Hey guys im in the middle of choosing colour for the X1 any suggestions to which colour i should use??
btw how do u create a vote? THX!!
Also One of my friends have the black version, however he really wants the silver one(so do i) lol, any suggestions to what he should do ?? THX!!!
its really all about preference. Before the x1 came out, I had my mind set on getting it in black because I thought it was way better looking than the silver. Then I finally saw the silver in the store and didnt know what I was thinking when I wanted a black one. So i ended up getting silver
You mean like this one?

Black black black. Sexier than the silver.
I have to say the black one looks better although I have the sliver one... again, due to my network O2 only does Silver, no point of switching networks over colours, The keyboard is silver on both colours, so it does make more sense on the silver handset. I dunno, it;s a hard choice, mayeb I am lucky in a way that I didn't have a choice!!
I much prefer the silver version, the metal look is more visible with the silver colour and it blends in nicely with the keyboard bit

A seemingly trivial question I know, but which is best the black or the white - in regards to fingerprints, showing the dirt, general wear and tear etc.? - your opinions please
Thanks.
white all the life!
In my case the sensation is like an APPLE device!
by the way the black one has some problem about the paint of the case. it seems that in a few weeks it goes away!
...that's what i'e heard on some forums!
bye
Thanks gerazzo, I've heard that too about the black ones - but I've got the dilemma that I prefer the black ones to the white ones, but the white ones do seem to be a bit more practical!

I had the black one first and after 12 hours of use it started to peel. So, now i have the white one which doesnt show any sign of peeling - BUT it is white, which i dont really like.
If you can live with the white color then go with the white one and you wont (probably) have the headache of paint problems.
Either way, most importantly the P3600 is a great device and you will enjoy the functionality regardless of the color of the casing.
Had three (3) Trinities now: Go for white. There is no peeling at all and fingerprints are nearly invisible. Only drawback: Others might think you have an Apple device
White! Just design a cool home screen.
I handled both for 5 minutes. A Black Trinity is like a black car, it looks great IF its clean but looks terrible when its dirty. After 5 minutes the finger prints bugged me.
Could just be my OCD self!
Well thanks guys, it sounds like I should go for the white one then - although I can't stand them in white! Why is nothing straight forward? Ho Hum.
Hey Guys,
the white is better, but where do you get your white one. In Germany you get only black ones. Do you have tips???
Thanks!
Oliver
Hi Oliver, well most of our white ones come with our operator Orange over here - but here are a few links to the white ones:

Thanks TJW.
Great Adresses with white Trinitys. You can be happy in UK, you get the whites.
You get the white in UK, FR, Switzerland and so on. Only Germany, only black. Thats funny
No I think to buy one in UK, better pay more and have more risk instead get a black one with peeling.....
Oh a funny story beside: I ask an shop in Switzerland about the white one. The have but they said "No delivery to germany, come to Zurich and take one there" What????
With best white greetings
The black and white guy Oliver
PS: HTC, If you read my message please say me the price for a white one and I will sent you the money....
Hey guys...this is the cheapest place I've found for the white one in the UK:

Seems that where I am getting my phone from is getting them in both silver or black .. wondering which would be better .. any comments ?
black and only black
black yeah otherwise you will get bored with it fast trust me looks at p1 ;D
Black otherwise you will be singing "Back to Black"...
I have seen a lot of videos and photos of X1, Black seems the only option for me.
Silver for me.
Black
I looked at them both in the store and chose silver. Black is so boring
Looks like o2 UK will be silver and Vodafone black..
I like the look of the silver, yet wish my athena was black??
The black one looks better when closed but when you open up the keyboard it just looks awful. Looks like two different phones (silver and black) stuck together. So silver for me!
Hehe, here in a international forum people say black and in Swedish forums everyone says silver...
I want the black, my mate wants the silver. I'm guessing were gonna end up with whatever Vodafone offer on day one.
black for me, though. My notebook is black, and I want the whole set to be the same color

anyone know of a side by side comparisson ? I thought I saw once a picture of the black one with the keys looking like the UX390N with the black keys and blue lights .. Haven't been able to find that picture again. Maybe it was a dream.
Has anyone actually SEEN the elusive Black DHD?
I have my DHD on order, just got at notice that it is in the mail tomorrow and that it is the BLACK DHD. I am curious to see it.
If anyone is interested, I will of course post pics when it arrives, hopefully tomorrow evening.
I do not get your question. The only color I can order is black.
It only comes in the one colour which is a very dark brown which in some images appears as black depending on the lighting.
I hear that there is a 'dark brown' version AND a solid black version - as there is of the Desire itself I believe
So I got my DHD, and I am honestly not sure what color to call it.
To me, it looks more charcoal than either black or brown.
Call it gunmetal
Btw, forget all ideas about one black phone and that other one, there is ONLY ONE and it's dark brow/greynish color and black, looks very nice. Many people think there is a total black version but there isnt, its just different mixes when taking photos of ot, lot of it photoshop fixed i guess, so just forget about a total black version in the near future. I think this is pretty black.. gunmetal kinda look, it looks much better then it would in black only.
I'm not sure HTC know their colours very well. My desire was "dark brown" but was actually a shade of purpley gunmetal and my Desire HD was also advertised as "dark brown" but has the same purpley gunmetal at the back.
If there's one thing HTC does well, it's confuse forums all over the internet as to what colours their phones come in.
I've only seen it marketed as "Mocha" or "Black"
I've got the black one.
It's about the same black as the back cover of the HD2.

Could you take a photo of it next to a brown one for comparison please? Go into any shop selling the Desire HD - all the ones in the shops are the same colour as mine, which is a brown/charcoal/black.
And no photo editing please
Edit, rezize and crop is accepted

You'll get people stretching pairs of tights over their camera lens or similar things instead!
I think everyone has now come to accept there is only one colour, whether it's advertised as black, mocha, graphite or brown.

This have been talked about in so many threads that it should be banned by now
Printed Label On Box
Guys
Does it tell you the colour on the printed label stuck to the box?
I pre-ordered mine from Play.com and when it came it honestly had no hint of brown whatsoever. If not black, it was a charcoal colour. Anyway, I had to send it back because it was faulty (kept rebooting when in standby for only a few secs) and I'm now seeing a lot of stores advertising it as brown/mocha. Unfortunately I no longer have the box so I can't check this, but with my HTC Hero the sticker on the box which has the barcodes printed on it states "HTC Hero White" so I'm wondering if any of your boxes have the colour printed on the label, something like "HTC Desire HD Mocha" etc.
If your box does have the colour printed on the label, please state it here and say what colour you would call the phone. Should help clear up whether there is only the one colour.
Cheers.
P.S. GSM Arena also state that the phone is available in two colours, black and brown.

im pretty sure its still 1 colour, i think it depends on the lighting more than anything however the one i used in vodafone looked black to me but it was a very dark show room so could just be lighting meh, brown or black the colour is close and the device inside it is still the same so does it matter ?
its not like the hero that came in black, white, pink ect.... black and brown are so close it barely matters in this case imo
I was wondering anyone here from UK has the Black edition of the DHD from Orange.
I was trying to search for some real life photographs of it without result.
From stocks image, it looks pretty awesome, and I was thinking of getting it, but it would suck if there is a big orange logo stamped on it. Anyone can confirm?
Thanks

the only orange branding on it, is on the battery cover (easly replaceable)
Thanks. I just looked up the bottom cover on ebay. £14 a cover still a rip off !
I had it in my presence for a day or so...
Unfortunately when I compared it to my brown DHD, I must say I much preferred the brown look. The orange logo in my opinion is a bit of an eyesore but its not that big.

May I ask why in particular? Or it is just a preference of colour personally?
i have one and it much nicer than the brown (i have both)
Hi
i own the black edition, and yes the orange logo is not very nice, but i plan to get another cover for it...
Anyway, the phone is quite nice, i must admit i've not seen (live) the brown one, but this is quite nice in black...
since the logo is printed on the bottom cover, we can replace luckily. But the thing is I only found the coffee colour version of it. and its not cheap, 15-20quid for that tiny cover.

Honestly its my colour preference.
To me the brown just looks more full. It looks weighty and expensive.

Can you post some pix of your Black DHD mate?
My mates got a black one sim free no logos. Looks good but seems plain to me.
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
Most phones are black, this kind of brown colour gives you a sense of independence, it'll be very hard to come across something cheap that's brown not black.
I think the brown sort of shows different colour under different lighting, sometimes you even see it in silver. The black edition is totally matte black I think.
Where did you friend get the black version btw?
I got the brown version, and while I wanted the black version at first, the brown one looks sexier than I imagined. Too bad I use an otter box, so its black afterall^^

Can anybody with, if it's really true, a BLACK DHD be kind enough to post some pix please!!
yea, if anyone out here have access to the black and brown version and take a photo with them side by side, will be a very good comparision.
Just got a black DHD from Orange, compared to previous phones from them the branding is relatively unobtrusive. I've attatched a pic of the back panel that should give you some idea. Sorry about the quality but this was taken with a rubbish camera in poor lighting.

well, the truth is, the "brown" one would cost me £199 plus the renewal of my contract, the black came freebie....:
But, i need to cofess, i like black phones...
Hey,
I am going to pre-order the HTC One soon. I really want to pre-order it as fast as possible but I'm still not sure which color to get.
Which color would you guys get? I think the black one is pretty cool but silver makes it look more special and sets it apart from other phones.
I also heard that the black one shows fingerprints more easy, but the on the silver one you'll notice the edge to edge black zone is much more apparent on the silver version.
What do you guys think?
