[Q] HTC Desire HD (Slate Grey color)?? - Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Can anyone point me to any link showing a slate grey HTC Desire HD? I ordered one and I haven't receive it yet. While waiting, I took the liberty of searching it online but I can only find either Black or Mocha Brown color.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Many Thanks!!

Slate Grey i'ts probably the same color as Black/Mocha Brown. May shop wrong name of color.
I found on ebay this:
http://cgi.ebay.com/HTC-Desire-HD-U...0515578135?pt=Cell_Phones&hash=item43a413ed17

I came across this one but the picture is still Black and not the Slate Grey as describe. I was wondering if anyone has seen (even in picture) an actual colored grey HTC Desire HD.
Thanks!

i finally found it! it looks nice! LOL

Isn't that just the prototype?

Catch it in the correct lighting and screw with the colour balance (the hands not quite right) and mine looks not a million miles from that, but yeah from the date (and the writing on the back) I would assume that's a prototype

Where do you actually buy a non-Mocha one from? I'd much rather buy a black one, but I can't find them anywhere... I'm pretty sure they're not even producing them.

Anyone have pictures of the graphite model?

In the interest of those getting their desire from mobilephonesdirect I thought it would be useful if someone can post a picture of the graphite model so we know what it looks like (the only sell the graphite option)
thanks
here are both colors:
front
back
I spoke to mobilephonesdirect again today and they are saying that what they are classing as Graphite is the one shown on their website.
Which is what everyone else is calling brown.
While on the phone to them they said they had called HTC and they were told that they are NOT getting the silver one. (which is opposite to what they told me last week)
I think that they've just decided to call the brown one graphite to confuse everyone
The guy at customer support told me that if the phone I receive is not the same colour as the one shown on the website that I can return it.
TBH I don't think they even know
I'm the one who took the photos yesterday.
You're right about the color, I also think the color is more black then brown. If you watch it in daylight you can see a brown tint (the photos are taken under quite yellow fluorescent lamps).
By the way, the silver is not as shiny as it looks.
How come this silver color seems to be enigmatic? How come I don't see it at the usual retailers that will be offering the Desire? HTC didn't even make an official mention of it. Is it some kind of exclusive/special edition or what?
I thinks it's exclusive to some retailers, like PDAShop.be, they seem to offer the silver one exclusively.

On your photos, there are definitely docking pins on the bottom of the phones.
Do you know if the final version will have them?
HTC didn't even mention them... and i'm wondering about the different versions...
robertwebbe wrote on flicker that the silver model will be BelCompany exclusive!
Where do i preorder that if i need shipping to germany?
The silver model will only be exclusive for the dutch retail.
I've taken two mores pictures:

About the docking pins; I've got different answers from HTC. One said the will be gone in the final model while another person says they wil stay. We will see.
nooooo i wanted the silver version, let's see if they take it to italy too.
Is graphite different to silver so?
mobilephonesdirect have told me they will be selling graphite sets and that the brown on their website is not the handset i would receive if i preordered.
I assumed by graphite they meant silver - but if robertwebbe is correct and silver is exclusive to another retailer, then graphite may be another colour we haven't seen yet?

There is another version that is clearly black, so calling the brown one black would be confusing, even though it does look more black than brown.

SGP ULTRA SLIDER.... i sooo want one lol

hey i live the uk and i going to get the sgs i9000 and i saw this and i thought u lot might love this i thought i share the love lol
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lXMqxAgKnA4
That's awesome! I didn't even know a slider case was available for the SGS already. Def worth looking into. Just wish it didn't have the dvt antenna cutout.
Nice, i really like it... when is this going to be available? i checked in www.sgpstore.com and it's not there
I already contacted SGP about getting Galaxy S cases in the US. They simply said the don't sell them anywhere here.
Man I normally don't like cases, but I kinda like that one.
It looks ok. but very heavy. And, Ive to see anything that protects the LCD.

if you scroll down, you will see it.
They also have some nice SGP cases. I heard they made good screen protectors as well. It's only ~$17.

Thanks Frescokiiid!
I wanted the white one, but now im undecided between Black and White what do you guys think?
I just ordered a black one. Think it keeps the phone closest to the original look.

Awesome find Frescokiiid! I look forward to a review of the case from whoever gets one first.
I already ordered three other covers, but this is the kind I was waiting for.
i just put the order through, i ended up ordering the black one. ill be updating the status of my order since it looks like a British site and will be a week or two before i get it specially since i went the cheap route and got the 3 dollar shipping lol.

i have the brown one -,-
wish i knew about the black one before purchase
all i ever saw in shops was the brown one (even on the internet - i have seen a few shots of the black one but i thought it was with some cover or something) so i assumed they only come in brown color :F
white one looks like it shows dirt/sweat after 5sec
The black one is exclusive to Orange in the UK, not sure if its available in other countries or not.
The white looks nice but looks like it'll soon look dirty though

I got a silver one. Absolutely love it. Also because it's more rare. Few people have the Silver version.
Silver one just looks cheap, compared to brown one. The high contrast of the Amoled screen just comes out more prominent on the brown one. I was a bit worried when ordering, but i still think the brown one is the prettiest.

I wonder if anyone else notice this. The aluminum trim around the screen on my brown desire change colour depends on sunlight. Sometime it looks like brown, light blue, and dark grey.

Totally agree with all if this. IMHO, all other colours just don't cut it. I love my brownish Desire, wouldn't trade it for any other colour.

I originally went looking all over the place for the silver one, but eventually settled for the brown one as that one was easier to get my hands on a while back. Kind of happy with the decision, in pictures the brown one is horrible to look at, but if you hold it in your hand and/or hold a silver one next to it, the silver one looks like crap. Brown does work, just not in the pictures.
The white one also looks good in the pictures, but I wonder what it'll end up looking like once you actually hold it in your hands and work with it.

[Q] White or Grey

I have sent back a few white one X phones back to Amazon, who have stopped selling the whites now.. Eat that HTC, Hopefully you will listen now a main supplier has stopped selling it. lmao
I have ordered my first grey from them, are the greys proving to be better?
It is question but i am looking for opinions as well.
Cheers
I have grey and i have no problems with it...

From what i've seen in the shops i'd say the white looks much better, although i haven't used it at home yet (being delivered). I've ordered a slim clear case to keep it clean without sacrificing the looks.
What don't you like about the white one?

I liked the white one x, but both handsets i received had issues. So i thought the grey might have less issues. Hence the question
wait for newer batch.

The colour shouldn't make a difference, unless they're manufactured by different people/in different places (no idea if they are). Sounds like you would prefer a working white model over a working grey one? Personally, I would have kept trying to get a working white one because there's no guarantee that a grey one would work better.
I have the white one, no problems apart from Storage disappearing, 1gb at a time lol. I've seen loads of Grey One X's with fading / discolouration problems on the back of the case.
I bought my grey one while raising one eyebrow, rubbing my belly with my left hand and hopping one knee and have had no faults.
Do we really think that colour has anything to do with it? Really?

Some people would buy the grey one thinking all the white ones have problems as they were released after the whites in certain countries, they would think it wouldn't have certain bugs and problems....I got another white one and this one has no flaws to the perfect detail

Already newer batches are out and white seems to be good because grey will de colour soon. Protect your phone with skin. I have white and no issues so far.

[Q] [Urgent Suggestion Req.] One X White or Black

Hi everyone,
I am getting good deals on both a white and black [not the grayish one] one X, need to decide today which one to buy. I have seen that the white version is more common, also in reviews it kind of stands out as well. I want to ask your opinion on which one is better ie,
-more elegant looks wise, when held in hand etc
-gets dirty more easily, more easy to clean, would proove to be more resistant to scratches [atleast appearance wise] overall
Help me out here!

Someone just made me realize that there is not "black" version of the one x, just the grayish one. So its the grayish one that you prefer over white then? The problem is that i haven't held both of them side by side, so it keeps crossing my mind that the white one probably looks better! lol
I had the white and hated it. Looked crap imo. Got the grey and love it. Looks smart. Best bet is look in the shops to compare. I found the white showed grime more
It's all personal preference though dude look at them in real life not just pics.
Lol I say grey

Yeah well, i've decided to get the gray one ..So thanks for all the suggestions ppl!
