New covers available for the diamond here to cover the red
 

For those of you who have been asking, here is a phone condom that will cover up the red back that everyone seems to have a problem with (not that I do, I think it looks kind of good).

Damn it - I misread this - I thought this was a replacement back cover, not a case/condom. If anyone finds a replacement rear cover that comes in black like the telus please post.

Thanks

Red? Why is the diamond red?
 

Ok, call me crazy but I paid over $600 for my sprint diamond (I'm in the middle of my contract) but to be honest... I really dont like the fact that its red. I would really prefer that the back be black. (like the rest of the phone)

So... Here is my questions;

Who thinks/knows that either sprint htc or some third party accessory manufactures will make replacement battery doors in black or other colors?

Also, who else feels like I do? Am I the only person who is not a fan of the red back on the Sprint diamond? To me It looks cheap!

(FYI... I ordered mine at 1am pst. thats California time and I'm still waiting on my confirmation number)

There's a lot of posts on bashing the red back. Personally, I like it. However most people wont, I'm sure someone (3d party source) will release a different back, if not, try getting the Telus back.

Re: Red? Why is the diamond red?
 

You could call Telus and see if you could order a black one or contact HTC sales directly off their website and see if they have the black or any other color available yet. (this is what I did with the cdma touch when it came out and they had gray, teal, white and black replacements)

P.S. Further thought would be that Sprint wants the Diamond to stand out so other people notice something different, other than just ignore another black phone and actually inquire about it.. Colored condoms/cases just seem to bulk up an otherwise sleek phone IMHO.

This argument has been beaten to death in these forums already. I doubt anyone wants to go over it again, sorry. The fact is though even if you change the back, at the bottom where the mini usb port is has red and it can't be removed. You would end up with a black Diamond with red around the charger port. Also the stylus itself has a red tip, so you would have to buy a new one as well.

As far as it looking cheap, I don't think you should judge before seeing it in person. If you hate the color so much why did you pay over $600 for it?
