Hi all,
I'm still trying to decide which colour to get. I have never had a White phone before, and think the white looks good. But I have heard that White can get dirty easier and screen would also look less vibrant.
So...what do you guys think? Which colour will you get if you can be bothered to wait for the white.
I had a white Blackberry for a bit, I liked it for a month then the colour start to bother me for some unknow reason, maybe because it doesn't match with my other gears.
Go for white if you want your Note to stand out and maybe have a slightly better resell value. But you can't go wrong with black, it's a classic colour.
I haven't seen either one in the flesh, but I quite fancy the look of the white one on the web. However, price and supply have dictated that I get the black one. No big deal either way for me.
If it helps, Apple seem to have plenty of white versions of their products - iPad, old Macbook, iPhone, iPod and lots of accessories and I've not seen anyone grumble that it started to look dirty.
If I could stand the wait I would probably get the white. It looks pretty amazing when I see it in a video online. I have seen a white S2 in person and they look beautiful.
My order is in for the black, can always order both and sell the black when the white comes in
Black looks better imho. Now where is my shipping notification...
let me vote for a white one ^_^
I bought a white iPad 2. I had to return it, it was honestly distracting doing anything but reading a bright white webpage. I don't think i'll get another white device again.
Ask any one involved in the clothing trade and they'll tell you white makes you look bigger. The Note already looks big enough.
The cover for a white Note would also need to be white in order to match and it would soon look dirty, especially if it was made of leather. So for that reason alone I would prefer black.
Black is better for images and movies, white would stand out too much, with everything black it will blend in.
It's like having a white tv, wtf who would want a white tv? My vote goes for black!
I'm aiming to get black
I got a white Ipad as a birthday prezzie
(still sulking over the colour)
on the ipad white any, dust/fluff seems to be very noticeable

I would sulk at the fact it's an ipad, not that it's white in colour!!
Their too big and overpriced for what they are, they're more suited for movies/gaming/entertainment than a phone or business use...
Are you a woman? If not, get a black. Like a real man.

Got my Note in white and I love the way it looks. It doesn't get dirty, no more so than my black Galaxy S2 did. Everyone that's seen it falls in love with the way it looks.
So, I see that the black xperia Z has highly visible fingerprints, I wonder if the white one will make them less noticeable? Can anyone with the white one confirm? Also, which colour are you going to buy ? :laugh:
I'm confused between black and white
Me too. But I've gone for Black as IMO it looks better and apparently the fingerprints are easy to remove

I've gone for white so I aint got to fully see those finger prints on the back.
I have the white Had Black phones for ages and fancied a change.
Finger prints are not to visible on the back.
But I still polish it every time I use it as you can still see them and it bugs the hell out of me!!
Tough choice for me. White looks great, black looks good too but has fingerprints problem. You aren't going to look at the back of your phone though.
Will probably get black because it's less visible during 'stealth' photo shoots.
There is already a thread for this. Please use search function.
Sv: Black | White | Purple choice and why thread
I would prefer the white one but as I can't wait to get the XZ, I'm getting the black one. The Black one releases 2 weeks before the white in Sweden.
black, cause I am not a child anymore.
White screams too loud young...
Black imo it looks better regardless of fingerprints.
I'm getting white as the full black face of the screen stands out more and that looks neat. Also, fingerprints will be less obvious as mentioned.
The fingerprints on the screen are likely to be "auto-wiped" each time you insert and remove the phone from the pocket. However, the back will always have fingerprints as your hand is going to be covering the back as you grasp the phone in your pocket. Ya feel me guys?
I've gone for black as it looks sleeker. If you apply the front and rear screen covers contained in the box the fingerprint problem is much less. It's just the factory applied anti-shatter films that show lots of fingerprints.
White, because it's very beautiful
Gone for white as i love white phones I also hope it wont show as many fingerprint marks on the back of it
oh and

It had a poll and black was by far the most popular.
Still haven't made up my mind: purple or black?
I have pre-ordered a purple one simply because it is beautiful and unique, it's deep purple color so it also suits men.

It's a Sony after all Their purple devices go great with everything.
Got myself a black one - black/silver are colours of high-tech for me.
Anyone bought white?

I like white phones but i don't like the white Z. I don't like two colored phones. If it was completely white, fine -but it's not- soo i'll go with the black one.
Any one with white xperia z? Can you tell us how it looks from front comparing with black one? Does it looks premium like black one?

We've been discussing this on another thread, and there's a link to a video comparing the black vs purple on the last page (as of today)

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.

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?

I think the plastic edges might 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.

Wanted to know how you liked it? I have the white one but I've had like 4 white phones in a row and was thinking of trading for a black. I'll be putting a skin on it so not worried about fingerprints. Let me know how you like it otherwise compared to white.
Went from an old white Z1 compact to a black X compact myself. Not much to say about it though lol. It's black and looks good. The only issue is that it's a fingerprint magnet. But if your putting a clear or colored skin on it that pretty much solves the problem. Only other thing I can think of to say is it's kind of an off black. Basically at times in the light it can look like an extremely dark navy blue at times which is kinda cool.
Have the black. In direct sunlight it looks more dark blue but in household lighting it looks black. Pretty slick looking. I really wish they would have made a yellow like the Z5C. I kinda felt like owning an ostentatious phone this time.
I have tried both and I can say that white version is a lot nicer in my opinion
you wont see any fingerprint or scratch easily and also the nicely curved back looks elegant on white and blue versions...
