW for... that price showed up in their system a few days ago (before the launch).
Seems crazy to up the price by more than £100, but people will pay it. It is still quite cheap compare to other phones, if you don't know what Google sell it for...

Black or White?

My upgrade is coming up and I am definitely getting the One. I do not want another Samsung because of the build quality but Idk which color to get. I heard the black one attracts fingerprints but I will most likely have a case on it. I've had black phones my entire life but I am leaning towards the silver. People who own the One, which one looks better?

The black HTC one is not available yet for Sprint so you might not get many responses (since this is a Sprint HTC One forum). You may want to ask your question though in the general HTC One board. For what its worth, I have played with a working version of the silver and a dummy of the black and I am holding out for the black one. The black one is suppose to be available in a few weeks so if you want it now, the silver is your only choice.
Silver because that's the only color HTC would hook me up with.

My previous phones have also been black, so I got the silver to change it up. If you get the silver I don't think you will regret it. I am definitely not.
Sent from my HTCONE using Tapatalk 2
I've never had a silver phone, but coming from the AT&T GS2 skyrocket the bare metal look of the silver really compliments the build quality.
I've always had black phones. But I decided to go for silver. Not regretting it.
I was going to hold out for the black, but I also knew I was going to get the HTC hard case for it. Once I saw one with the case on, I realized you can't tell if the phone is black or silver so I grabbed the silver one.

Alright thanks guys. I wasn't aware of the unavailability of the black One but it looks like a lot of people like the silver one regardless. I'm going to have a case on it either way so the fingerprints on the black wouldn't matter but I've had black the whole time so I'll get silver. How is the One for the people that have it? Any problems with it yet?

Silver looked way better. The black one is so dull and boring. I thought it was a Blackberry10

The black isn't bad looking but the one i got to use a few months back like went out of its way to suck all the oil from my hands and lather itself in it. The silver one is shinier so you don't notice the oil nearly as much. Also I'm sure scratches will show up way more prominently on the black version.

I'm jealous of all you people... I hope all the black wears off and you end up with silver Ones.
Lol. I'm not trolling, I'm just playing.. I really wanted a 64GB black one (black One?), but unfortunately the ONLY version Vodacom SA got was the 32GB silver. Still, I honestly can't complain, and regardless of the colour I still feel a little grin creep up every time I stick my hand in my pocket and feel a nice cool, sleek, sexy aluminium beast in my pocket.
Got the black 32gb its been in a case since it was first taken out of the box, my only concern is the camera lense issue that seems to be cropping up on users.

What colors did you pick!!!

I just ordered my Moto X! Super pumped!
I went with white face, blue back and the orange trim. I'm a Hugh Broncos fan, so match up pretty well. I have to say having the option to chose so much makes this phone so much better. I'll post picks on Monday once I get it!! Can't wait.
Color choices, and if you want why?

I'm probably not going to get a Moto X but if I did I'd totally get some sort of wood flavor. The phone is absolutely gorgeous with a wood back either dark or light. It's so temping though. I'm trying to hold out for either the LG G2 or maybe a Note 3. idk. I have a Optimus G Pro and totally love the large screen. I've also been playing with a S4 Active but I don't think I could go back to anything smaller than 5" screen. But ya... if i did... WOOD!
White. All white. The only other colour available in the Great WHITE North here (either Black or White).
For those of you that have one already, is there a noticeable raised edge around the glass? Or is the whole front of the phone flush and smooth?
wait how the heeellllssss are you guys getting your X's? Did anybody from USA already get it? and how are you guys using the moto maker tool?

[Q and advice request] How to clean up my white gear?

Guys my rose gold - white gear getting dirty. White is darken, Grey spots via dust maybe my shirts fabric color etc. Idk.. Its very dirty and darken white now..
How can i clean and whiten that? Ps: Water, soap, dishes soap, dont work..
I have exactly the same issue. I'm not sure it is dirt and fear it may be a reaction to the UV light as noting will shift it and one strap (the one with camera) is significantly more discolour than the other, which happens to be the side that faces out more. I have contacted Samsung and its going in tomorrow, I'm expecting that they'll replace the strap as it is almost a disgrace to wear now after only about 6 weeks. I can let you know how that goes if its useful? My main worry is they'll replace it and it just happens again

Note quite the same maybe, and bad news, but I had the White Ice Nike Fuel band and ended up trading it in for a Black Ice model, due to "dirt" and discoloration. Since I am in business, I opted for the black on black Gear, but I did get the white Note 3, since you can replace the back cover easily if it was to happen to that. Good luck sir with a fix.
