now that would be funny to have steve jobs presenting a pink iphone. and saying this is our more feminine line of iphones. Nice fat lawsuit for apply I bet..I don't think it's girly, and the idea that any colour is "girly" is ridiculous. My straight male friend got a pink shuffle, just because he wanted one, and he isn't "girly" at all, so, no, white is definitely not a girly colour!
The white iPhone is girly?
Well then I need to get rid of my car...my macbook...my house...my toilet paper...my dogs...cuz I am too much of an alpha male to want to look girly!

White isn't just for girls or for gays, its for anyone that likes white...though suddenly I'm thinking Reservior Dogs..
JOE: Okay, let me introduce everybody to everybody. But once again, at the risk of being redundant, if I even think I hear somebody telling or referring to somebody by their Christian name... you won't want to be you. Okay, quickly. Mr. Brown, Mr. White, Mr. Blonde, Mr. Blue, Mr. Orange, and Mr. Pink.
MR. PINK: Why am I Mr. Pink?
JOE: Cause you're a ******.
MR. PINK: Why can't we pick out our own colors?
JOE: I tried that once, it don't work. You get four guys fighting over who's gonna be Mr. Black.

Yeah im going with white since i like white devices and also just so it stands out from the older iphones there will be no doubt that it's an iPhone 4
guess i might have to look more into this..
I wonder which has a higher re-sale value
I would guess that black may be a little higher if there is any difference. I did the best buy trade in so of course they don't care what color it is
I'm kind of shocked with the results so far. Over 1/3 of people think it's girly. It's ok though I'll be on my 3rd white iPhone soon

what about Oreo color? can't we just get say the white. then buy a authentic back in black from dealer and change it and have a two color iphone now that would be cool.. think i'll make a thread for that
I agree. White isn't girly but alot of women do prefer the white over the black. A lot of the girls I know all want the white one with a pink bumper..
My girlfriend said it was, but that may have just been because she wanted to be the only one with a white one. I think that white is more girly because it goes well with girly colors, but yeah. White on its own doesn't scream girly.

I don't buy products to impress other people, I buy products to suit myself. I have no ego to maintain. Many people consider the Miata to be "girly" and I just bought one for myself (personally I have never seen a girl driving a Miata, but know plenty of guys that do).
I had a white iPhone 3G during my senior year of high school, and not once did anyone say the white looked girly.
Confident and insecure. That pretty much sums up the two different opinion groups in this thread.
Rarely do I wear all white. And by rarely I mean never. And there's never really a situation I'm in where I have to be "discreet" about my phone color
Some of you are really worried about how people perceive you based on your phone color. It's a little ridiculous.
I don't think the white looks girly, I just think the black looks more masculine.
But I think the flat glass back will make the white look a little more masculine.

yep. get what you prefer, but don't base it on some concept of what makes you 'better' hoisted onto you by society.
or impartial and insecure.
who cares what's more masculine? its a phone. get black because you think it looks more streamlined, or because its practical, or because black is your favorite color. get white because you like the clean look of it. or because it shows scratches less, etc. but to say you'd get a color simply because one is more masculine is asinine.
Link to where I said i'd get whatever color for whatever reasons? Link to where I said that there are no other reasons you should pick whatever color?
Calm down. op asked a question, I responded to it.
my Shuffle was White and i loved it, my 3G is black and its okay but you can see all the finger prints same with my PSP
This time All white = WAY LESS FINGER PRINTS!!!!
