Lg g2 white or black? - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

ordered the white version but still debating which one looks best.

I'm gonna get black because verizon tells me which color to like.

Black is best IMO, so sleek

If you hate fingerprints on your phone, then the white one is best. But I think the white ones look cheaper and more "plastic" in appearance. The black ones look better to me.

Verizon says I can have any color I want as long as it happens to be black....

I'm getting a black phone, of course. I'm a man after all.

I like white phones but I rely on the LED notification a lot!
I notice that on black phones the notification led seems more pronounced with the darker surrounding background, on my white S4 I sometimes miss it when I glance at the phone from a distance.
Stupid reason from some but it's a real good reason to choose black for me.

I'm thinking white, my Iphone 5 is white and has the same black bezel around the screen, making it look smaller, but I don't really mind.
White looks a bit more trendy and different. I've only had grey/black phones so up until now and I'm in love with the iphone's white looks. The G2 looks really nice in white too - grabs more attention.
Only one thing - do you think the silver paint on the back buttons might wear out faster?

I own a white G2, I have bought this case for it.
The white looks great, but beware! If you plan to get the same case (which is awesome btw) or any other white rubber case, it will slowly turn into any color it touches the most. Eg. mine is slowly turning into blue, because of my blue jeans! I keep it in my pocket.
Doesn't look that bad, but maybe some will hate it!

I have a white G2 with a black Diztronic tpu case and I love it. The white looks really nice and doesn't show fingerprints without the case.

I also have this case, but in black with my white G2. IMO the white looks more premium and different, but it doesn't really matter once you throw a case on it lol

Coming from a white galaxy s2 I wished to get the white g2 also but it wasnt available at the moment so I went for the black one. Don't regred it tho. Wouldn't change it for the white one now.

I have white in all honestly I love the phone in white it makes the screen and everything pop out more for me. Granted notification led doesn't look the best compared to the black model but I would definitely go for the white. Most people have black anyways and with most cases being black now it just doesn't look good with the phone being black. I have the otter box case and black on white looks amazing with this phone.

I was gonna buy the white one because the black version didn't look good in videos and photos, but when i saw it close up i was convinced to get the black one.

I went with black.
Black and red tech devices makes my heart glow.
Thus, black G2 with a dark red matte case makes me happy.

White with a white case works for me

Black for me. Boring maybe but I'm not really a fan of white phones. And I really don't like how the camera and sensor holes look on the white face- they look out of place. I wish Samsung would extend the ear speaker to be longer across the top and put the sensors in the same slot. It seems it would look better, at least IMHO.
What I really want to see are the different cases in person; I'd love a nice real leather back and cover that isn't too bulky but think the flap may be annoying in every day use.
Nice to know that the note 3 will be used by a bunch of hippies.

Black for me but will depend on the spur of the moment at the store.

Want color Note looks better, white or black?

And is there any difference when reading ebooks? Does the white match better with the white paper? And would the black version work better with games and movies?

White is nicer looking imo, also better for browsing, drawing, note taking. Some prefer to watch movies on a black model, but not seen much use there myself really. Also the fake leather looks better in white. Several reviewers mentioned the white one looking better, none so far preferred the black one. White backgrounds on the screen of the Note 10.1 costs no more energy to produce than a black one.
With amoled on a phone I prefer a black device, seeing a black themed screen saves energy and phones are somewhat low on battery power.
I picked up the previous 10.1 in white and did not like it so when I purchased my 2014 10.1 I made sure it was the black one.
White looks better and goes well with any color cases

With the textured back, would the white collect dirt from handling over time?

I am considering the white model because it looks better than the black one, and I had the same initial concerns about the back getting dirty... However, after seeing them both in person, I'm pretty sure either version will be very easy to clean if it does get dirty. After all, it's only plastic and the texture is not very deep.
Am I the only person who finds the white border with chrome being distracting?

I prefer black for my gadgets. White just reminds me of outdated kitchen appliances. Never understood the fascination people have with white electronics. Also, I've seen too many white colored devices get discolored over time... not sure this textured back is going to hold up to grime over time very well.

I like white, and got a white note I've never had my white smartphones or tablets get discolored, maybe those people just didn't take good care of their devices, like leaving them in the sun in a hot car. It's personal preference though, go with what you like.

LG G Pad 8.3 Black or White Poll

Alright, I delete that other post, make this one into POLL.
So, do you prefer black or white device?
I heard the Black one has one advantage, the black border around the screen, which can totally ignore, but the one white, you still can see black border.
You honestly won't notice the black border unless you're trying to find it, lol. I never noticed it until you guys pointed it out. White looks great. I have a white Note 3, which is why I decided to get the white version. Another reason is due to fingerprints I read about. The black apparently is known to be a fingerprint magnet.
Agree the border is no issue at all did either noticed it before someone here mentioned it and I really looked for it. I picked the white because it released first, but think I would have picked either way, I like the color.

I brought a black one. Can't stand the black boarder between edge of the screen and the bezel on the white version.
White, I'm hoping to reach my country (Chile)
i got my White Modell, but not fully aware.
On Full Screen Videos, example in Youtube remain black borders at the top and bottom of the screen.
That does not fit in contrast to the white model (black bars).
It would be nice if you could hide the edges of the frame, but that will probably not go, because of the resolution (16:10) of the display?!

I had a white HTC one x and couldn't keep the dirt off for the life of me. I must stick to black lol
I have the black one, it was the one Asda had on offer BUT I prefer it to the white one
I have a white S3, next phone will be black
This is the first device that I actually prefer in white. Although honestly, they both look great.
I have a black G2 though, I need my phone to match my car's interior.

Black model
I had the white model but then exchanged it for the black model. The features of the OS go much better with the black. Once there is a ROM for pure Android I think it will go much better with black than white.
White no doubt like the LG G2 its shorter brother it looks better in this colour'
I prefer Black, but you can only get the White model here in Australia so that's what I have!

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

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.

[Q] Black or White for a dude?

I've never had a white phone. Should I stick with a black phone or get the white? Is a white phone girly?

No, a white phone is not girly. I had a white Note 2 and it was awesome except when it was getting dirty. I still don't know too which color to get, but I'm leaning towards black. They both look awesome IMHO.
White is right

For me it comes down to fingerprints. My last couple of phone have been white and white is what I've pre-ordered.
Last year I bought two Galaxy S4's. The white for my wife and the dark blue to me. I had both near me most of the time and was able to compare anytime... It happened that I liked the white so much more than the "black" and now everytime I have the chance I'll get the white one. ?
But.. Obviously it's a personal taste. There's no better or worse. And I agree with the above post, there's nothing of "girly" on a white phone.
Edit: it's stupid I know but two or three times I dropped my s4 on the floor because it was over my laptop keyboard or over the closed lid and when reaching out my laptop on a dark room I didn't saw/remember it was there. That's another really really personal reason I'd go with the white. ?
I have a white s3 and like it but went with black this time around because I like how the screen looks like it's edge to edge when it's off

For some reason I think the gold is girly. My last two phones were white. Going back to black to make a change.

I only had white phones and they look great but when you buy a white cover it'll will always goes dirty right know i use lg g3 white but my circle cover got from white is more red now couse of my pants
Every time I buy a new phone or tablet the colour is probably the hardest decision to make!
I had a white Galaxy S3, Note 2 and Galaxy Camera and I liked them a lot, but decided on a change to black for the Note 3. It was then I realised that black is better for screen contrast especially when watching videos. I've never had a fingerprint issue and I feel it just looks more premium.
So my answer is: White is not a girly colour, the pink obviously feminine and possibly even the gold in my opinion. The black Note 4 looks more premium and that's the colour I have ordered!

This! It goes so well with the Samsung TW this time and in general i really like Note 4 much more in the white color.
I got black Note 3 when it was released and i wasn't crazy about it, but imo Note 4 looks so much better in white.
I also have white Tab S 8.4 so they will go great together. And no i don't think that white is girly. Pink is for the girls.
I have a white note 2. I am glad I chose white and did again on the note 4. My wife has a black note 2 and the black just seems to show any scratch or dirt more prominently. It's kind of like a car. A white actually shows less dirt than a black. They are both nice colors though so it is just personal preference.

You have a point. Makes me think twice in getting the white one. Currently have the grey note 2
I ordered white, usually have mostly black phones as well. But my note 2 was white, note 3 was black so now going back to white. I feel like the phone pops out more which is great for such a powerful little beast.
White. It was on my 2 and 3 so will be on my 4.
