Pictures: White iPhone 5

Added another photo comparing the color tone of the display compared to my ip4.
 
I got the white and love it, when I saw the black one in the store today it confirmed my selection. Not that the black is ugly mind you.

Trust me, the white is nicer. No doubt.

IYO. ;)

My black iPhone 5 is one classy and sleek looking device. Can't go wrong with either one, but glad I went with the black for the iPhone 5. IMO it is the sexier one.
 
Your images reaffirmed my decision to go with the the white i5. Thanks for posting these!
 
Could never go for white, there's a reason most TVs are black. Can't do with a big white bezel around a screen.

The white looks good until you turn the screen on.

the back plate does not go with the white well at all.

Stoked for my black 5, scuffs and all!!
 
most white iphones have that yellow tint was the same on the 4s, putting ablack and white iphone together it was always noticeable
 
I'm loving my white iPhone 5. It's refreshing to not see a black rectangle anymore.
 
Guys before you decide on the white go check it out in person. I went in apple store to compare the two, and it seemed a little tacky and cheap compared to the black. Just didn't "perceive"the same quality with its shiny edges. best way to describe it is tacky. It does look different than in the photos. Your mileage may vary so def go check it out in person

I would say the white actually goes *really* well with the back plate. It looks far better than it photographs tbh.

I will add that I was sold on the black and had pre-ordered one, but AT&T dropped the ball on the pre-order. So I went to the AT&T store this morning and scored a white 64GB, and I am actually happy that things worked out as they did. I think the white actually is the better looking of the two in person. Some times things happen for a reason.
 
I think the screen on the white iPhone is only an issue if you plan on watching movies with it. Otherwise, I don't care it the black 'blends in'. I'm not going to be staring at my iPhone for hours.

How can you say the back looks ugly? I LOVE it. It's the closest we've come to the MacBook-esque iPhone, that raw aluminum is GORGEOUS.

For me, it's not the aluminium, but the clash between the aluminium and the little pieces of glass at the top and bottom. It just looks thrown together IMO
