Dark or Light Theme?

[Daakkon]

I use green. The hd7 looks least akward when scrolling/reading things in apps like fuse, etc..

I only use dark because I have dust under my screen which is more visible in the light theme. No screen protector here.

Dark uses less battery and it's gentle on the eyes....so using a dark team.

On an AMOLED screen, dark makes sense. On a non-AMOLED screen, dark doesn't use any less battery, and light looks great.

Yes I do, its pretty normal even with lumia phones. So does with white iphones

Yep, I know. One of the advantages of black is you get this illusion of the screen being a part of the front face of the device, which doesn't exist with the white theme when you get a black border around it. I wish someone would create a seamless white device.

I wish we could do a combination. I like the white theme on the homescreen but prefer the dark theme on the people hub.
I have the Titan and the white/lime combo on the homesceeen looks really good!!!

White/lime is my fave. I might switch back to it soon.

I've been using a dark background with teal accents, but today I switched to a white background with purple accents. Feels like I've got a new phone!

I like using the dark theme with brown. Not sure why. FYI on screen that are AMOLED, When you are using the dark them, black pixels are actually turned off which saves battery life. If you use white you are turning them on using much more battery.

I'm using HTC radar its slcd so white it is. Coupled with stormtrooper wallpaper is way to go...

I need a Stormtrooper wallpaper for my white Lumia.

In terms of visual appeal, white is a million times nicer (and I should say, more approachable) than black. However, the front faces of our devices are black, and white drains more battery on AMOLED screens.

If I had a phone with a completely white front face and LCD screen, I'd definitely go white.

Perhaps the Focus 2 will work for you.

I'm still hoping for a combination of some sort on the next update.

I like the white If it uses more battery it uses more battery. I have a car charger a well as chargers at home and office. Te phone charges at home overnight and its on the charger off and on while at the office. ts no big deal to keerp it charged duringthe day if needed.

If I had a Win phone and for example Lumia 900 it would be Cyan or White Lumia with dark theme with red tiles. Especially with cyan, the red tiles look great.

Interesting fact. Thanks!

Thanks. I made this one out of a wallpaper I found online. It looks great on the phone.

Oh, and don't criticize me for my paint.net skills; I'm studying to be an engineer, not a designer.

Wow! Lumia 900 is really something, no wonder titan was left behind...the screen, the wallpaper and the white lumia puts all smartphones to shame...
