Hi,
I have two HT Magics, white one (32B), branded by British Vodafone, and black one (32A), branded by Polish Orange. There is a huge difference between them in a matter of screen contrast. Black Magic has lower contrast, colors are more yellow than on the white Magic. It looks like a different white balance between them. I am not sure if it is possible to adjust contrast or white balance for such screens as it is possible for computer monitors? Of course adjusting brightness from the phone's menu does not let me to get what I want. Maybe loading a new software will change the contrast of the screen?
Do you have two Magics and notice the same?
On the black Magic, with poor contrast, I have Android 1.5, white one has Android 1.6 on board.
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
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?

Go for black, it's more professional

Definitely it is more professional and classy! And S4 with the silver metallic (looking plastic) lining all around the sides looks more beautiful in black and vice versa.
I went with Black Mist. I had the option for Blue or White. After looking at the Blue and seeing how ugly it was I decided to just keep going with my Black phones. My wife likes having white phones but I don't.
I was having problems with my HTC one silver device, and AT&T sent a black replacement, so I got the chance to compare this two devices before I send on e of them back.
The only difference I noticed beside the color, is that the black one's screen's color seemed to be more realistic and displays the color white much better. And the silver one's screen's color seemed kind of darker, and when displaying the color white, it appears to be shifting to yellow. And the differences are VERY big!
I am sure it is not a simple difference between a silver device and a black one, and It looks like HTC One's quality control and quality consistency are really in doubt...
The One might be coming with different screen manufactures.
Also having a silver bezel opposed to a black bezel, can change the way we see things, one of the reasons i bought a black version.
