Black, White…or Pink Nokia N97?
Whilst googling for “white commisure” (I have a neuroanatomy exam coming up), my ever wandering mind darted to thinking about what colour N97 I might get in June (if all three options were available).
[from tamoggemon.com and symbian-freak.com; it maybe the lighting, but this looks 1. just too "in your face", 2. Pink]
Ruling out pink immediately, I’m left with either black or white; neither of which are strictly colours, and the black is more dark brown. The first time I saw the “black” N97, I thought it was rather stunning; sleek and not as square. Black always works. When Nokia revamp an Nseries, its almost often also become completely black. Being black – it’s sort of the signature of the Nseries elite. It’s simple, discreet, but looks good too.

The white, I wasn’t immediately too fond with. But it’s also grown on me. A big plus point for some maybe that the black N97 resembles the 5800 too much. In white, it’ll be easier to show off. On its own merit, white looks nice – conforms with the whole white plastic = fantastic, e.g.. iPod/Wii/DS Lite.

Personally, I prefer the black N97. In all angles it looks great. The white looks cheap in some shots – you’ve got to get the reflections off the ‘chrome’ rim perfect. But to each their own; a lot will love the white, and even the Pink (*cough* *girls**cough)
Which colour do you prefer? Or maybe another colour?

I think that the pink pictures are from the N97 that they sent for FCC approval. They propably just coloured it different so that it wouldn’t get in the wrong hands or something.
Dang! I’m going to buy the n97 but I don’t know which color. At first I was going with the black because I always prefered black mobile phones and also because the store didn’t had the white one. Now the white version has appeared at the Phone House store and even cheaper than in the other store. What should I do? Help!!
That pink n97 is about as fake as jordan’s tits..
I have the white one. I was gonna get the black at first, but I changed my mind. As they say the black looks better closed and the white looks better open……….the brown?-the European version, to me, only the back looks good. If I had a chance to get a custom one, I’d make the front black, the keyboard white and the back brown. : ) A CON about the white n97′s keyboard is its very easy to get dirty.
i take black , because i own black because evry nokia the shine color always comes first ands then the black version later come , i.g : n70 , n73 , n95 …… , also the black look more beautiful than white if you take a look at it longer .
ich weiss nicht wenn du sagst dass weiss so schnell schmutzig wird dann nehm ich schwarz aber ich werd ein lilla umschutz nehmen
