Which color should I get white or black?

I loved my white 3G and I love my white 3GS. It's not a girl's color, it's a clean and classy color. Plus I know of at least 4 stores near me that white ended up sold out on launch day. I think there are less white ones made, so 1) they'll stand out more and 2) they'll be worth more when it comes time to sell and get the next iPhone. I got almost $400 for my white 3G even that was a year old!
Most phones are black,white is more UNIQUE,when you hold it in ur hands it will attract more attention
From an unscientific survey, strangely coincidental purchasing decisions and a measure of diversity (I guess) the people having black phones in my group are white and the people having white phones are other than white. Draw your conclusions from that
Personally I opted for the black because it doesn't stick out in a crowd as much as the white. Then again its in a slider case.

I wanted white this time but they only had black when I went in soooo I said to myself that I dident want to wait so I got black.
Bottom line is I am glad I got black because I keep it in a case and when I got my case I realized that white would have been a bad choice... The black looks great.
So it depends on what your going to do with it case wise in my opinion.

I have found people into the black car thing to be very insecure and possess
a real need for attention. White is just cool.

I had the white 3g and then bought the black 3gs - i don't know, the white was cool, unique but I was just feeling the black this time around.
remember, you can always get a case to change the look and feel on the phone.
I once had the white with a white incase slider on it - looked pretty slick. i also put an air jacket (black) on my white 3g and that looked cool as well.

well i'm not lol my grandparents bought me my 2009 Nissan Altima Coupe. It was a graduation gift!
Saw one macho guy come out of the Apple store today with a new white iPhone that he unboxed and started using. Looked good. He had a wife and kid, I think the wife had the black.
AGREED I guess All men who are kindle users are girly too? Haha
The color will represent whatever you like, Manly, Edgey, Superior, Sleek. I've had both Black and White and like both equally. I just went back to white because I hate using a case that stays on the phone and I didn't like the fingerprints on my black one. This works PERFECT for me. I used the home button cutout of a screen protector over the apple to protect it from scratching
GET WHATEVER COLOR YOU WANT sheesh.

I had black, now bought white.
I just bought a 32GB White on PAYG. My 3G is black. I had two reasons for choosing the white, one being that I really like how unusual it looks, and the other being that I still have 5 months of contract to go on my 3G and will be using them both. I wanted to be able to tell them apart without having to stop and check the storage capacity. For me only the 32GB makes sense, as my 3G is full to bursting point even though my media library is small.

I've said this before, but a white iPhone is more..Apple-ish. Plus, scratches are basically invisible unless they start filling in with gunk..
