Which colour Sola do you have? Are you happy with it? I found this regarding the GO:
http://www.techradar.com/reviews/phones/mobile-phones/sony-xperia-go-1088800/review
which warns about the white version: "Although visually impressive when removed from the box, for a handset that is supposed to live up to all that life can throw at it, the white Sony Xperia Go shows sign of wear, tear and general day-to-day grotty use all too quickly."
IYes, that's the white in the GO but I wonder is it the same for the white Sola? I think it was the same review that said the white Go had peeling paint after just a little use, I hope it's not the same for the Sola. I'm keen to get away from black and the white looks incredible.
Whichever Sola you have, does it keep clean? Any other visual issues?

I want to buy one of this phones, but i really dont know what color i have to chose.
For me, both colors are great but what do u think, should i buy it in black or white??
Sorry for my bad english
BLACK!
( Since I'm less than eight posts I cannot post link but can PM it if you want )
In the forum Swedroid a poster who bought the white one found that the keyboard has horrible contrast, such that the buttons were often unreadable unless the phone is angled. Because of this he also regrets that he bought the white instead not the black version of the Xperia Mini Pro.
Another member replies that he upgraded from an X10 (which has a silver keyboard) to a black Xperia Mini Pro that there is a large improvement in contrast and readability on the buttons.
So if you want to be able to read the keyboard a black one should be the better choice. If you want a fancy color on the back you can swap, I myself have bought a black one but I'm waiting to get myself a pink cover
btw your english is fine =)
+1 READ MY LIPS BLACKKKKKK AND MIX THE BACK
I had the black then white iPhone and i thought to myself later black looks better than white over longer period.
so this time i bought black and don't regret it at all. also i want to have a white back when it becomes cheap enough. that turquoise isn't really bad, i would love royal blue aftermarket one tho.
not that white doesn't look good but i like to keep it old school
Yeah at night can see the blue symbol buttons but not the primary ones on white - useless. Get to memorise them pretty quick but boggles the mind how they could design an invisible keypad.

Go for black. I just bought the black one.
I really don't like seeing fingerprints, so I pick white no contest. I don't fingerprint a lot my hands always clean but being a human can't help it. So good luck with wiping the black units.
Thanks people, i will buy the black color .
Nobody mentioned one of the main difference??
The white (and all other colors) are slippery bright, the black is totally different material, a little bit like rubber providing a very good grip!
Really, thats so nice
Damn would have ordered black if I'd known would have a back like my old x10 mini pro.

Mines in white, to my eyes it looks much nicer than the black version. Anyway I wanted a change from always having black phones.

Definitly black. I have the black One and i love it. Its just awesome!
Send from my Sony Ericsson Xperia mini pro.. (that is indeed the new One..)
White.
Always been a fan of white phones. Although I wish we had the Blue Gradient from the Neo...
Black. I was mistakenly sent the white one and I had a few hours to play with it before I sent it back. It's a beautiful phone, but the backlighting on the keys is horrible... In dim light, the keys are practically unreadable. I got the black one yesterday, and I'm much happier with it.

But u have electrostatic problem?
First time to have a white phone. It looks nice. Very elegant. People compliment me on it and can't believe that it's a cheap phone.
go for black color~ +1 black~looks elegant
I just loved the white one at first sight
Black.
Sucks that the white one has a invisible keyboard, I'd have thought they'd notice that.
Hello all,
Really excited about the Xperia S, even though I'm still on the Arc S.
Just putting together a poll to see which one everyone thinks is better looking/planning on getting.
Not sure why this time, but I'm seriously considering the white Xperia S. Looks amazing. Never had a white phone before though but I'm really liking the anti stain coating.
I'm going for the white colour one cause it looks awesome with the black display and then the transparent element then there's the white stripe at the bottom with the xperia logo and the white colour stripe. that looks so awesome, you should go for the white colour.
Black just perfect

I've had a White HTC Hero for almost 2 years, so i'm going for a black phone now
seriously black just looks awesome on this phone
black for sure, as white looks girlish
I've always had black phones. My girlfriend have a Nexus S white and it's look very nice. Maybe this time i will try an Xperia s white.
All colors are good, as long as they are black
I think the white more attractive, but bother colors are good looking ))
P.S. XPS is already available for sale? Where?
I originally was after the white one as it looks better than the black imo, looks really nice. However after going to phones 4 u today and seeing both models9dummy models0 i notice that the white one actually attracts dirt alot not from me but from other people that were already looking at the dummy model and after seeing the videos about how the cover is dirt resistant i tried to rub it off only made matters worse actually the colur started turning to cream and on the edges of the phone i could clearly see that it looked worn out, so the white one is out of the question for me which is a shame as i was looking forward to getting that one. Black it will be though
At first i wanted the white one, but after i gave it some thoughts i preferred the black one as the contrast with the transparent bar is way better!
It's black for me.
just prefer it and love the way it looks.
That's the colour ive pre-ordered.
Looks-wise i definitely prefer the white one. But I fear that the white body will look worn out soon and lose all it's sexiness.

I was thinking about the white one, as I never had a white phone before, and my partner and I both ordered a Xperia S and didn't want to mix up the phones all the time :/.
But I went for black, because well...the black is rather nice, and it won't get noticeably dirty that easily.We just need to make sure to have seperate backgrounds or a hard case on one of the phones xD
For this phone in particular I found the black much nicer.
I have since I clapped eyes on this phone always been attracted to the white version. I have had many black phones over the years, so a white handset will be a welcome change.
After seeing the white dummy model in phones 4 u, it put me right off!
just seeing the dirt on it and whe you rub it the colour was changing.
I first thought I would get the white version, but after seeing some videos, the black version does look nice, in a 2001-monolith kind of way, and the transparent bar really shines in all this blackness.
Also it would color-match my old SE K800i
I just want a different White, more fashionable.
Oh，80% of my friends chose the white version . white looks sharp and shiny. but black outstanding more the transparent bar design.
Hi folks,
Just bought this on contract,vbut not sure what to think. Touch screen is amazing, though ICS was out in the UK for this?
Other thing is the screen, if I turn the device, there is some severe LCD bleed through under the black bezel, clearly not normal, its on the left and right.
Seems like a good cause to return the device, I have 14 dayscif im not happy with it, is the Xperia P better?
Thanks guys!
Xperia P has metallic cover, more storage and more RAM. I like so much it, but the U's multicolor Led is fantastic, i can't leave it. <3
To describe the issue better, its a complete line of dead pixels under the black bezel.
Would like the Xperia P, wanted more RAM.
No ICS for my UK Xperia U?
In a few days
ICS for UK U will arrive in a few days.
Edit: ops, outspeeded by Ultracity

Those aint dead pixels. The screen lights are located there thus it looks like that. Completely normal.
Edit: i'd suggest you to go for the P though, ICS on the U isn't how it should be at the moment and the RAM, oh the RAM! Go for the P.
Tapatalked !
Hanks for clearing thwt up, even if its normal im not impressed,ci hope its reasonable grounds for a contract cancellation!
I have tried and I have searched for over 2months now for white balance display calibration software for the xperia z. I installed CM on my xperia z and the very first thing I noticed was my screen was back to the distasteful yellowish white color it had before I set up the white balance. I'm almost becoming a Dev because I really like cm but I couldn't stand using it for more than a day because of the lack of the display calibration software. Are you kidding me? is no one interested in doing
this? this to me is one of the most important setting on
the xperia z. any ROM that doesn't have this is almost
useless to me. I just can't stand the yellow white hue.
Damn man I'm looking for the same thing and I noticed that your post is more than half a year old. Still no solution? I've also been searching for white balance but still no outcome. Really like to use CM mod but can't stand the yellow hue at all!
Hi all
I'm considering picking up the white version of the tablet, but note that the keyboard is only sold in black. I prefer the white tablet because my Xperia Z2 phone is also white, and because when using it outdoors, a white tablet is less likely to overheat because it reflects most of the heat from sunlight, rather than absorbing it as a black tablet would.
My concern, though, is that the white tablet and black keyboard together will look terrible, and I can't find a single photo in this configuration. Hence, I'd really like to see photos if you folks happen to find one, or if you buy this combination yourselves!
Thanks!
Belay that, I just found a video of this combination from a Japanese site:

Answer is, it looks pretty funky together...
Agreed.
