Let's face it. If you're male, anything else than black is just... awkward. Baby blue? No thanks.

The most important thing is to have a genuine one that does not peel IMO. I feel sorry for the poor souls that thought they had a hot polycarbo, only to discover it is cheap recirculated painted plastic.

i'll stick with the N900(s) and go with a 808 PureView as a replacement for the N8's camera ¦-)

So I would say it is pretty snugly.

The only place you can see some white is around the buttons, where there is less cover and is is not as firm as elsewhere. Still trying to find better screenprotector as there are gaps between the case and the currect screenprotector...

Definitely the white one, just got mine yesterday and the glossy/piano finish on it makes it stand out above all of the other matte finished colors. It feels so smooth as well, not like plastic at all. Looks premium like metal and glass.
I was in two minds about getting black or white when I ordered the phone but after seeing it in my hands, I definitely made the right choice. If they offered the black in the same glossy piano finish as the white then I probably would have gone for that instead.
But as it is right now, white wins hands down.

I was very tempted to get the Cyan version, and the White one also looks very nice, but choose the Magenta one in the end. It is such an eye-catcher and really stands out among all the plain black box-phones.
This green one looks pretty good.
