I've seen several people seeming to prefer the Champagne over the Gray tablet, but to me the gray just seems sexier. What do you all think?
*ugh* I knew I'd do that - If anyone with the power could add a 't' to that 2nd poll option, I'd be very grateful.
Personally I don't think it'll matter as I'll be putting a protective case on it anyway. The color will be more so for the dock that you choose, I would imagine, as that will be visible.
Both colors look good but I prefer the gray.

I wonder. I'm leaning towards grey, but I've seen photos of it at the unveiling where the grey had visible fingerprints. I'm thinking partly down to the darker colour.
I have a glossy black Asus netbook and it is a fingerprint magnet. Maybe it won't be as obvious on a champagne colour finish?
I need to see what they look like in real life before I choose, so far I haven't seen ANY real life photos of both colours aside from the Press shots.
I kinda like the Champagne gold though, it looks like the ASUS U46SV
I like the grey. The champagne reminds me too much of a Honda Accord. And that's a dis on the color, not the car.
I like the champagne gold because the amethyst-grey looks too purple for my tastes. The gold still has the metallic silverish hue and it really gives a premium vibe to the device. I dont normally like gold, I think its an ugly color, but I find the champagne gold tmore attractive than the purple-grey color of the other. I also see alot of people migrating to the darker of the two so I think it will distinguish it from the other transformers. In addition, I agree with the poster above about fingerprints seening tp be less visable. Champange gold also just sounds more classy and sophisticated.
I wish it looked more like Robocop, silver with hues of purple and blue. That'd be awesome.
At first I preferred the grey version but after looking a few more times I am now going for the champagne...
Damn, can't wait till it's out (and in stock/orderable)...
Gray for sure! Only problem is I can't pre order the tablet on amazon because the wont ship it to the Netherlands.... HELP!
I wish the prime was going to be available in the transformer espresso colour. I really liked that.
Not much love for the champagne huh? I'm thinking it will be less fingerprint prone.
Nevermind I'm dumb.
Good picture of them here!

I am guessing left is Grey and right is Champagne? If so, I prefer Grey!
Saw too many pictures of the grey that looked really purple. It might look great in real life, but I played it safe and pre-ordered the champagne
I took the ladies magnet...purple grey
The champagne one looks really good, but it looks a little to much like a MBA.
The last thing I want to hear is every dumbass Apple fan telling me how "Everyone is copying Apple coz Apple is the **** and you should have bought an ipad !"
And Purple is awesome too. Overall such great choices from Asus.
I was prowling the web around to see where I could find a pre-order of the Prime that was actually in Stock. After going to www.tigerdirect.com, I saw they were. I spent awhile looking at the two colors and I chose Champagne. I just think it looks very sleek! However, the Amethyst Gray looks awesome too. Asus did a great job at choosing the colors as they accent the device very well.
Oh, and about 24 hours later I checked my shipment from TG. It said Backordered... Ah, oh well; I'm sure they will get more before the launch.
I had to buy the TF101 dock from TG, and the TF101 tablet from Amazon last time.
I really want to know if everyone is loving the design as much as I am. It is just so damn sleek! I really think the Transformer design is one of the best innovations.

I'm with you. I don't like either of these colors nearly as much as the original TF. I pre-ordered the gray though.
It does not mean anything to me. The best price when I bought mine was at Costco and it was Champaign. Then I ordered the Skinomi Black Carbon skin for both the tablet and dock and it protects it and looks like I want it to look.

I forgot to mention, you have to select the colored ones to show the discounted price. By default, it shows the black and black for 29.99. If you select the other colors, it will show you the sale price of 12.99
Thank you! Just ordered two of them!
I've had my case mate case for about 3rd months and just recently bought another colored gel case. It has definitely protected my Nexus One in all its falls. Definitely worth the money.

Are they still on sale? I'm order one after work..I need to protect this phoen dropped and got a little scratch on the corner
Just ordered the black and green one, i wish they had the gray and blue in stock..
Just ordered the Black and Red One.
Thanks for posting this!! I have been looking at this case for about a month or so but always considered $30 to be a little steep for it, but at $13 that seems like almost steal!

thanks to the OP, been wanting to get a good case for my n1 but the original price was a bit expensive. ordered the tough case and the card holder 2days ago and just received them now. the tough case is legitt! but the ID one is kinda .... lol but anyways thanks!
Dang, the colors are just so bright. I could have sworn they once had a grey. I may actually buy the blue and an extra black skin, it ends up only being $23, so still $7 cheaper than buying the black one itself.

That looks awesome! I think mines finally comes in today. Hawaii shipping always sucks
Ive got a black one, these are great cases. Really do a bang up job of protecting the N1.
I got the green/black since they had no more red. Not currently using it since I like the otterbox better. But, it was only $13 so maybe it'll come in handy some day
I'm really feeling the Champagne Gold, but I want to get a consensuses on the Transformer Prime color preference.

One vote for Grey!
Gold. Call me sentimental...
first i wanted grey but now the gold is growing on me. honestly i don't think it matters as long as i'm able to get my hands on one when it's released (pending more info of the lenovo tablet).
Amethst Grey
because im colour blind and the gold looks weird to me
Don't care as long as I get one
The grey looks a bit too purple for me (hence the Amethyst, which for anyone that may not know, is a purple quartz stone: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amethist). EDIT: so I would probably pick the gold. But I'm probably fine with my TF101 for a while yet.
I'd probably have to see them in person, but the Grey looks good to me.
right now im feeling the gold more but I would love to see some more actual shots of the units and not stock photo's of them.
Also anyone else like the non coloured grey that we have seen?? I would probably get that if it was available.
Grey
//10 Char
Pink
(its my favorite color)
I like the amethyst grey. It just looks different than anything else out there. The gold looks too iPad-like.
Then again, I'd really like to see them both in person, it's hard to tell just from photos.
Sent from my x10 running TEAM.
gold because it looks rich ^^
Yeah waiting for a real hand on video (not some rendered 3D model), but right now i'm more toward the amethyste one.
But either is fine for me, both look gorgeous and original, good job Asus.
I'll take one of each and choose depending on what matches my clothing that day.

May be it's the calibration on my monitor but the Champagne Gold one just looks like a brushed aluminium colour.
I probably won't know which one I want until I see them with my own two eyes. Either way I think I'm getting one and the wife is getting the old TF. She actually offered to take the old one off my hands which gave me the OK to buy the new one for myself

As the title says, which color are you going to get from ATT?
White or gray?
This is the first phone where I thought the White actually looked good, but at the same time I love the gray...

My thoughts exactly- it's white for me (just to try it out)
i got the gray simply because dirt/debris is going to show up easier on the white model. i really wanted the white, it's pretty sexy
I love the back of the gray. I think I might have to just pre order the gray.
I got the white. The way I look at is eventually its going to turn grey lol.

More than likely gray. Seems like everyone and their mother has a white smartphone now, especially the iPhone. UGH
I like the looks of both of them. The only thing that gets me is that the Gray looks just like every other Android phone HTC has put out in the last two years. I want my HOX to stand out.

I have never had an Android HTC phone before so I guess I never thought about it like that.
Great input everyone
I think I might have to get the gray mainly because I think the back is sexy and I don't want to have to worry about a white phone getting super dirty.
I much prefer the grey, but I pre-ordered at RadioShack and the scuttlebutt is that they are only getting white. So, white it is.
I went white because it look good and is different.
All of my phones have been black/gray... so im going to try the white. If i dont like it, I'll probably just switch it out at costco.
Grey for me, white phones are defective lol jk
Also, when an isheep looks at your white HOX and tell you that HTC is copying apple...tell them that the G1 was the first white android phone.
Sent from my SGH-I777 using XDA
I went white, I think the detail with the rolled glass edges on the screen really pops in the white model.
I went with white because I wanted something different from all the black/grey phones I have had in the past 9 years. It will be nice to have to something different.
I got a grey one and thought it looked a little ordinary. I got a white one to compare them side-by-side. The white one looks bigger because of the color difference between the body and display and it also looked like it way trying too hard to make a statement. When thinking about which I’d be happier with six months from now I kept the grey one. All just personal opinion.
Very east to clean ...

Hey all!
I'm about to order my Xiaomi Mi4C and I can't decide what color to choose, white or black. I'm usually going with black on all my devices, but now that I'm looking at available cases and I see pictures of a white phone with a black case, I think it looks really nice.
Worth mentioning is that only the backside is white, and the front is still black. So when you're looking at the phone from the front, all you see will be black. But if you look at the phone from behind, you'll see 90% black and some nice details of white.
Below are two images that show what I mean:

Hi,
Where did you find this case?
Found it the Nillkin logo was to small.
Just be aware that "black" isn't really black but more of a dark grey colour. I think it looks good and prefer my phones to be unobtrusive but that's my taste - you may differ.
As for the case, I got the official case from xiaomidevice here. It seems to be genuine and has a nice feel, softer than the polycarbonate back of the actual phone, not unlike the N5. It seems genuine and fits the phone perfectly though it does not protect the top or bottom front edges as it snaps on. This essentially means it's also a Mi 4i cover as it does not have hole specially designed to not cover the IR blaster.
Hope that helps!

Thanks a lot for your information! Ok, I see. Do you mind uploading a photo or two of your phone with the case on? I would greatly appreciate it. All photos I can find is with a white phone, so it would be interesting to see how it looks like with the "black/dark gray" phone and a black case.
I bought a white one because of the same picture ha, the black case fits really well with the white accents .
Also like wingsfortheirsmiles mentioned the mi4c black is more grey than black. If you're planning on using case most of the time I would go with a white phone and a black case
edit:
Here's a pic i found of the black phone with the black case

Haha @kevinnol, what a coincidence Yea, I will probably use a case most of the time. Thanks for your input and for finding that photo
Thanks @wingsfortheirsmiles for uploading photos of your phone! To be honest, it looks really nice and clean with the "black" phone as well. Uh... I might as well just flip a coin to decide what color to take
Considering I have a black phone right now, and most of my other stuff is black, it might be nice with a change.

I ordered Midnight Black from T-mobile last night. What color did you order?
Orchid Grey S8 via TMo on Twitter this morning.
Midnight Black...
the black is the best, but it catches finger prints like hell....don't know yet...i have to see them in real life to choose
Midnight Black, not that I'll get to see it much when in a case. My last 3 phones have been Gold and I'm so fed up with it. It'll make a nice change.
I chose black but was tempted by the grey. I just didn't like how it looked purple from some angles.

I went with black on Sprint. I wanted the coral blue but they only have black,grey and silver(I think it was) available. It will be covered with a Batman case anyway so I guess the color isn't really an issue.
I wanted Coral Blue, so I didn't order anything. First I want to see the other colors in person, if it's anything like the Note 7 the pictures will not do the colors justice.

That's very true. I almost immediately had buyer's remorse when I saw the blue in person... BUT with that said I always fall back to wishing I had black.
Went with black, it was a pita to find cases that matched my s7 titanium.
I don't use cases and my hands get sweaty in the summer so I didn't want black. Silver looks kinda plain. So I get Grey.
I went with black, I wanted the silver but I didn't like how the front bezels were black and not silver all around.

You won't see the coral blue anyway because if you know what is good for you, you will use a case and you won't see anything but black color. Lame.

Well there are such a thing as clear cases. But me, I never use case and I've never broken a phone either. Some of us just aren't that clumsy (or like me-super clumsy but somehow manage to always save the phone from damage).

I get why the front of all colors is black - to hide the gazillion sensors and make the glass look even more infinite. But that means all but the black phones are two-tone. Purple/Black, Blue/Black, etc. My first Note7 was black and I ordered it because I liked the monochromatic look. My second Note7 was Blue Coral and I missed the black one after a couple of weeks of use. Samsung took care of my remorse by taking my phone away completely. I went with the S8+ in black to again get back to the monochromatic look. The "gotcha" with such a dark color is that the hairline scratches on the glass back accumulated over time will be much more noticeable than with lighter colors.
