Black/Silver? Whats your pick?

Sandiman · Mar 7, 2013

In one video I saw the presenter had both colours to show and said the black one was much more of a finger print magnet than the white/silver? one.

Also to my poor old eyes the back of the black one looked very much like the material used on the Nokia 920 but what do I know???

Here are some pictures of the black and silver one.
I like the silver one

Imagine the plastic stripes on the back were red

Red on black would've looked sexy. Imagine the thing matching the beats logo on the back.. mmm

Thank you!
Now with these pics I can say Silver is def better,the black one feels more plastic this time in both face and back angles

You can tell how things feel from the pictures? They're both Aluminium so should feel near enough identical?

NiCk.JaY · Mar 7, 2013

I find photos very misleading. I definitely won't buy without seeing both in person, though I'm leaning towards the Silver one ATM

I was tempted to change to the silver one, until I spoke with Amazon.co.uk...

Me:Last question, if I cancel the black one, and order the silver instead, is there definitely going to be enough stock to fulfil my order for the 15th>
Lucie Marie :I cannot guarantee that but if you place an order and it is completed then one will definitely be reserved for you.
Are we still connected Luke?

Luke Skywalker?

Yeah I know nobody knows before seeing in real both colors,but from the pics of the black it feels too fade compared to the contrast between the (black) screen and the grey aluminum frames.
The black's back looks more prone to greasy fingerprints too

Yeah, I might just stick with the dark side.

AW: Black/Silver? Whats your pick?

Red accents would look great, I've ordered the slip case that has a red panel on the inside so maybe that would still look pretty decent?

I will also order that case. In combination with black one it will look awesome.

In pictures I prefer the silver a bit more but today I saw the silver at a store and okay it still looks awesome but not as I imagined.
I have the opinion that I have too see both in real and hold them. Pictures very often are very misleading.

Looking at those pictures, the Black display appears to be a flat piece of glass with the rim separate from the screen, whereas the Silver glass appears to go edge to edge with a taper.

Am I seeing things? Are each models designed differently?!

No they both have it, I can see on the silver one as well.

LadFromWales85 · Mar 7, 2013

Have you got a link to a pic that shows this?

Still can't decide on colour tbh!

You can definitely see it in this picture:

Not the best of quality but you can see it going across the edge of the screen.

LadFromWales85 · Mar 7, 2013

Cheers for that.

Hmm, not too sure on that design aspect. Think I prefer the black. Wish there were live display models near here!

I agree. I was almost certain that i wanted the black, but seeing so many pictures of the silver makes me want it as well. I also think that the black doesn't appear like its aluminum when you look at it, and when people look at my phone i want them to know its made out of high quality material (also it appears to be a grease magnet). The silver seems like it would be more stylish and out there compared to the black. I've always had a black phone though and it just seems standard now. I'm gonna have to see both of the devices in person for me to make a decision.

I'm almost certainly going for the black, silver seems a bit too flash or bling. Black seems more subtle, more stealthy, more elegant and perhaps more mature.

I'd prefer silver!

Update1: looks gorgeous in Red! So new choice Red!

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

Update 2: There is a serious doubt on the existence of the Red version. I'll suspend the Red on from this thread for the time being

i dont care about black and silver.. it look like the same, but red is low one

h.han · Mar 8, 2013

After seeing the silver demo device, I was pretty much sold to the silver one, but yesterday I dreamed myself holding the black one and using it as my own phone, I am confused again!!!
