But when the black one overheats, it won't leave a nasty pink burn mark on the back.

The white iphone did not overheat, the pink marks were proven to have been caused by the case it was in. The white iphone was cleaned with alcohol and the pink marks disappeared.

I was worried about this is if I got a white iphone 4g but I looked into it.

Black.

I like the more square design of the phone. It looks very Sony Ericsson but will be miles better.

The last white phone I had was the 3330. Not sure if I would have another one. Bit of a fashion faux pas for a bloke I reckon

The black looks much better in the iPhone 4.

I had a Prada phone when they came out and the new iPhone looks a lot like that! Square design, silver rim, flat back. But it looks a lot nicer and less cheap the iPhone 4

I'm leaning towards black now, I might regret it if I get a white one, whereas I know I will be happy with a black one.

Another thing thats now put me off the white one... the strip of sensors above the speaker on the front look a bit ugly.

asyousay · 09-06-2010, 18:32

I do really want a white one but it does look less impressive sadly. Think i like the white one when its just the back thats white.

Bagsbunny · 10-06-2010, 01:00

Why can't we have red, or blue, or green, or tangerine or whatever-they manage all sorts of colours with the ipod nano, why not the Phone? Judging by all the multicoloured cases and skins I see, the idea that adults don't go for colours seems nonsense to me!

aaran-j · 10-06-2010, 01:55

The white version looks rather tacky I'm afraid. The black version looks fantastic though.

ashjf · 10-06-2010, 11:02

Why don't they make a gold one, seeing as they look at the iPhone as being a premium product.

Maybe stainless steel too, with engravings as an added extra, they do engravings in the US.....Don't they?

myromeo · 10-06-2010, 12:20

had a white 3G and 3GS but the black 4 looks much nicer IMO.

ill stick with my 3GS

superboy · 10-06-2010, 12:20

a red one might be nice (or might be hideous, can't quite tell

)

but anyway will probs get a black one

I have always thought that white iPhones look chavvy.

I think this one would look weird with a white back and black front, because when held sideways it looks symetrical, whereas the back was a different shape before.

I always thought they look more suited to girls, even more so now with the bumper colours (such as pink).
