[HTC One X] Chad_Petree:
I can't decide really, the white one looks beautiful but i had a white galaxy s ii, and it ruins the continuity of the screen, makes the bezel on the front stand out and therefore it looks bigger , the gun metal grey version is nice, but it's nothing spectacular, which version will you choose?
[HTC One X] n7of9:
definitely the gray...i don't want spuds asking me if it's an ipoop
[HTC One X] broncogr:
Gray for me also
[HTC One X] knightrocker:
hehe .... just evened out the poll ... grey for me too :)

EDIT: just looked at the white again and now i cant decide :P i guess ill make the choice on the spot ... depends on how they look up live :P
[HTC One X] hamdir:
i still can't decide :(
[HTC One X] remmus2k:
Going white. Grey looks too.... plain.

If im going to have it for a while it must be pleasing to my eye, I care not if people think its a iphone.
[HTC One X] vegetaleb:
I will take the White:

-To change from N1,DHD and Sensation I had (and have)

-Because it looks smaller

-Because I like futuristic star wars black and white design
[HTC One X] Hawkysoft:
well i actually am still in a state where i can't decide

however i wonder if the white one is very infective?

maybe not the right chose of words, but i mean if the white will get dirty is it easy to clean or will it lose it's whiteness over time?

and before you are going to ask me weird stuff... i hobby allot with cars and in the garden and stuff.. >.<
[HTC One X] gordongartrell:
Every single phone that I've ever owned has been a black or grey phone. This time, i'm getting a white phone. White One X for me.
[HTC One X] Laxsjoe:
Same here. White it is!
[HTC One X] Brac20:
When I first saw the images from MWC I said grey.

Once I'd seen some high res shots of the two I quickly changed my mind.

I think the white shows off the design more and I think its a design that deserves showing off.

The only downside to the white one is that I don't like the silver lens surround.
[HTC One X] hamdir:
Well we still need to see the final grey version, many bloggers pointed out the one from MWC is not final and the Vodafone video shows a different finish
[HTC One X] Chad_Petree:
I dont know why i obsses about it so much if it would end up being on a case, yes polycarbonate may be highly durable but there's no lens cover for the camera so it's vulnerable to scratches :(
[HTC One X] hamdir:
where did u see no lens cover? its definitely recessed behind the silver ring its pretty well protected

the Desire HD is similar to this and its a very good solution
[HTC One X] Chad_Petree:
Maybe it's a little recessed, im not convinced, i own an inspire 4g and my camera lens has two scratches :(

Now this is a real camera lens cover
[HTC One X] DaveDesire:
I can't decide either. I love the white from the front and sides, but I prefer the back on the black/grey.

I think I'd go for white out the two but I don't think I'll get the choice anyway as I'm with T-Mobile (UK) and supposedly Vodafone are getting an exclusive on the white version, other networks getting grey
[HTC One X] kanylbullen:
I just ordered one from 3 in sweden but didn't specify the color so it will be a surprise! :D
[HTC One X] Hawkysoft:
now i will smile when you receive a purple one with golden edges or plain pink xD
[HTC One X] dexteral:
+1 agreed - will give a changed look
[HTC One X] Brac20:
3 will be having both colours. At least I know both are available via the staff handset deal
[HTC One X] MarylandCookie:
Gun Metal Grey here also :)
[HTC One X] Wells.p:
Gun Metal Grey and also its sounds cool.

got mine now for half a day!
[HTC One X] RocknTroll:
Got mine in grey. Although I agree the white version better exhibits the device's sleek design and makes pretty wallpapers appear prettier, the grey version exudes professionalism and maturity in a way the white cannot in my opinion. I prefer that look since it better suits my line of work and desired lifestyle. To be honest, neither colour would appeal to me as much as matte black on this particular device.
[HTC One X] combat goofwing:
Never had a white phone till I got this one and I love it very different in it sleek curved design and white just finishes it off
[HTC One X] bangsters:
Does the white look too feminine? I have the white amaze, and I all my friends and coworkers (guys and girls) were messing with me saying I got a girly phone... so I swapped the white backing for a black backing....

...so is it the same with the One X???
[HTC One X] danny8787:
WHITE!

White!!!!go white!
[HTC One X] Balong020:
Choose the white one. if you want a Magical effect, after 1-2 months it will Turn to Yellow.. :D

Choose the Gray one. Good for a Long run.

now Decide. :)
[HTC One X] Tinderbox (UK):
I wanted a black one x, but they only had white, but i really like the white now and would not swap it for a black, a just hope it does not go dirty in a couple of month`s :D

John.
[HTC One X] kenshin1:
Get the white one.. Great eye candy every time you look at it! Yes, it does get dirty at times but easierly wipes off with a wet cloth.
[HTC One X] CaveManDave:
Grey, white phones look cheap and tacky :)
[HTC One X] ste1164:
I went for the gray as I already have a white iPhone and I didn't want two white phones.
[HTC One X] projectkennedy:
Noooo! that is a horrible lens cover. I somehow got particles in there and it scratched up the lens and I couldn't get the particles out and it was a nightmare. The scratches meant that if I used the flash, the pictures wouldn't come out at all.
[HTC One X] shogun168:
Definitely white for me .. just gotta keep it clean that's all
[HTC One X] hellcommando:
Something like just above the mike, the stain is actually quite significant

After a week, I get a black line just below the lens and a clear darken back cover. Please advise me if you know any method to clean, I have tried soap, water, even rubber, but none of them are working.
[HTC One X] The-Last-Hylian:
Jezus, I thought it took awhile to load this page, how big are those images? :p

I'd have thought soapy water would have managed to keep it fairly clean... maybe babywipes?
[HTC One X] hello00:
next time when you buy a white phone, do it like i do it and you won't have any problems about getting your phone dirty/darker you name it
[HTC One X] hellcommando:
Will try, but I guess since not even soapy water can clean it, it might need something stronger because the stain seems etching into the surface.

Yeah, I got this after the first week before got the stain at the back (stain at the edge I got it within a week), so I suspect part of the stain such as the darkish line below the camera are from this cover.
[HTC One X] stiflerakos:
W H I T E just fantastic....
[HTC One X] combat goofwing:
having had the white one for a week now i find the only thing thats has left marks is holding it having just read the paper it gets black marks all over ,but a damp cloth soon removes them it still looks like new
[HTC One X] nikzDHD:
Got both in my possession at the moment.

You can find some photo's here:

Sorry for the dust and fingerprints!
[HTC One X] DamoElDiablo:
Anyone I've talked to (bar one workmate) seemed to prefer the white finish. Having had the Hero in white, and seeing it gradually discolour in a few spots over time (where the finish wore off) I went for the black, and definitely prefer the look of it myself, looks more like a single unit. If the screen didn't have the black surround, I may have considered the white a bit more.
[HTC One X] twistedh:
I really wanted a white one when I first saw it and all my previous phones have been black or similar. I had my mind made up, saw a demo model in the local htc shop and loved it and then when I went to pick up my phone on release day they had a grey one as well and thought it looked much sexier in the grey :)

Very pleased so far, but I can really see on the back when it is a little greasy!
[HTC One X] Techimplant:
There u go..my one x..stunning:D

Sent from my Stunning White HTC One X
[HTC One X] alphagamma:
I have the same problem, the plastic body getting darker at the left and bottom side. Apart from that I'm really happy with the One X.

It is my first white phone, the back seems to be much better at staying clean.

I'm really starting to think it is some issue with the plastic. In a well lit room is looks really ugly.

I hope it can be cleaned in some way with a special product that ofcourse doesn't mess up the surface.
[HTC One X] Ch3wyzzz:
Gun metal plus a case of bugatti steel leather
[HTC One X] stezo2k:
I usually love white but I'm really not fond of the white one plus I can imagine the white one will show all the marks
[HTC One X] Pliskinius:
I have the white one - the front looks just awesome!

But i think there is some problem with it (maybe just mine device)

The blunt white changes to shiny/greasy (no, its clean, no grease on it :D)

have someone else this problem? Mostly right and lest of the frontspeaker.
[HTC One X] vallandil:
Really loving the white one.

So i got myself one...

Next day the girl comes home with another white One X..

So all white here....
[HTC One X] alphagamma:
yes, but on left and lower side.
[HTC One X] ikitub:
just bought yesterday a white HOX.
[HTC One X] novak84:
Personally i think the white one looks fantastic. People look at the white and are impressed.

I have got the grey due to the fact i dont think i can keep the pretty white one looking white ;-) i just think as someone that uses the tube alot, walking the dog, jogging etc i think it will end up looking disgusting....oh i dont like to use covers as it spoils the beauty of the phone.

So grey it is for me and my missus said it looks exactly the same as your old phone (desire) but bigger, i have to agree with her, nothing exciting about the grey look but the phone is wonderful!
[HTC One X] hamdir:
not for me i had to try for few weeks until i found a faultless (so far) One X

and definitely grey beats the white in my eyes

the white feels refreshing first but after a while it gets old and start looking like a toy

the grey is pure high tech attraction, laid out on the table, begging to be picked up

though your fears are right, if the soft coat peals off you get the glossier grey below, mine had a slight imperfection under the front screen with a slight scratch revealing this, i think because it was already opened in the showroom

ill try to take a picture, white hides those scratches better
[HTC One X] vegetaleb:
I was going for a white hox after several grey HTC devices but if the white coating goes off after a while then I will take the grey
[HTC One X] hamdir:
no let me explain, the rubber brushed part will peel off on heavy use, unless you use a pouch n keep it over the pouch or cover, both white and grey

but in my opinion the white looks a lot like plastic in its premium state and the worse it gets the more it looks plastic

the grey's piano glossy is much better than white glossy, but this a purely a taste thing bro

i take care of my HTCs they always remaind in almost box condition because i use a pouch and never put it on hard surfaces

the nice thing about that coating is that you can clean it with some wet wipe, but they are not scratch proof

if you use it like people their iPhones, i mean naked, don't expect it to last pristine

lol just noticed the votes are almost split in half
[HTC One X] vegetaleb:
I never used covers on my HTC because the rubber coating never pealed off,only the plastic part in the back of my ex-N1 losed paint, but is this One X different than previous HTc in terms of the ''rubber'' coating part?

I never put with keys or any metalic items
[HTC One X] hamdir:
its not rubber coating, anandtech explained it better, its something like sand blasting

http://www.anandtech.com/show/5779/htc-one-x-for-att-review

you can see the sate of his grey, his scuff marks he mentioned are around he beats logo
[HTC One X] eve7:
I have both the white and grey here. Does anyone feel like the grey one feels more sturdier?

Sent from my HTC One X
[HTC One X] vegetaleb:
Oh I see it now, so it's the part of the phone which will be in contact with tables?

In that case yes, grey will be better than shiny white,especially that in our country our hands get swetty 5 months over 12
[HTC One X] hamdir:
yes this is exactly how my cousin look, eroded on the sides and wet

but grey will show marks better :)

so really get what you like, i was just defending grey
[HTC One X] Goku80:
i had both and i must say my grey one is a lot more nicer and sexier...
[HTC One X] hamdir:
yea mate the white "fresh" factor wears off very quickly
[HTC One X] vegetaleb:
I have a Cowon J3 white and yes it looks better in pics than in real life,I was not ''amazed'' by the white HOX in real life as I expected, while the grey looked more solid and ''serious''
[HTC One X] Goku80:
true mate...was all for the white version...had 3 phones so far..first two were white and now my third and perfect one is the grey.

with the two white ones for some reason it must be me but on the power button if you had a view of the phone from the top you can see on the right hand side at the bottom of the power button that there is like a tiny tiny hole there.

Now i know it is must be me being picky but when i got my grey one the power button i checked and no holes there like the white ones had. plus as someone said holding the grey one for me felt more solid and more nicer in the hand for some reason instead of the white.
[HTC One X] eve7:
Yeah my white one feels like it will break easily or feels delicate. My grey feels like one solid piece and the screen seems solid even the bottoms are more solid. Just feels like the grey one has been made a little bit better. I am a female so I do like the look of the white but it wont matter to much as it will be in a flip case anyway.

Sent from my HTC One X
[HTC One X] Htc_One_X:
Sorry its got to be the white, every mobile I've had has been on white. ALways looks fresh.
[HTC One X] kkarnaout:
ill definitely go with the white HTC ONE X. had my white x10 that lasted only 1month and died on me, cpu burned as u can see in my signature ...

Will us a black cover on top of it when im at work and uni and in crazy places, but when in a party or some cool **** i show off the whiteness of the ONE X :P

ps: jumping from Desire to this quad beast will be amazing :D:D

"HAPPY LIKE A KID WITH CHOCOLATE" :P
[HTC One X] DaveDesire:
Interesting. I'd heard Vodafone had an exclusive on the white but maybe not. Going off the pictures on their websites, it looks like grey One X's on O2, Orange and T-Mobile, where as Voda and 3 show white.
[HTC One X] chbg:
I went with the white one, it just looks more pleasing to me.

Nice to get one that´s unlocked to and not tied to my operator :D
[HTC One X] eteyen1:
I've voted for the white but I am still very undecided. I personally think the white one looks better in the pictures I've seen, while the black one just doesnt look anything special.

But my inner reservation is that I generally dont like white phones because they are too in your face and show-offey to me.

The black one looks elegant but not eye catching, while the white one looks beautiful but perhaps a bit too much..? Plus you know everyone will say its trying to be the iphone.

Decisions decisions!
[HTC One X] meson1:
To me white for a mobile is just ... wrong. They just don't look right to me. The grey/black one looks classy though.

When I come to upgrade when the One X comes out, if they only do the white one, or can't guarantee what colour I'll get, that right there will be a deal breaker.
[HTC One X] kanylbullen:
Me to probably... :p
[HTC One X] Noy[ah]:
I just ordered the Nordic White one :)
[HTC One X] SvenSSSvensson:
I will go for the grey. Have a white O2x now. Would have gone for the white if the border around the display was white to. Don't like that is both display, black and white.
[HTC One X] Naesstrom:
Will a white one... stay white?

I'm having troubles deciding what color to get to... I've had a dark Desire for 2 years now and it still looks pretty good.

Would be fun with a new color but I'm just worried that a white phone will turn grey before the 2 years have gone!
[HTC One X] djolebih:
I got the white one. Yes I know, gets dirty easier, looks kinda girly, blah blah.. But it is just mighty and shows more detail then the gray.
[HTC One X] Dunc001:
Been wrestling with myself over this very question since I placed my pre-order a couple of weeks ago. Just bitten the bullet and emailed to change my order from Grey to White...
[HTC One X] chrisjcks:
I'm on the fence still, as I await the Samsung galaxy s3 specs & price.

But HTC one x is VERY high on my list.

As a 26yr old male, I too would choose the white over the grey, so I wouldn't say it looks girly. :)

It just looks better to me over the grey which looks a bit boring.

(Even though I've never owned a white phone before)
[HTC One X] jonas2295:
Guys I need your help :)

Preordered a gray one ^^

But I dunno if it's the right choice anymore.

I have my HD2 which is black and it looks cool and decent so ordered the grey but after all your posts here I am confused :/

Help me out of this dilemma.

Thanks
[HTC One X] HydroSkillet:
It shouldn't loose it's whiteness. The polyurethane is the same color all the way through. That being said white is going to show any dark marks that can get rubbed into the plastic from like something hard black and rubber (I still think white is my way to go however).

Is the gray made of the same stuff? If the gray is using that aluminum which HTC puts the 10k volts through, I would prefer that... just my opinion.
[HTC One X] jonas2295:
Isn't this technique reserved for the one v?

Or will it be done for all one phones? Because they only showed the one v on the HTC video
[HTC One X] ZeroRilix:
Actually, that was the One S
[HTC One X] HydroSkillet:
I'm 95% positive it's for the One V only.... but I haven't seen any vids or reviews of the Gray X. From what I saw no way the White X has anything like this because you could see where they could push in the casing and it flex on the back panel.
[HTC One X] hawkeye2188:
Tough choice on the color as they both look great, but I think ill be going with white if I decide to get this phone.
[HTC One X] matt07930:
It's a tough decision, I've ordered a white one as it looks a little different to other HTC phones and I think a wee bit nicer than the grey.

Having said that, they both look good. Would be just as happy with the grey model.
[HTC One X] :
The white seems to stand out more and looks nothing like an iPhone. Besides the fact that this thing dwarfs the iPhone, it dosent have glass on it either.

White > Grey.
[HTC One X] ZeroRilix:
I'm gonna go with the grey. After having a white Vivid, which looks better in white the way it is designed, the grey actually looks better to me. The white does still look good, just to me, the grey looks a little bit better. No one can say which looks better to someone who can't decide. Everyone is different, and has differing reasons for picking the color they picked. Though, the majority in this thread, puts the white over the grey by a substantial margin. Hopefully, AT&T learned their lesson from the Vivid and will let the white be sold along side the grey, instead of only in certain markets like the white Vivid.
[HTC One X] DaveDesire:
I think the white looks really nice from the front/sides and suits the phone better. Not a fan of the silver camera bulge on the back though.

I wish the grey version was a proper matte grey and not a dark grey- that'd be nice.
[HTC One X] Chad_Petree:
Which color would you like for the camera ring? white? red?
[HTC One X] Brac20:
The camera bulge would have been better in white I think. It would have continued the seemless look the rest of the phone has
[HTC One X] joshoon:
Also pre-orderred the gray one.

I find the white one pretty nice, but more for woman :rolleyes:
[HTC One X] haltemien:
Is there any youtube videos of the grey one? I was gonna go for grey, but after seeing the white model in all the videos, I am not so sure anymore.

but i expect by the beginning of May there should me plenty on online competition bringing the price down

---------- Post added at 08:56 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:55 AM ----------

thanks, that clinched it for me...the white just looks like a lollipop to me
[HTC One X] Anthropologic:
I don't know.. the white one will be dirty so fast..
[HTC One X] jonas2295:
Hmm its soooo hard :)

But atm I have ordered the grey one...

But both look good and my opinion could change quickly in this decision
[HTC One X] Anthropologic:
So, I close my eyes and choose anyone :D You're right, it's a hard decision.
[HTC One X] haltemien:
Is it just me, or are fingermarks more visible on the grey version than on the white?

Edit: And the glossy sides on the grey version, looks like someone forgot to remove the plastic. Looks a bit cheap. It didnt seem that visible on the white one.
[HTC One X] chrisjcks:
Might have just been handled alot.

Doesn't matter to me, I prefer the white - its more eye catching & less boring. :)
[HTC One X] Laxsjoe:
I think you´re right. Havent tought about that earlier but the grey version do look pretty "greasy" in many videos on youtube.

In the beginning i prefered the grey phone but as you said, the glossy sides of the grey phone look really bad and makes the phone look kind of cheap.
[HTC One X] :
Yep same here. I always had black phones. Time for a change, so I'm getting the white :D
[HTC One X] Horridge:
I really can't decide, I want the white because I fancy something a bit different, but after the novelty has worn off, I might think of myself as a bit douchey, and the white is gonna show all the wear and tear.
[HTC One X] DomCowell:
I am feeling white at the moment, but am struggling to decide which I will/would go for. The grey also looks really good, and would be less likely to get marks etc..
[HTC One X] jameslfc5:
100% agree
[HTC One X] Chad_Petree:
video not available :(
[HTC One X] DomCowell:
Assuming that is for your country - working fine for me - UK.
[HTC One X] bighead81:
Just pre-ordered grey, HK$5698 with the Solo headphone

I like the white one, but it reminds me my wife's white Xperia S....what a dirt lover:D
[HTC One X] eteyen1:
is all this talk about the white one (or white phones in general) being more prone to getting dirty true? And if so, what sort of dirt are you all talking about? Is the dirt easy to wipe off? It would seem a bit silly for phone companies not to realise that white poses a dirt problem so I'm not too convinced by these claims? Can someone shed more light please.
[HTC One X] jameslfc5:
Some places are according add black and in the macho review the photo posted is black

I want the black one :( had grey with my Gnex and really disliked it (although the HTC is a nicer grey)
[HTC One X] Audioboxer:
Any idea when we may see the final build of the Grey/Black casing? (isn't everything online right now unfinished?) Wish it was jet black.
[HTC One X] hungcolin:
I also consider about it. But the black one look so simply。
[HTC One X] jermx:
I saw some hands on videos with the grey one. One or two video showed the sides of the grey one and it was like piano black with a glossy finish. That turned me off.

Anyway I'm going for the launch event for HTC One in my country so will take a look first before deciding :)
[HTC One X] skyn8t:
Yup same here did not like the look of the black piano finish. Just placed an order for the white one.
[HTC One X] maverick1103:
Just pre-ordered the white one, it looks lovely in white, I've got a SGS2 in black and the white just looks cheap, hope this isn't the case with the One X!
[HTC One X] Aja82:
I've pre-ordered the grey one. There's something about white phones I just don't like.....
