Glacial silver and satisfied. First time using Sense and I'm still getting used to the quirks of the camera. This being my first all metal phone, it's very slippery so I begrudgingly ordered the dot matrix case.

Where were you able to find a grey dot case? Verizon only showed black in stock for me.

I was able to get a gray one yesterday from verizon's site fwiw.

Got the Glacial Silver one on accident. For whatever reason I THOUGHT that the colors were just like the M7's: that the darker option on the Verizon site was going to be a black metal I hadn't seen and the lighter option was the brushed aluminum look that is in literally every video of the device. My friend has the black M7, so I figured I'd go the route opposite him. Honestly, aesthetics didn't play a big role in why I got the phone, it was the specs (dat 801 tho). I hadn't looked for pics comparing the color options until after I placed my order. Whoops!

That said: Satisfied!

I have the gunmetal grey version. My case has a clear back with rubber trim. I'm very satisfied with it.

Gunmetal Gray - I was torn initially between Glacial Silver and Gunmetal Gray, but once I saw them in person and actually touched the Gunmetal Gray,I was pretty much sold on it.

Silver; have a clear backed case (with the black trim) I purchased at the store. Waiting for an all-clear TPU case to arrive.

Same one I have. I have to admit.. I am supremely impressed with this phone.

Coming from Silver M7, I am very satisfied via gun-metal grey.
I am awaiting a grey TPU case from cruzerlite which I think will give it a nice look.

Silver w/ Dot case. Didn't like the streaks of the Gunmetal.
No complaints!

I am sort of happy. Happy with gunmetal over all the other colors, but I really really wanted this in red and black like the Sprint M7. That thing is so sexy.

But I am happy enough with the gunmetal that I really don't want to put a case on it because it would cover it.

    Gunmetal. Sick as hell. My vzw rep actually brought me all 3 colors and let me keep them for a day to decide, but really the grey is by far the best aesthetically. I'll say though that all 3 are on par with or better than iPhone in terms of build quality. Highly satisfied.

    I got the gunmetal gray with a gray dotview case. Im extremely happy with the phone, and i'm sure the dot case is going to grow on me once I break it in. The cover is too stiff right now and tends to flap shut if i accidentally let it go. I'd like to be able to sit my phone on a table and the dot cover lay open beside it instead of having to fold it under, which makes the phone unlevel.

    That said, before I got the cover in, the height of the phone was a little bit of an issue with reaching the power button with my small hands, but that's a non-issue now since the case locks and unlocks the phone automatically.

    Overall satisfied with my purchases.
