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:

We see a couple threads on who has which colors, but see none about the Black one. Not a bashing thread to say black is better than the other colors (we're a big MT4G family). Just who has black and why picked over the other colors? In my own opinion black just looks sleek and official. I love the other colors they look nice but I just look at them as playful/kid colors (agian.. my opinion only). MT4G isn't really concidered as a business phone as much as a Blackberry would be, but it gives it that business type feel and look... Your turn...
I have the black one, im constantly in meetings with new clients so dont like have bright phones :/
lol i wrote that before i read the last part of your post... looks like we agree on the business look of it ..
I have a black one. The red one looked nice too but I like more understatements.... Plum and White looked too tacky for me
I picked the black. When I checked out the other color demo phones I noticed that the hard rubber is painted, not fully stained and black underneath the color layer. Some of the red and plum models had scratches that showed the black coming through. I figured with a black to start with scratches won't show as much.
I guess I could have bought a case to make sure I never get any scratches but what would have been the point of getting a colored one if it's covered by a case anyway, right?
Great. Now I'm re-thinking my decision to go with white again. Curse you. Curse you all!

Have you ever thought that clients might look favorably on a white/metal/black one? Perhaps they may even be more apt to *remember* you. They may even consider you an out-of-the-box kind of guy, perhaps even ever so slightly fashion forward *shudder*.
Is it really the case that everyone in the business community carry around black phones (even in LA)? I see this raised now and then and I just kind of cringe.

Isn't that what ties are for??
I think that the Black on Black color was the best because it looked the most uniform.
I picked the black because I think it looks a bit sleeker. Would have loved to seen a silver/yellow color combo. Not to change the subject but what class sdcard did your blacks come with. Mine is class 2.
Hate white, plus hated the tri-color scheme on the white. Loved the red and the plum equally. Was going to go for the plum, but hubby surprised me and ordered the black.
Now that I look at it and played with it for 2 days, I really like the black. I think it looks classier.

I don't know. The first thing what I did when getting the phone was switching the SD card from 8 to 16 GB class 6.
Black phone to go with the black battery cover. Makes no sense that they wouldn't color match with the others, you get the black back no matter what. Still, aside from the Nexus, every phone I've had in the past 5 years have been black.
And mine came with a class 4 card.
I got the black one cause that's all the store I went to had lol. Seriously though I thought about the red one but I some times put a case on it so what would be the point of a colored phone plus the whole scratches thing that someone mentioned earlier. And the white looked kinda cheap and plasticy just my opinion though.

Yup, i wanted white cause i thought it would be pimp like the white EVO but when i noticed it was half white, half black, and the battery cover was silver, i couldnt stand the thought of owning it.
I just ordered my black one because it was 50/50 white/black for me.
Black on black was the most classiest one. If they had an all white MT4G...
I wanted black/red. But went with white because of the case they ad available for it. The Flex Protect one, with the grey gel insert, and the white protective hard case. I thought the piano finish on the white was nice. And, after going back and looking at them again, only the black woul dmake me change my mind now.
If only they had a flex case in black...
I got the black one because it was the only one that was available at Costco. It's cool though, the Black MT4G looks pretty classy.
I bought the black one because I purchased the white mytouch3g because it was the only color at the time and always wanted the black one.
Very happy! It looks professional and I wouldn't go with any other color.
I got the black because it matches the theme of my truck lol

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.

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 guys, I am struggling to decide on which color to import. I have traditionally always had black phones, but the white body in screenshots at least looks really good.
Are there any advantages/disadvantages to going white vs. black with the Z3c?
I've always had black phones too. I bought a used white moto x a couple months back. I love it more and more every day. I definitely getting the white z3c. The black one just looks boring.
I went for the white one. Have had several black phones and wanted a change. Would have done the red / orange model but the black bezel looks tacky to me.
I did white too. Should shoe fewer fingerprints than black.

I went for Black - looks more professional. I like keeping my phones in cases anyway though
I went for black, never had a white phone, although I do have a niggling feeling perhaps I should have tried white, it does look good.
I ordered the white one. I changed it to the red one awhile later. I saw a video of the black one and it looks really classy to me so I changed my order to black :laugh:
I originally wanted the mandarin red, then saw some videos of the mint green and thought that would be really cool, but unfortunately, the green won't be available unlocked for some time yet. After hearing more testimonials about the red and how brilliant it was, I'm convinced it's the right choice. Basically, I wanted anything other than black and white because as safe, classy, and sleek as those choices are, I find them to be rather bland. If I had to choose though, I'd go with white, only because most of my devices have always been black and I wanted something different.
I had a Z1c in black for quite sometimes and bought my brother the Z1c in white and gotta say the white does looks really good. But currently can not really say much about the z3c as it is not available yet in Australia. The best way would have to go and look for yourself which one would suit your taste better. But i would say the white looks good on picture. The only that might be a concern that is the seal around the screen is white as well, just do not know would it be stain over time

TBH I don't get your question at all, since it's purely opinion based.
If there would be a technical difference based on the color, most people would get the color that had the technical upper hand.
You don't ask your friends either if you should have a blonde/brunette girlfriend/boyfriend, since it's all just based on taste.:angel:
You are absolutely right but you have to understand that we are all really excited about this phone and we just discuss all kinds of bul**** about it until the delivery agent rings the doorbell and leaves the white box in our hands...

confused i am using the hox white, and looks really cool. Perhaps i might try the black this time, It will also match with my sony xb90ex earphones
I prefer black because I don't like how the sensor cutout, speaker, and camera lens standout on white.
If I could get black front and white back like my Dev moto x, that would be awesome. I guess I can still do that with a white skin for the back.

Not necessarily. White will show less fingerprints, but might discolor over time. There are a few objective traits each color exhibit, and since I feel torn between the two aesthetically, I wanted to discuss some objective reasons one color might benefit over the other.

The white is covered in glass on both sides so why would it discolor?

it won`t.
At least it didn`t on my white Z.
I think another disadvantage of a white one would be the white front panel making the display appear darker, I think in sunny weather the white could actually "blind" you a little, making the screen a tad more difficult to read.
I've occasionally had overheating problems with sunlight coming in through a car window. White might be helpful.

My S4 was white. Definitely going for the black one this time. What color are you planning to get?
BLACK definitely, the white fake leather not sweet
Definitely went for the black.
I like the white face. I can always change the back or put on a case.
Just saw the white in person and its gorgeous

when is the gold color coming out? any idea guys?
All my electronics are black. So black it is. Well the Note 2 was silver but you get the point.
Even though the white looks very nice (just got a hands on @ the Best Buy across the street), I like the black look of my Note 3, which is why I opted for the black one
Black one here. The White looks really good, but will only last a few months at the most before it starts to look dirty even after cleaning it.

$900 for a phone without LTE? Wow that's insane.
Preordered the black. I'm not a fan of white faced phones, the bezels stand out way too much. Look at the iPhone 6 plus, it's the most god awful gaudy looking phone with the white front/bezels. On the other hand I'm impressed with the white Note 4 and would consider the white, it's very well done and the bezels don't stand out too badly.
