Future iPhone 5 buyers, BLACK or WHITE?

[TheAppleGeek]

My 4 was black, and my 4S is white. I'm liking the back of the black iPhone 5 looks, but, we'll see.

You know what I would like. To have the FRONT of the Black iPhone but the back of the White iPhone. Would look awesome. I don't really like the contrast of the front on the white iPhone. I prefer it all black like a big piece of glass that will hide the sensors, cams and speaker. And the back will be all white like the 4S. Wish they did it like that instead of the 2 tone white front.

Maybe its even possible to purchase a black iPhone 5 and then replace the back with parts from the white iPhone 5?

Going back to black, after switching to white.

an all silver iphone to match the band would be quite awesome. Wont ever happen tough...

You'd think they'd do away with the pearl white iphone 5 and try Silver out..

Probably white seems better looking with the back imo but will see whats it like comes wednesday case the rumors are fake

All of my other iPhones have been black, so I think that I will go for a white one this time.

Black, if the design rumors are correct.

Definitely black

Bought a white 4S last year, and totally regretted it. I spent a fortune on cases and couldn't find one that worked with the white that I really liked. Definitely having a black 5 this time round.

If the Aluminum/Stainless steel/whatever chassis is just painted/anodized in the black, instead of just natural silver like now in the black iPhone, i'll be going white again.

Reason: if you drop and scratch the black metal, it will show you a nice silver scratch, extremely visible in black surroundings

If it's the exact shade of anodized silver on all of the other Apple products id choose that option in a second. Realistically... black. The white and "chrome" is very flashy.

Going with black this year. After owning the Galaxy Nexus and having a black case, I love the all black look. It doesn't stand out. I usually get white iPhones.

 

[Ayemerica]

as of right now...black. My 4S is black as well.

I've always preferred black, but withnthendark stained metal look I'm a bit dubiou now, need to see proper pictures and videos. It's gonna make it tricky to get my pre-order in on time!

Black for me, white just seems feminine as every female I see has white

Leaning towards black--I think I know why. My iPhone sits in idle much of the time, so the screen is black. Looks nice with a black bezel. My iPad, however, it on as soon as I open the cover, and I really like the white bezel. So device off, black. Device on, white.

The black is anodised aluminium. The same process apple have been used on coloured iPods since forever.

Since the colour compound is deposited on top of the aluminium, I can wear through or scratch off and show untreated aluminium underneath.

In short, any damage will be very apparent.

Due to this I will probably go white
