What colour Hero?

I have the brown one. The only other choice of colour for me was the PINK one, which, in my opinion, is an awful shade. I like the brown one a lot. Given the option I probably wouldn've gotten the graphite one though. Def not the white one, I dislike white gadgets for some reason.
 
Another vote for the white. It's the only one with the teflon coating (those fried eggs just slide off) and looks more futuristic - if apple were designing a new iPhone look it would copy the white Hero :)
 
Got a black and graphite one, the missus has a pink one. Friend at work has the white one and it looks pants in comparison. Too "sheep-following-the-crowd"ish if you know what I mean :p

It is only the white version that has coating on the screen?

The teflon coating is on the back to try and keep it clean. The screen is the same on all heros.
 
Thanks.

I am in love with this phone. Would buy it right now if I didn't have the problem about people saying that You Tube videos on Iphone are in better quality.

I am confused.
 
I returned my white Hero today and have asked for a brown one.
The white Hero gets too dirty along the bottom face where the buttons are...especially if you keep it in the official HTC starter pack case.

How do they mean? The youtube app on the Hero is good. I'll grab one of my iphone owning friends and compare. Actuallly I might do a side by side comparison on a lot of things, and blog about it, who knows.
 
I have the brown one which I really love - felt the graphite one was a bit dull and I've had pink phones in the past and been really bored with them after a couple of months, plus I thought that pink was a bit of a sickly salmon colour. Quite liked the white but felt it'd get far too grubby and look a bit gross after a while so went with the more practical brown which I've had for a while now, and I'm still pleased with my choice :)

Black looks good. The T-Mobile version in the UK is black.

As are the offline/sim-free HTC branded one, like mine... looks sexy!

As for Youtube videos... it depends on the video. If you select the option to watch in high quality mode its better than the iPhone in some cases. All depends on the source.

I've never seen a graphite one offered sim-free in the UK...if I had I would have bought one.

Same here! Still, the brown one has grown one me. Plus it matches my camera, so, bonus. I REALLY dislike the pink one, it's not my favourite colour at the best of times, but that is a truly horrible shade.
 
I think the brown and black ones would match the UI better, since sense is darker coloured. But that's just what I'd think, I dunno.
