Why did you choose the iPhone 5 color you chose?

I chose black. Less likely for someone to steal as white sticks out. If it's white, everyone knows it's an iphone. :D
 
Black, but a little mad about it :mad: .. loved my white 3G and when I got the iPhone 4 at launch there were no white even though I wanted it... skipped the 4S and wanted the white iPhone 5.... but after looking at how great the black/slate is I just couldn't say no, no matter how bad I wanted a white iphone again
 
Was dead set on getting the white iphone 5. I literally changed my mind at the last minute after reading some of the threads and watching hands on videos. The black just looked sleek to me.

Because in my opinion, the white version looks much better than the black. Plus, if scratched, the anodized black aluminum on the black version will show silver.

Exactly why I chose white even though I initially wanted black. Anodized or coated metals never look all that great after consistent use and I plan on going ceaseless.
 
I chose black cause I did not want white.

A friend chose white cause she thought it was cool.

What does this mean? And does it help me understand the meaning of life?
 
Because.


Do we really need countless hyper specific specific threads?

Here's some more thread topics, for those of you desperate to post something, but can't come up with anything...

-Which hand will you pick up the iPhone 5 with when you first open the box?

-Where's the best place to sell the plastic sleeve the iPhone comes wrapped in?

-The official transgender quadriplegic zombie iPhone 5 wallpaper thread.

-Post here if your Apple order number contains a 6.

-Will the iPhone 60 come out in 60 years or 120 years?! Preorder now?

-Post here if your IMEI number matches the number of seconds you have lived.
 
White because,

1) Classic Apple.
2) Hipster.
3) No one is choosing white.
4) Silver will look better if it gets scratched (as opposed to the anodized black).
 
im a girl and i got the white... BF is getting black. i feel like i should copy and paste this reply for all the color polls :)
 
White, because it is easier to find in the dark, the aluminum is glimmery, I love the way the light refracts at the edges, it doesn't show scratches and fingerprints as much, the aluminum won't show scratches as a glaringly different color, it doesn't get as hot in the sun, and it will be different from my last phone which was black, plus that way my partner and I have different-color phones.

And because all of these threads taught me that the best people get white iPhones. ;)
 
If I would have gotten the 4s, I would have gotten white. With the 5 however it better with the black. My wife got white so we'll see
 
white because its the perfect color for girls..no..because the last 3 versions were all black. i need a change asap.
