Black & Slate or White & Silver

^This I can't wait until my Black one comes today!

I have always chose black but I think I am going to go the other way and get white.

It appears Black is the favourite!

Personally I got white. Have liked the white since iPhone 4s so it was a no brainer for me.

I have had a black iPhone every since the iPhone 3G. For the iPhone 5 I have a white/ silver 16gb coming this week can't wait!

Wanted black, ended up with white.

well i was gonna go with the black cause it looked better in the videos but i touched both at the apple store and the black feels cheap/pastic to me. white feels just like the 4s (a good thing) so I MIGHT go with that

Well if that's how you feel I have nothing to argue.
For me. The black feels very business like. like it belongs to elite.

Just my two cents worth

I love the black one, but I read on a few different forums that the black one is prone to shedding color, thus revealing the raw silver aluminum below. So I'll go white,

When it comes to iPhones I tend to flip back in fourth with the colors. On the 3GS I prefer the white but on the iPhone 4/4s I prefer the black. But on the iPhone 5 I would choose the white model and replace the LCD screen with a black one. I think the black is a great but it will show wear and tear very easy

Usually go black but the last one at the store I went to was white so I took it. It's growing on me...

I stayed with black as I've had all along, I like the fact that the black phone fades into the background when you're reading or playing a game. I love the look of the white also but I felt more comfortable staying with something I already knew I liked.

They were out of White when I bought my iPhone 4, so this time I preorderd at and got a white iP5! Love it... I got a temporary case at Best buy, covers up the silver band too much, but I love the colors! Was able to put on my Zag HD screen protector without any particles too.

I don't care if the black one might get scuffs. I have to be able to use it. White is too distracting.

White, but Maybe Going back to Black

I was tenth in line at the Verizon store and they were sold out of the 16GB in black. I debated trying to get one elsewhere, but I didn't want to leave empty handed and just took a white one. I've got 14 days to switch it out for a black one when they get more in. I'll be honest, the white is growing on me. I have it in a Commuter Series Otterbox, so my phone is sort of white and black with it. The plan is still to switch it out, but I'm starting to consider just keeping the white one.

I reserved a 16GB black at Best Buy. The night before I got the email saying they didn't have the phone I ordered and could be waiting up to 28 days. So, I went in to the store yesterday, they had 1 extra, 32GB White.... I went with it and it has grown on me almost immediately. The style of the white and aluminum reminds me of the Macbook Pro. I think it looks very nice. The potential for scuffing on the black one concerned me quite a bit.

Im getting the black, the wifey is in the white.

 

[Raptor007]

I chose the black/slate because of the uniform color scheme, plus I just haven't used a white phone in the past and wanted to keep mine looking sharp.

Daughter got the white, her boyfriend got black. Both look amazing. He is very meticulous about his devices and the black is already showing signs of wear on the back from being set down on the table etc. Unless things change, I'll go with the white 32GB model this time and take a break from all the black devices I've had over the years.

 

[M.J.Clark]

One of each.


I bought the Black/ Slate and bought a White and Silver for the wife on Friday. She wanted black, but there was only one left in the store and she had told me that if needed, she would go with a white one.

She now wants a pink otterbox though....
