So, of course we are all delighted there's the beautiful black version of the i3, but what about the soft gold and metallic silver versions? So far there isn't much known about them, no release dates whatsoever. I am definitely eager to snatch up the gold version when it arrives.

That white one looks awesome. Not a fan of white phones but that looks gorgeous. I'm good with the black version since it's in a case so I probably won't see me upgrading to the white version if released.

Yes sorry, meant the silver. It looks like a whiter shade in the image in the first post. Though if they did release a white version, I'm sure it'd be just as smexy.

Since today the metallic 4.7" is on FNAC, interesting!
http://www.fnac.com/Smartphone-Alcatel-Idol-3-8-Go-Metallic-Silver/a8892693/w-4
I've had my silver 6045Y for close to a month now, so at least in Europe they should be in stock. I would have liked the gold one, but the Finnish distributor had only the black and silver ones in stock (and had received those only a few hours before). Since my Note II had taken its last leap off a chair the night before, I was happy to settle with the silver phone.
And yes, it is purrty. No links by lurkers though, sorry.

Interesting. Do you have a link? I don't understand why Alcatel seems to be rather slow with releasing the new colors. I mean, why only make the 4.7 version available in silver?

No links allowed before 10 posts (again, lurker here), but I bought mine from the Finnish operator Elisa. Maybe the Y model has better availibility in different colours, dunno.
These are still almost impossible to find, as they are quite impossible to find here in Europe. So a store in Finland has them and one in France. I tried calling and mailing them but they seem to know less than us... Real professional.
Why don't you just but a skin lol

Unfortunately I would totally agree on that. Was thinking that it could be a potential replacement of my Fuze, not so much now... How did they manage to make a pretty decent looking phone ugly how...
i suppose i won't pass judgement until i see it in person...but eh i can't get a new phone yet anways so ....moot point
we just added a few new photos and more details...like no 3.5 jack, talk time worse than the Fuze and a possible launch date before super Tuesday

Isn't the next "super Tuesday" in something like February 2012? When exactly are you referring to?

The super Tuesday being refered to is next Tuesday because that is the day Microsoft said it was releasing Windows Mobile 6.5 along with several carriers announcing availability of WM 6.5 phones. It is the official launch date for WM 6.5 basically.
if you walk into a store today you can buy one - 100%. Just ask nice and act innocent.
you should be able to get it today in NY at least. I played with the floor model for a bit. its not as ugly in person. its not ugly at all in person. it does look horrible on the box art though.
Apart from the AT&T branding, this is identical to the t-mobile Compact V..... the case, the silver inlay on the back, earpiece, ..... all the same.
Only thing I can't see is if it has the mini-usb cover on the bottom but I guess it has.
John
Yes, it's the same as T-Mobile MDA Compact V except logos on front cover.
Ok I have to ask, why do these carriers change the phones? I'm not just talking about the TD2. I prefer the original versions, not to mention the carrier branding, ugh.
Maybe
Perhaps its ugly, perhaps its got no headphone jack... Regardless, I'm probably buying one of these later today or sometime this week for analysis/experimentation It will be nice to have a phone smaller than my fuze tho... it is kind of thick (And yes, I'm aware its thinner because of the lack of keyboard). Ill post back here when i get it, and post whether or not its as bad as everyone thinks.

All of those of you that wanted an upgraded Google Nexus S - your wish has been granted, if you consider a new colour an upgrade.
TechRadar got a little look at the new handset on test, and if you're in the market for something different when it comes to a new mobile, then the White Nexus S will at least set you apart.
First impressions make it feel like all Google and Samsung have done is chuck a while plastic cover on the back of the phone, but thankfully it's a little more than that.
Firstly, the whole inside of the phone is now white when you pop the cover off, as well as the extraneous buttons - and these are the things that are actually different on view when you consider the differences between the white and black version.
Sat side by side, you probably wouldn't notice the difference between the two phones from the front, with the same 4-inch Super AMOLED screen on offer. We have no idea why the front isn't also white - we can only assume this messes with the colour perception in some way, as the dual tone looks odd.
We put the black plastic cover on the back of the white Nexus S (there's not a lot else you can do when taking pictures of a new cover) so you can see the difference.
Another key difference, and in our eyes an upgrade, is the back is no longer glossy plastic but a slightly mottled exterior making it easier to hold.
Other than that, the two phones are identical. there's no official White Google Nexus S UK release date, but expect to see the phone sometime in April.
It should be landing on the same £30 a month (ish) tariff as its black brethren on Vodafone - at least now you can decide which version suits you better.

Ok samsung needs to make a non glossy black battery cover ASAP!!!
+1 to SupaDupaFly24!!!
I think the phone looks a bit odd because the front is still just black.
The black cover on the white phone looks cool though.
All they did was change the back? not the front or the bezel?
The non glossy back is a great idea though.
When will they make black battery covers like that?

Comparison for HTC One Silver and iPhone 5 White (Thanks to hamdir):

Red is here: http://pdadb.net/index.php?m=specs&id=4209&view=1&c=htc_one_801e_32gb_htc_m7

I think both black and silver are very cool. If I had to choose, I would pick Silver.
There are several interviews that say no red version will be available. The red was intended for Verizon and they are not going to carry the phone so red seems to be out.

Re: Black/silver/Red?

Silver
Not a fan of the design in general but I think the black looks way better. The bright white lines on the silver model really make it appear disjointed and makes it look like a Transformers logo. You can still notice the breaks in the black model but it blends in more.
I've had all black phones for the Galaxy line so now that I'm jumping to HTC I think I'll change it up even more! Silver for me!
Black for me, i like the understated looks of it, always had black phones (or "glamour grey" in the case of One X)
black
silver...every phone is black nowadays..
Black if it becomes clear that the coating is tough, otherwise silver as that's the colour any scratches will show up as.
The black looks better IMO.
Silver for me! but I think they both look pretty sexy!

what u mean you would , lol you haven't ordered yet? I ordered at f4u upgrade deal for £26 500 min and U txt and internet no upfront cost
i pick black!
The silver looks cool. I'm afraid of the black paint fading or chipping. So I'd rather get the silver.
I will have too see them in person first.

There's only one blue (on the right next to the white)
I picked Midnight Black during Boxing Week Newegg.ca sale.
The blue one did not come with any gift card or gifts. I was seriously thinking about getting the Pearl White, as it looks really classy, the chrome/silver accent around the phone looks really good. However, I decided to go with Midnight Black as you cannot go wrong with the available accessories with black....just like any shirts will go with a pair of black pants.
Gold

I deliberated between black and white but eventually went for the latter. Looks so clean and I love the way the light hits the back panel.

@DrGreenway
Do you mind fixing the poll? There is double sapphire blue instead of Sakura pink.
Wanted White but got Gold instead because they didnt have White
Pearl White
The only color options available when I bought mine with 64GB were white and black. Since I've never owned a white phone before I went with the Pearl white. Black has been the color of most of my phones since de mid 90's. Up to recently, family and friends thought that I didn't want myself to be mistaken with IPhone fan boys, and they were probably right!
I find this Honor 8 the most beautiful phone I've ever owned. Much more than my sister's Pixel. Not that I find the Pixel beautiful, on the contrary, to me it looks boring and bland. I was expecting better looks from a phone that expensive.
Just got my Honor 8 Pro delivered. Thought I'd share some close up images with you guys.
