Seriously, I thought that it looked amazing in the early mockups that were coming out. I don’t see that it would have detracted from the experience anymore than other smart phones rocking the white bezels. The only real detractor I guess would be all the cameras and stuff on the notch, but for some reason it didn’t bother me.

I almost always buy black iDevices, but the white with stainless sides would have me ordering this in a heartbeat.

Oh well, guess we’ll wait until next year...

Don't like any color bezel on iphone x. I might not buy iphone x because of that top cutout bezel.
 
Seeing as they don't have black, only grey, I"m itching towards the white one. I loved my white 4S with both glass sides! Hoping Apple releases some black bumper cases for this one too.

Oh my I almost forgot about the bumper cases. Those were actually one of my favorite cases ever produce by Apple. Using them on the 4 was awesome. Still felt like you were holding and using the phone the way it was intended.

Back on track though, yeah the white has a lot of appeal. I may end up getting it over the black/gray.

This is a first for Apple though right? White body but black screen bezels?

I’m with you! I only buy black or Space Grey myself but there’s something really clean looking about this phone. I also think that fingerprints and scratches will be less obvious against the white.
 
I think since a small bezel iphone was the first with the x, it was not the best yet so even the blask one looks weird until we got to the 12 or 13
 
I use to be a BIG white iPhone guy till we got color options. I mostly buy either "black/Grey" or speciality colored iPhone (like TI blue or Natural TI). Black is my default now if I don't like the seasonal options.
