I got the black at VZW on pre-order. They had all 3 colors on display and in stock when I picked mine up. The blue was a great color, but I've never been a fan of white faces. When I went home and looked at my wife's white Turbo 2. I decided, I dunno, it's somehow more cheerful than my black Pixel. Making me really regret not taking the blue.
Of course, by then the blues were out of stock at the store and VZW shows shipping Dec 2. However it turns out that if you take advantage of the exchange otpiton at VZW for a back-ordered device the 14 day return clock doesn't start running until they ship the phone. So now I get to "borrow" my black one for the several weeks before my blue one comes out. And I'm gonna use a clear case. I get to use a Pixel now, and get the color I want in a few weeks.
Or, I get to have my blue cake and eat my white frosting too......
