Microsoft advertising Grey L920

If you take a look on one on the picture for the L920, there is grey picture alongside the other colors for ATT L920. This might mean something, there is the link below
Nokia Lumia 920 | Windows Phone (United States)

Interesting. There is no cyan shown there as well.

I'm not holding my breath that they will have the grey for sale, but if they do that's where I'll be purchasing.

Why does grey matter so much? Your going to slap a case on it anyway.

Yet it's not on the Nokia 920 site.

Why would you slap a case on a phone that doesn't need one?

Common belief is that they scrapped the grey for cyan in the US.

No, I won't be using a case.

Thanks for playing though.

this is correct, and it makes the picture make sense, as they basically used a stock press photo for the international set. that's why there's no cyan, but there is grey.

the microsoft store isn't going to carry any phones that aren't available for a carrier. the lumia 800 was the only exception, and they didn't even carry much stock of that.

Was having one more color really going to change profit that drastically?

Gray is an easy choice over the black for me, and it's matte, right? I'd like to see how people like their flashy yellows and reds and cyans 1-2 years out.

I would have definitely gotten gray. Instead had to get black. The vibrant colors seem a little teen to me.

 

[Munkeyphyst]

The colors aren't even vibrant, they're just primary. The HTC colors are more interesting, tbh. That said, I'm considering the black, cyan or white, in that order. If grey was available here, it'd be a tie with black in that list until I could see it hands on...

Have had cyan N9 since 2011 and loving it to this day. Would buy cyan Lumia 920 in a heartbeat if it was available here in Europe on launch.


Just a reminder that neither is grey available anywhere in Europe.

I initially liked the grey as well, but that's basically taking it back to 2000-2005, when grey and silver phones were the norm. The trend thereafter was generally black. With the advent of a colorful OS like WP, colored phones will fit right in.

Anything you seeing marketing materials-wise I wouldn't put to much thought into. Historically those materials are poorly done to begin with in regards to accuracy.

The online store is going to carry every possible color tho. If AT&T isn't carrying the grey model. What version is this online grey model then? Unlocked? 1700/2100 bands? One can only hope
