This is such a hard decision... I had a black iPhone 3G, and I really liked it. But now that I'm upgrading, I really want the 3GS in white. Thanks for the video- it helped a lot in determining which would fair better in my lifestyle!
thanks! was going to choose the black but after this review and some research, white wins...... getting my iphone 3gs white 16gb this sunday! cant wait
Very nice video, my congrats. I have the black, a friend has the white. I love both of them. When I preordered mine, i had never seen a white one in person, so i was pretty confident. Now it'd be a super hard choice.
they both smudge up the same amount. However, you can see it better on the black one due to the black colour absorbing all light, and the white colour reflecting light. In other words, you see smudges on black easier than white because your fingerprint is a lighter colour, making it more visible on a darker background.
I had every iPhone up to date and I half to say the white one looks nice and he is right about the near lack of smudging and scratches but I had all the black of coarse cause of the masculine factor, I have the iPhone 4 now I didn't see a point in getting the 4s yet, but good video dude
I agree! I bought the black iPhone 3G S because they didn't have any white ones, but I am taking my black one next week simply because the black gets extremely greasy after holding it in you hand and you can't see anything on the black one. Good Call. Both are beautiful, nod goes to white if you are a scratch/smudge nazi like myself.
There is also another "minus" for white one's ==> after a while, you get "yellow stripes" on the back, because of the battery getting too hot. It's only issue with 3gs so far, as I've heard.
Hey I really liked your video. But I think that is mostly cause you have a nice voice not like the onther videos I have seen. I would just like to tell those guys o stop talking. But, you told me exactly what I needed to know about the iphone in white. I have been debating if the white one is more resistant to scratches. So thanks I am definitely going to get the white one.
the white looks funny with the back front, chrome sides, and white back, vs. all black and chrome. i have the black and like it better, just put a clear film case to prevent scratches
You can see the scratches on the black one more because it's more noticeable than the white one. The white one has the same chance to get scratched as the black one... Right?
I got a black 3GS and I think it looks kinda better than the white one. But not by much. The white iPhone looks great too so it was not an easy choise when I bought it.
I have had the black and it does scratch up pretty bad on it's back but I would love it if an upgrade option was an aluminum case like the back of the I pad.
Hey thanks for the comparison, made it easier for me to chose...i love black but I guess white won't show signs of wear as much and will be different cause most ppl have the black one ; -)
thanks so much!:)i'm gonna get a white one later...this really helped me decide...precisely why i was browsing through youtube and looking at reviews...:)thanks!!!:)
I'm android user for 3 years from galaxy to htc one x, and I have never use any iphone product, but why I love 3gs that something I can't explain .... so I decide to buy it..... I can't stop myself more.......
why you prefer the iphone 3gs than the 4s??? can u tell me please I'm thinkin buy a new phone but i don't decide if will buy iphone 5 or 4 ... thanks & sorry for my englishi speak french :S thanks
They probably smudge and scratch just as easy but the white doesn't show it as much i personally chose the black 32GB 3Gs and i love it i have a rebel case and that personally works for me
Actually, this is pretty weird, but I noticed that the White iPhone overall has a better build quality. Call me insane, but the back on the white one feels so much smoother, and the screen glass feels smoother too. And, the most obnoxious this is that the screen on the White one is a better. The colors are more vibrant and the blacks are deeper.
I don't know if this has been said, but both iPhones get scratched and smugged equally the same. The black iPhone just shows them more. White conceals them. Illusions.
Thank you! I'm mulling over which one I should get. Right now it's between a white 16gb 3gs or a black 32gb 3gs. Seeing them side by side makes me skew toward the white and it would match my macbook.
I think they both scratch the same. It's the visiblity of the scratches that is different imo. I have the black for a more professional look for work although, I do like the white also. I wish the back was interchangeable. 5 stars.
I have an opinion question for you. Please reply? :) my parents are going to buy me an iPhone 3GS (I already know I'm getting the black) and they gave me two choices. To get an 8GB tomorrow, or get an 16GB in a week. I've been waiting a really long time to get one and I already have a iPod touch (8GB). What do you recommend I do?
With so many cases existing...don't struggle too much, or be sad if you only got the black (8gb) when you wanted white...the're not that expensive and some are quite fun...and also better to scratch a case then the iPhone itself.
Not really. You've heard wrong. Mine is white 32GB. It's working perfectly. It only gets warm when I use memory like playing data consuming games and so on. It doesn't get so hot till it's painful to hold it in the hand.
me too but not me too coolbears right
SUP DUDE
GET THAT CRUNCH
Sup
I’m here in 2018 wishing you still made these videos.
Im here in 2019 thinking I might just come back :)
This is such a hard decision... I had a black iPhone 3G, and I really liked it. But now that I'm upgrading, I really want the 3GS in white. Thanks for the video- it helped a lot in determining which would fair better in my lifestyle!
i love the white. im just now seeing this video and i got my iPhone 3GS in white yesturday and im loving it like a whole bunch
personally i think ill go for the white, it looks a bit nicer
I'm getting my white one tomorrow i've been on the wanting list for a good month I'm so happy.
Nice! I really like how you switched up the Black/White cloth to contrast with the phone.
had my black a coupla weeks now, ur vid confirmed that I made the right choice :D
I have a black 3GS I bought in may, I love it ! But I will admit the white one is really sharp looking !
thanks! was going to choose the black but after this review and some research, white wins......

Im getting my white iPhone tomorrow! I cant wait :D
well done, can u do more white iphone 3g reviews, and talk about new iphones this year, ur ratings will sky rocket.
Very nice video, my congrats.
I have the black, a friend has the white. I love both of them.
When I preordered mine, i had never seen a white one in person, so i was pretty confident.
Now it'd be a super hard choice.
Thank you. I've been trying to decide between the white & black iphone 3GS.
they both smudge up the same amount.
However, you can see it better on the black one due to the black colour absorbing all light, and the white colour reflecting light.
In other words, you see smudges on black easier than white because your fingerprint is a lighter colour, making it more visible on a darker background.
Your presentation is awesome, it's easier to understand the differences between the white one and the black one. I think i will get the white one.
my bday is tmrw and im getting this! so excited!!
Hey! Thanks a lot, really helped me chose the white one. Mostly because of that it doesn't smugde up as easily!!
man awsome video!
what kind of video camera did you use?
I had every iPhone up to date and I half to say the white one looks nice and he is right about the near lack of smudging and scratches but I had all the black of coarse cause of the masculine factor, I have the iPhone 4 now I didn't see a point in getting the 4s yet, but good video dude
that thing is sweet... the compass! i recommend white because it stays cleaner and looks sick.
I got one from Ebay $87.00 comming Thrus. So excited!!!!
I will be getting the iPhone 3GS in white this friday! haha Nice video!
I agree! I bought the black iPhone 3G S because they didn't have any white ones, but I am taking my black one next week simply because the black gets extremely greasy after holding it in you hand and you can't see anything on the black one. Good Call. Both are beautiful, nod goes to white if you are a scratch/smudge nazi like myself.
that really helped cuz i always liked the black better but if it scratches more than i think im gonna go with the white
Cool video and definitely a good idea as i am struggling to decide what color to get...thank you
I can't wait for the white iphone 4 to come out!
thank u so much for this vid.
i love the white iPhone
great job!!
There is also another "minus" for white one's ==> after a while, you get "yellow stripes" on the back, because of the battery getting too hot. It's only issue with 3gs so far, as I've heard.
I still have and use my White 3GS 32GB, now for almost 3.5 years, I just buy a new battery and it works perfect.
Wowwwww I haven't heard 5 stars in a minute!! Damn I completely forgot!
I was thinking the same thing !
mario jimenez haha yey man we came a ways for sure
nice video man... precise and concise
what's your opinion this time around with the iPhone 4. I think I'm still getting the black one.
Omg me 2 for my b-day!!! I love itt! I cant wait
good work man thank u for helping us really good work keep it up
The automated captions on this are hilarious.
Hey I really liked your video. But I think that is mostly cause you have a nice voice not like the onther videos I have seen. I would just like to tell those guys o stop talking. But, you told me exactly what I needed to know about the iphone in white. I have been debating if the white one is more resistant to scratches. So thanks I am definitely going to get the white one.
it was a good video... its like the pluses on buying a black or white car... pretty much the same factors
Thanks! As silly as it looks....i was wondering which colour i wanted and now i think i actually want the white one more!....Thanks buddy :)
the white looks funny with the back front, chrome sides, and white back, vs. all black and chrome. i have the black and like it better, just put a clear film case to prevent scratches
You can see the scratches on the black one more because it's more noticeable than the white one. The white one has the same chance to get scratched as the black one... Right?
I got a black 3GS and I think it looks kinda better than the white one. But not by much. The white iPhone looks great too so it was not an easy choise when I bought it.
i was really torn between the black and the white when i got to the store. they only had 1 black one left for 3gs 16 gb. i got it!
I still don't know which one is better... I'll probably buy the white one. Thx for the vid ;)
hey nice vid rob
I have had the black and it does scratch up pretty bad on it's back but I would love it if an upgrade option was an aluminum case like the back of the I pad.
Also some girls like the black one better than white, lol great vid. I'm still not sure which one to get, PLEASE HELP !! WHICH ONE ??
WOW. How does choosing between a white and black iphone turn to this. I would really like to know.
Nice "unboxing-review", i were confused on whether to pick a black or a white, now i know its a white :-)
Hey thanks for the comparison, made it easier for me to chose...i love black but I guess white won't show signs of wear as much and will be different cause most ppl have the black one ; -)
thanks so much!:)i'm gonna get a white one later...this really helped me decide...precisely why i was browsing through youtube and looking at reviews...:)thanks!!!:)
I'm android user for 3 years from galaxy to htc one x, and I have never use any iphone product, but why I love 3gs that something I can't explain .... so I decide to buy it..... I can't stop myself more.......
great spot to be in the only problem you have is which color?
some people just want one
Very good video. Thanks for sharing dude!
im getting a black one. Yay!! mainly because its less expensive. if you don't like the color just get a case
why you prefer the iphone 3gs than the 4s??? can u tell me please I'm thinkin buy a new phone but i don't decide if will buy iphone 5 or 4 ... thanks & sorry for my englishi speak french :S thanks
They probably smudge and scratch just as easy but the white doesn't show it as much i personally chose the black 32GB 3Gs and i love it i have a rebel case and that personally works for me
nice, ive always wondered if there was any other differences between the two :D

The colors are more vibrant and the blacks are deeper.
Awesome im thinking about buying the white iphone 4 Thanks
wait so the main difference is one is black and one is white? Thank god for this video I would have been so lost without this complex review.
Thanks for this :) I think I'll go for the white 3gs 32gb! X
exact situation im in, im getting white 3gs this month
i just bought the new iphone 3gs 16 gb white and i think you right the white one is better then the black
Pretty great review! Thanks!
on my friends white i saw some visible cracks on the vol rocker and also on the top where the sim tray is.
good comparison...helped out alot...
I think that the iphone 3gs is more pretty on the back than the newer models. But the newer models are nice them to.
White is an Apple classic! You can never go wrong with white!
thanks for the review .. but i think the only different is the color .... the scratches are there but it's hard to be seen on the white one ....
I don't know if this has been said, but both iPhones get scratched and smugged equally the same. The black iPhone just shows them more. White conceals them. Illusions.
thank you so much ime going to get the black one next week
Excellent review u helped me in choosing,Thanx a lot 5*
Cool video. Very helpful. Thanks!
Awesome! I want the white one.
still have 3gs white. Love it:)
thanks for the vid !! im getting a white one
Thank you! I'm mulling over which one I should get. Right now it's between a white 16gb 3gs or a black 32gb 3gs. Seeing them side by side makes me skew toward the white and it would match my macbook.

but wouldnt it be a negative if you wanted the black one, since you cant get it in an 8 gb version
i have white and i love it, but some times i see the black one,and think wow that looks nice too
Great video =]
at rogers in canada you can get the 16gb it is 199 and the 32gb for 299 and they both come in white or black
You mention that it costs $199.
Can you post a link from the store that you bought the device?
I'm a girl and I'm using black! Truth is I love white better than black but still black is good!! I give 50% for both! =]
Another down side to the white iPhone is that it gets dirtier easily just from being in your pocket but with the black one you cant see if it is dirty
great advice and information.
Really nice video!:-)
Not really. You've heard wrong. Mine is white 32GB. It's working perfectly. It only gets warm when I use memory like playing data consuming games and so on. It doesn't get so hot till it's painful to hold it in the hand.
The white one doesn't get scratched or smudged any less than the black one. You just can't SEE them.
Even iPhone 8 same box black and white and my favourite is white iPhone 3GS and iPhone 8
thanks 4 the info, i will get the white one
Ok, thx m8!! It's out 31 of july in sweden so I think I will get 32GB white. :D
im pretty sure they wont, considering you have a serial number assigned to the iphone, which specifies what type it is.
Thanks for the vid man, Im getting a white one today but this vid made me sure I wasn't getting a piece of crap phone lol.
@CanCemo And fingerprints are also seeable on the black one
Can you put a personal message on the back of the iPhone like you can the iPod?
i cant believe how much cheaper it is in your country !! is it 199 to buy with contract?? it costs nearly £500 for the 16g here !! (england uk)
