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,
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?

Hello all. I know we have the "Show us your custom MotoMaker Moto X's" thread, but I'm hoping to start one for specific configurations. I picked up the $100 coupon on 1/27 and have been hemming and hawing about what configuration I want. The major drawback to the MotoMaker site is that it doesn't render the hues realistically (search for pictures of a Moto X with blue accents and compare it to MotoMaker to see what I mean). I wanted to get one of the new wooden backs, but after searching for a couple of days, I've found that not many people have gotten the new wooden back and/or haven't taken pictures of it.
Specifically, I'm hoping someone out there chose a white front with one of the "darker" wooden backs (ebony or walnut), because I'd like to see how the white front looks with that black plastic strip that goes around the back edge. Also, black, silver, or orange accents seem to be the only pictures on the web with wooden backs. I was hoping someone has a picture of their wooden-backed Moto X with something like blue or red accents.
Appreciate anyone that would like to help. Thanks.

Thanks. I'm hoping to come across an ebony/walnut with a white front. It seems like the black plastic strip would ruin the whole look, though. Anyone have any feedback on how the white front holds up to daily usage (how dirty does it get, and how quickly)?

Btw, just wanted to say thanks again. If it wasn't for that video I wouldn't have even considered trying blue accents on an ebony Moto X. The way MotoMaker renders the blue on the site makes it seem like it would clash with the ebony back, but it looked really good in that video. I ended up ordering one with the exact same customization :victory: Unfortunately, they are backordered, and won't be here until at least 2/11
Hi everyone, I'm just wondering what colour M9 everyone will be buying - Adam
I wish they had a "Silver/Silver" model.
I'll probably go for a silver/gold M9.
Just so it's different from my Grey M8. ?
I would go for the black/grey model if similar to previous m7/m8. I haven't stumbled on any pictures of it yet. I'm a bit bored of the silver version.

The silver/gold one because by the time I put it in a cover it will look a lot like my beloved M7.
Thanks for the votes so far everyone, Gunmetal is looking popular. I can't decide between either that or gold/silver, i really want to pre order but might wait it out to view one instore first - Adam
Will be going for the Gunmetal (grey) myself
Silver and gold trim will be the best for sure
Gunmetal for sure the best One.
Silver gold

Wish the accents on the gold edition was black.

Does the gun metal fade/ chip if used without cover? The black M7 has this problem. So I have to use it with a cover.
I like Black, (I have black M7), but it's doesn't present this time, I'll go for Silver/gold is something new. Gun metal is too mach identical to the M8
Samething for me ...
I can't decide between gold/silver or gunmetal, i might wait it out to view one in store.
Thanks again for all the votes so far guys!, i just ordered the Silver/Gold even though i think i prefer the Gunmetal.
This is because my M8 is Gunmetal and i want something fresh - Adam
I really like the glacial silver we had in M8 over the other options in terms of color, finish and feel (prefer it over the hairline finish). I wonder if HTC will have that for the M9 at some point of time.
That depends if the Gunmetal black scratches like the Black HTC One M7. 2 years ago when I had the silver one, I got into a conversation with someone and they mentioned that when the black variant got scratched, you could see silver streaks all over it. So since then I've defaulted to silver being a safe choice.
If someone could tell me that the color of gunmetal is the color of the metal, and not just a paint cover, that may influence my choice to pick the darker one.
I'm getting gunmetal look like my m8, was going for the gold, but I didn't wanna wait till week 21,
So changed my order to gunmetal look.
If it only was 31th already,

Would like to know this too!
As far as I can tell its very similar to the gunmetal of the M8 and not actually as dark as the promotional images suggest, its definitely not the black of the M7.
I would be very very surprised if the colour of the M9 is actually the colour of the metal and not just some kind of anodization process. I know that where I've dropped my M8 all the dings show up silver underneath but not to the extent of how some peoples black M7 ended up looking - Adam
Black, Chrome or gold?
Which color did you get?
I got the chrome because of the mirror on the back, thinking maybe I should have got the gold one?
What do you think?
Chrome... Got it today....
I opted to ditch the priv for this...
I bought the black variant (it just looked more professional/sleek to me). I didn't need a phone that shined brighter than the sun. I do think that the chrome variant is more premium looking than the gold one though. Gold is just more gaudy and tacky looking than it is "premium." Chrome reminds me of the reflective back on the old iPods.
I love the way black version looks, however we in India, dont have the option to buy a Black Z5P. I had to get Crome. Its not a bad choice, but black would have been better.
Black for me too, looks very very nice and the fingerprints in the back are harder to see

I went for the chrome version. It just looks very premium over the other two colors. The gold just looks hideous. But that's just my opinion.
Lol, the gold looks spectacular, but that's just my opinion.

Went with chrome, but I think all 3 colors were really well done and looks great.
Chrome, literally looks like jewelry. I normally prefer white electronics this is the first time I prefer something else over white.
Is there one particular shop that has stock of all colours to look at, or is it a case of going into multiple shops to see all three?
I can't decide by looking at pictures, I am leaning towards black but would like an actual physical comparison...
Is it just the chrome version that has the reflective / mirror back?
What does the back of the black version look and feel like?

The chrome is really a mirror. I did not see the black only the gold one. The gold one is not mirror. It is reflecting a little bit. I got the chrome, amaizing
I prefer Black. If not, Black works as well. Or Black.
i went for chrome! the mirror looks really nice!
but hey! at the end of the day! its XPERIA
Chrome here.
