iPad Which Color iPad did you choose? Silver or Space Gray?

[GoingDark]

I prefer the silver back, but the black face, so this was a tough decision for me.

Ultimately I went with Space Grey for my rMini. The white front is a little too feminine for me, especially on a small device like the rMini.

Space Grey...white bezel distracts from the screen too much.

Ditto. I bought a silver/white iPhone 5 because it's less prone to nicks and scratches. I prefer a black bezel. I feel that Space gray and an iPad in general is less prone to damage than a Slate phone.

It's not less prone.. it's less noticeable.

Space Grey Air LTE here, I don't like white devices, though apples don't look too bad in white, but I prefer black around my screen.

iPad Mini Retina: White or Black, why?

Which color did you get and why?

 

[joeshmo2010]

I got white because I like the way it looks with my white/black speck candyshell grip case. I like that it shows less fingerprints because of the white bezel. IMO, it's very sleek in white.

Space grey. Because I liked it more than the other one.

Black (aka space gray). I think it the screen just looks better with the black background. I'm getting a gold/white 5S at work, though, so my opinion might change.

Yeah I think the white just looks great with ios 7

We just had this thread, except last time it was about the ipad in general, rather than specifically the retina mini.

Oh well, I chose the silver retina mini because I thought it would look better with ios 7.

this thread is for ipad mini owners only.

The one I liked more because I liked it more.

iPad Mini Retina: White or Black, why?

Black.. Simply because My 1:st gen Mini is white.

 

[wrinkster22]

White because everything else I have is black. Decided to try something new and I really like it

Silver. Space Grey looks like it will show scratches a lot more than silver

 

[hawon]

White. Black back seems like it will show scratches easily.

 

[bambooshots]

Space Gray. Because it's a personal decision.

Went with the Space Grey because everything else I have is black. Im actually very happy with the space gray and like it more than the slate on my iphone 5.

I'm the opposite. Like the white front, but greatly prefer the space gray. Decision ultimately was made for me, they only had the model I wanted in black.

Definitely black for me, i dislike white screen iPads, black for me is a lot more comfortable and easier on my eyes and to me just looks better in my opinion
