For anyone that has seen the silver in person, is it real shiny as it looks on youtube?
I sorta want silver and will have case on, but worried about front that is silver and if when in the sun, if it is gonna be to shiny and bright

I have the silver titanium. Wouldn't change it for the world...except when I'm driving with it in my lap and the sun hits it. Otherwise I've never had any issues. Put it in a case and flip it over.

I was worried, in the sun, when trying to take a photo, it might shine in my eyes.

I've actually never noticed an issue. It's been a really nice ride. My biggest issue was the one I mentioned before. No issues in the sun taking pics.

Also the silver will help reflect rays and heat keeping the phone cooler. The black Onyx will do the opposite in sun and get your phone hotter :-$

That sun comment is actually pretty accurate. I was out in the brush in 90 degree heat taking some pics of troop movements while at drill and my phone was, ahem, a ray of sunshine. Didn't notice any overly warm physical heat.

Mentioning troop movements... makes me think a chrome phone wouldn't be good for you... last thing you need is a phone that's gonna reflect light and shine and give away your position lol.

I'm a fan of a white phone, that said, Silver was the obvious choice for me... It's very pretty in person.

It's VERY shiny, but gorgeous.
 
I though it was really shiny. Like mirror finish but that's just me and maybe moreso the back than the front panels.
 
Silver brings back memories of my last silver phone... Nextel Motorola i830... IMO one of my best looking phone ever had.
I was thinking Coral Blue but now I'm leaning towards Silver. Black is sleep but seeing it at BB... makes the phone look plastic.

I'm THIS CLOSE to cancellation of my order just for that Silver. Ugh.
