IPhone 5: White vs Black vs Gold?

I'm kind of in a tough situation (in my opinion), my dad decided to give me and my mom an early birthday present, so he switched from Sprint to T-Mobile and told us that we would get a NEW iPhone 5 S on Friday (He got a Sony Z). I was so excited, but since iOS 7 is also coming (which I am in total geek mode over), My dad told me that it had 3 colors, white, black, and gold. I have never owned a Black iPhone, I have always stuck with White, but I was wondering if I should change it up or keep it.
What do you think?

Last I checked, this was a "Support Community" where people discuss things. The dude had a question - albeit seemingly silly - and wanted some public input. If you have nothing positive to add, please don't litter this forum with your poor attitude. Instead, maybe opt to say nothing at all.
With the iPhone 4S, the color very much mattered as some people had light leakage issues and such. Also, this new iOS - given how bright it is - seems like it constrasts better with the while. I have the same dilemma, and I'm leaning towards sticking with the white.

  • Should I buy iPhone 5 white or black??

    Hello! I have trouble in choosing the right colour of iPhone 5 for me! I like both colours.. :D but I can't afford for two!! :D I like the black because the screen of the phone is seem to be large and it merges with the black boarder. So it looks amazing! But I worry black if it is scratched, the iPhone will be very ugly.. The white is also good! When I use cover, it's beautiful! Each colour is great! But i can't choose the right one for me! Help me with this..! :)

    I got the white one and it's beautiful
    My best friend and I both got our iPhone 5s last month; she got the black one. I wanted to get the black one at first, but didn't want to have the same color of phone as my friend, so I opted for the white instead.... and did not regret it! The white just looks absolutely beautiful in phone cases, jelly, silicon, any light colored cases as well as dark. The black phone not so much. Also, when naked, the white iPhone looks like a diamond. It's shiny, shimmery, splendid. lol.
    Also, my friend's black iPhone is begining to get scuffs on the edges, even though she has a case on it.
    My white iPhone still looks brand new, like out-of-the-box brand new.

  • Can i replace iphone  5 white to black?

    i have i phone 5 white ...in this phone many problem so i wolud to replace it... can i replace white colour to black colour????

    Hi Milan Savani.
    No - they will not change it no matter what.  All warranty and out of warranty exchanges are for the exact same model, color, and storage capacity as the device you turn in.

  • HT1349 The iPhone 4S setting (white on black) it is so cool! But one thing that I don't know if Apple is aware of this glitch or not, but they need to fix it, when you go to that mode every picture and every icon go to negative view, has anyone experience

    One very COOL feature on iPhone 4S that I just discovered, is the (White on Black) display mode, which is so cool and atrictive. When you go to that mode, every picture on the iPhone, facebook, icons and every other applications that displays a picture are effected, native or installed Apps. that displays a picture goes in to negative view, if you want to view your pictures, you have to go back to the default setting, very disappointing.
    This is a very cool feature and Apple needs to find a way that all photos are immune and preserved from the conversion when a user switches to that mode.
    Love to hear your comments and suggestions and I'm sure that Apple developers can come up with a solution to fix the glitch.

    Hmmmm, http://www.seattlepi.com/ loads fine hear in 10.4.11, FF 3.6.8, but I do see it uses some kind of Flash.
    The last really supported Flash for PPC was 10.1.102.64, but if it's for like Facebook or such, people have been fooling FB to think they have a leter version installed.

    (If you are running a PPC Mac with Flash Player 10.1.102.64 and are having problems with watching videos on FaceBook or other sites, contributor Texas Mac Man suggests the following solution which fools the site into thinking that you are running the latest version:)
    Download this http://www.steelbin.com/FPforFBPPC.zip to your desktop, unzip it, and replace the current Flash Player plug-in which is in your main/Library/Internet Plug-Ins folder, (not the user Library). Save the old one just in case this one doesn't work.

  • Iphone 6 plus screen flashing white and black

    My iPhone 6 Plus 16Gb suddenly started to show screen artifacs, like flashing with white and black, so I can't see the springboard only black and white screen. Restart of the phone didn't help. Even when the phone is booting, Apple logo doesn't appear and then again flashes. As it seems on background everything is working, as I can receive sms and phone calls. It is just the screen. iPhobe 6 Plus is brand new, I've been using it for 1 week and it never dropped. No physical damage, no nothing, just flashing

    Have you tried a Reset by holding down the Sleep / Wake Button and the Home Button at the same time until the white Apple logo appears, then let go of the buttons, but wait until the Reset completes and you are back at your lock-screen?  If this doesn't work then do you have a computer with the current version of iTunes?  If yes and you already have a Backup of your Media and Data on iCloud or iTunes, then you can put the iPhone in DFU Mode.  Don't do this unless you have a Backup and also have a computer with the latest iTunes.  You will need your Apple ID and Password.  To go to DFU Mode you can hold the Home button while you plug the Lightning Cable into the iPhone, a graphic will appear on the iPhone screen showing that you need to connect to iTunes.  At that point just connect the iPhone via the Lightning Cable with USB into your Computer.  Open the iTunes App on the Computer and wait until a button appears representing the connected iPhone.  Then click on the iPhone button on the iTunes screen and it should open to the Summary page.  At that point you can Restore the iPhone to Factory Settings and bring it up as A New Phone.  The iPhone should screen should then show Hello and you will need to connect to your WiFi via your Router WiFi Password and then answer all the question put forth by the iPhone.  When the "Lets Get Started" occurs you can thoroughly check out the iPhone to make sure it is all OK.  When satisfied that things are good, you can plug into the computer and iTunes and this time Restore from Backup.  or if you Backup is in iCloud you can Restore over the air. 

  • IPhone 5 Battery stays at the same percentage, phone fades shows white and black lines then dies. Now phone screen is shaking and does the same thing.

    My iPhone 5 which has been working fine has only today started to get these problems. The phones battery percentage stays at the same number and only changes if i swith it off or when it does it byitself but then stays at that number. When I use it it constantly turns off by slowly fading then showing white and black lines then going off. The screen is now shaking and keeps turning off. It was on IOS 6 which I just updated as I thought this could be the issue but it still does the same thing on IOS 7. Has anyone else experienced these problems or know what is wrong with my iPhone?
    Please reply!

    Sounds like the device is failing. Since you updated to iOS 7, that would do the same as a restore. I would make an appointment at the Genius Bar at Apple to have the device checked.

  • Why do ipods come in many awesome colors and iphones only come in black and white?

    Why do ipods come in many awesome colors and iphones only come in black and white?

    The only answer is because that's what Apple decided.  No one here knows any more than that.
    You should put a case on it anyway so buy one in the color you want.

  • Trade in iphone 5 black 16 gb to iphone 5 white 32 gb?

    I have a iPhone 5 Black, 16 gb. & I want to upgrade it to a iPhone 5 White, 32 gb. How can I do that?

    There is no upgrade option (unless there is one through your carrier, in which case, you would have to find out from them).
    Cheers,

  • The iphone 4g white was thicker than the black one, is this the same for iphone 4s?

    the iphone 4g white was thicker than the black one, is this the same for iphone 4s?

    Just to clarify, there is no such thing as a iPhone 4G.  The previous model was the iPhone 4, and the new one is the iPhone 4S.  Apple is being careful not to use the term 4G due to the misuse of the term.  Carriers are using the term regularly and Apple may have to start using the term to let consumers know that the new phone is as fast or faster than the phones already on the market using "4G or LTE".  The IPhone 4S is capable of download speeds up to 14.4 Mbps, which is what the carriers are calling "4G LTE", but in actuality 4G is download speeds of 100 Mbps which isn't availible at this time.  Oh, to answer your question, diesel is correct, the phones are identical except for color.

  • When I first downloaded to 7.1, it made my keyboard black with white letters. Very distinct. Now, it's somehow back to white with black letters. How do I get my black keyboard with white letters back ? iPhone 5S

    You changed the proper preference, but you don't need to relaunch iTunes. You do, however, need to click the blue OK button at the bottom right of the preferences window. The change will happen then.

    Try doing a hard reset - by holding the 'Power' button on the top and the 'Home' button simultaneously!
