    I bought a black BlackBerry z30 instead of white because I saw the itsmejc video on YouTube saying that the glass weave is damn soft to touch. I saw the white one on Google and was wondering if the white one felt the same. The black one initially felt amazing in hand but now when I rub it on the face like jc in his video...its not the same.

    The white doesn't have the same finish
    No white BlackBerry ever did (Bold 9900, Q10, Z30)
    Well obviously with use the back of the phone might lose its smoothness. Pretty normal.

    Haw...a couple amusing posts from you on the Z30.

    I have a black Z30 and my wife has a white one. Haven't rubbed either of them on my face, just haven't felt the urge. But the carbon fiber weave (fake, but looks convincing) of the black Z30 is "softer" and has a very slight grippy feeling to it. The white Z30 is definitely more of a plastic feel, though it has a very fine grain matte finish, sort of like smooth chalk.

    I can say the rear cover on the white Z30 seems more fragile. My wife cracked hers just removing the TPU case a couple times to clean it. This is pretty surprising to me as the cover is way more difficult to actually remove from the phone vs. the black one, so I don't know how the TPU case was able to snag it so well.

    I have the white one and in my opinion the black one is way better. Feels better you can hold onto it better and I feel like it's more durable.

    The black one feels nicer and for some reason also feels thinner.

    Of course they are both the same thickness however.

    The material on the white is nice no doubt, but the black is much nicer.

    I prefer the finish on the black z30. Nicer touch and easier to grip in my opinion.

    Edit: I had both.

    Bought both black and white. Gave white one to my girlfriend. The white one looks nice, but the hard plastic is more slippery than the glass weave black one. A clear gel skin on it solved that problem. Also some minor bugs were reported to me about the white one, but I think that it is user error. Given the choice, I would recommend the black one.

    I had the white Z30 before upgrading to a black passport. Sure the white wasn't as soft, but it sure as hell loomed better imo. It also felt pretty unique compared to other devices.

    I would love the white one even more if it was all white. I don't like the silver chin and frame.
