I used to have a white iPhone 3G, but today I made the switch to the dark side...
What I mean by that is... I just bought a black iPhone 3GS (32GB).
For a change, I thought I'd post a positive thread.
Like I said, I got a black iPhone 3GS today and I've only previously had a white iPhone. I have to say... I LOVE the way the black looks. I got white previously because it hides fingerprints better, but the thing I like about the black iPhone is, at least I can see the fingerprints and wipe them off!
With my white iPhone 3G, I never knew if there was fingerprints, so I would wipe the back anyways... then I didn't know if I got them all. With the black iPhone, I can quickly wipe and look... easy as pie. I found that even though I bought the white iPhone 3G to hide fingerprints, I still knew they were there, so it was a constant battle with wiping them anyway. So both iPhones are the same to me in the end.
A few things I noticed:
- The home button feels slightly different than the 3G
- My screen is even on both sides... I don't catch my finger on the metal bezel like I did on my old 3G
- My power button is slightly loose, but I'm used to that (they loosen over time anyway)
- Blacks are nice and black on the screen
- GPS is amazingly accurate on the 3GS... not so much on my 3G
- The compass is really cool to use in Maps
- Voice control worked twice in a row for me (Although it pronounces my last name wrong... hehe)
There you have it. I'm not complaining about anything here. It's all good!
The question is ex-iPhone 3G owners, did you get a different color this time around?
