"A colleague of mine just picked up a 16 GB iPhone 4 in white.

I was a bit surprised when I picked it up off his desk (I had my black 32 GB in my other hand at the same time) – it immediately felt thicker.

We placed them side-by-side on his desk, and sure enough, the white iPhone was a hair thicker."

Class action! CLASS ACTION!

I wonder if there are any cases with tolerances low enough to not have them fit.

The source claims that's the (ahem) case.

White is the new fat.

Which is odd, because if you put a white iPad next to a black one, the white one looks smaller.

I think the evidence is clear: Apple without Steve can't decide if white is fat or not. Sell! SELL!

Consumer reports measured them and they are the same.

I keep thinking this thread is a Trump thread and it should be moved to the pol lounge.

All the man needs is a little gel and a comb.
