Any fellow Belgians know which store in Antwerp this was sold in? I'd like to check if they still sell it or if the guy responsible for the sale has been fired :)
 
I do thnk they look great in white.
It's a shame that it's this late in the iP4's life cycle that it's being released but they must have perfected whatever was holding it back ready for the next release.
 
I wish somebody would take a photo of the dock connector and the headphone jack to see if those are white as well (they should be).

If it's anything like Apple's other white products, every part will have a different shade of white after a while.
 
I'm sorry... it's just ugly. Now, if the screen defaulted to a matching white as well then perhaps it'd look better. In the meantime I'll stick to the black monolithic unit.

Could not agree more. The White iPhone looks like a cheap piece of garbage.
 
I've got a white front panel from eBay and the thing that annoyed me the most was that the white point on the display almost NEVER matches the white of the front panel. Depending on lighting, the display is always either blue or yellow tinted.

There shouldn't be any paint on the display... You must've gotten a crappy front panel. I've had several. All had 0 display issues.

Not paint, point.

With a black bezel, the whitest point of the screen looks like white to your eyes.

With a white bezel, the bezel is the whitest, so white on the LCD never looks white. it usually looks blue or yellow.

OH, I see what you're saying now. Yeah, the frame is always whiter than the glass, at least after a while, since they change colors after a while. My frame, front panel, home button, and back panel are all different shades of white. Were all the same when I first got them. I'm assuming that the real white i4 will be the same way.
 
sell it to me ill buy it rite now message me
I can confirm the sale of white iPhone 4's here in Belgium at a couple of retail stores. Just picked up a 32gb model this afternoon.

After all, I prefer the black model. Anyone interested? :)

I think he's saying the white point of the screen itself is not as white as the surrounding bezel. Which I"m sure is true. However, the same could be said about the black point compared to a black bezel.

Works both ways though, black on the display of the 'old' iPhone 4 never looks quite black with the black face of the phone.
