Man I don't really want to sound rude, but since when someone needs a forum topic to decide which "colour" (as you should know as an artist/ graphic designer that neither black nor white are colours, they are the absolute lack of it) to choose. That's strictly a personal opinion/matter of taste and has almost no impact on the amount of work you're going to do on it. Unless the bezel is a neon.

The strenght of your art/design comes from your mind and skills it has learned/obtained, not from a dark or light ipad bezel.

I'm an artist myself and I've chosen gold, simply because it's fresh and I preffer a white bezel iPad, but would never pick a white iPhone, those for me have to be black.

Can we please go back to solving world class problems now...? ;)

p.s i did this one quite some time ago but it may fit the situation ^^'

You got me there....correct, white and black are not colors in terms of art and designs, but it is easier to explain to someone by referring to the "colors" of the iPad. I do agree there are much more pertinent problems in the world and even made a joke about how silly a thread this was to post, but as a macrumors regular I see posts like this all the time and it doesn't bother me. That's what these forums are for.

Just have fun and enjoy, thanks for your input though.

I actually pulled the trigger and returned the black for the gold and I couldn't be happier.

Thanks again

Well I have to give it to you that there are a lot of threads that are just brainless around here hehe, I by no means wanted to be rude, I hope you don't feel that I was, enjoy your new iPad, have a good day!

I don't mind, I am finally at peace with my decision thanks to everyone for their input!
 
Not to me. The Black would be better and offer the best perceived contrast.

But all of this is perceived and as you can read in this thread, everyone has their own opinion.

The OP needs to get what they want and make up their own mind!

I did, got the gold and couldn't be happier!
 
Do you notice a difference between colors or contrast on the white?

Contrast no, but I feel colors look more saturated and bright. Because my iPad will be my go too art/design tablet I am glad I choose white to frame the designs, it just seems right and looks great too!
