A lot of cool kids are getting their iPhone 5s at the moment. I got mine (64gb) on Monday from Digicape and G-Man got his yesterday (his first iPhone since the 3). We both went for the white over the black. This is why:

1) The black iPhone 5 is highly susceptible to scuff and scratches and will wear much faster. This has been widely publicised on the internet.

2) The black iPhone 5 can be mistaken for an LG or HTC phone. Do you want that kind of public emboerrissment?

3) The white iPhone5 has silver sides, which have an incredibly sexy shine on the top and bottom edges of those side strips. Whereas the black iPhone 5 has a black strip along the side with zero sexiness.

4) The back of the white iPhone 5 makes a mockery of the back of the black iPhone 5.

5) White says Apple. Look at the rest of their products – it’s white and silver. The keyboard. The mouse. 

6) The white just ‘pops.’ The black lacks that ‘wow’ factor.

So there you have it.

Make sure you get in touch with Digicape to get your new iPhone 5. Make sure you get a minimum of 32Gb. That’s where we are now – photos, music etc – all on your phone.
