I have sat down a couple of times and thought of why white phones should cost more than black phones of the same brand and model. I haven't come up with any logical conclusion so I decided to write a post on it and seek people's opinion on this Issue. Lets take Iphone 4s as case study:



These two phones, have the same storage capacities, same specifications, same thickness and size yet the white is more expensive than the black. So i ask again why is the white more expensive than the black? why is blackberry bold 5 white sold for 72 thousand naira and the white sold for 75 thousand naira? why is white iphone 4s sold for $99 and black iphone 4s sold for $95? The list of other white phones that cost much more their the black ones are endless. There is only one reason i can find here and that is racism. It is only because the producers of these phones who are whites feel that anything that is white is superior and therefore should be more expensive than the black which they consider inferior even though both phones have the same specifications and capabilities. Black phones of any particular phone model is released into the market earlier than the white ones. Why should we continue to support this and buy white phones that are not even better than the black ones in terms of the specification of any phone model. We are fighting against racism yet we promote it without knowing it. My opinion is phones of the same model should be of the same price, irrespective of the phone color. What is your take on this?

Racism ofcourse! Can U̶̲̥̅̊ also tell me why U always wash Ūя̲̅ with cloths separate from d other colours! we attach so much 2 white! We can only see white Angel not black.

Dear OP,
You probably came to that conclusion because, unfortunately, you are the very thing you hate. People who come to ridiculous conclusions like this and insist on making everything race related are the true racists of our time. It's a very sad time to be alive. Hopefully one day we can stop seeing people as being black or white and just as being people. But that isn't going to happen with people like you around. Just because more people buy white phones does not mean that companies are being racist. Companies are responding to the statistics of their sales. If they sold more black phones than any other color then they would make black phones more expensive. It is not race related at all.

Just imagine comments up there apart from the guy above me!!!!!

Not all, black blackberry fones are mostly always expensive than the white and also most manufacturers doesn't produce plenty white fones compared to the black fones that's why

Whites are probably richer than black,maybe its because they can afford it in their country and probably pay installmentally,meanwhile its not totally allowed here because person fit run with iPhone 7 to village
