I had a white iPhone 4 and then white iPad two, then I bought the black iPhone 5 because I though it looked cooler, however.
I still think the back of the iPhone 5 looks cooler, the slate is lovely and I like the black less reflective chamfered edge, however what I notice going back to a black device is that you don't notice the phone as much.
I know, this is a conundrum, because it was one of the reasons I had for choosing black - the bezel disappears, but, what you realise as a consequence of that is that, you no longer notice or enjoy the fact you actually have the device anymore, only the screen. Catch 22. It is actually nice seeing the device, the design, the outline and proportions. In anything other than bright light, you may as well be holding an android device when its black, you don't get to really appreciate the design.
So that is an ironic reason for choosing white over black - you get to see the design and bezel, which was originally a reason I had for not getting white.
Another reason for white is that you don't see the fingerprints or dust as much.
Im noticing the black iPhone shows up smudges and fingerprints and little specks of dust all the time, rather annoying.
thats some of my reasoning for choosing a white iPad mini - interested to hear other peoples reasoning
also going for a mini instead if full size because of the weight and size, and ability to pretty much do everything you can full size. Only disappointed about not being retina display - and am hoping the speakers are decent, good bass and loudness.
ipad mini is going to provide the iPad experience everyone maybe originally expected - a tablet device that is light, easy to hold in one hand for a while and read, much more convenient to use and move with on the go, I think it could end up being bigger than iPad very quickly
