HTC Mogul with Purple Band Not Grey Band as Pictured on Sprint Site

Hi all,

I just got the HTC mogul from sprint about 2 weeks ago and its today to I realized that my HTC has a purple border around the screen as opposed to the silver grey one that was pictured on the site. I think the purple looks lame imo. Is sprint no longer making the grey silver ones or is this something I have to call up and ask for?

i'd like to see what you mean as well. Because I believe mine has a purple tint to it too. It's not really purple but it's noticible that there is a purple tint if you actually look at it. Mine is a replacement that I got when my screen cracked about a month or so ago. I'll post a picture later this evening if the starter of this thread hasn't but I'm at work and my camera is at home.

Pics, I am curious also. Although with the Seidio case, I see very little of the phone casing anyway.

if your phone comes with a purple tint, that means it has the new software which consists of the built in telenav which can be found under programs, and on the main display you'll see a drop down arrow which means you can stop all programs on the main page of your phone. i work for sprint so thats how i know.

Other differences between production runs have been noticed as well. Logos, keyboard textures, etc have all been known to vary from device to device.

keyboard texture is also much better on the phones with the purple tint around the screen. I noticed it right away when I got the new phone.

My new one has the same purple tint....it is semi noticable....nothing major.

Hey everyone here are pics. Personally I think the purples looks dumb and would prefer the grey. But that keyboard having better texture makes me rethink that...

Keyboard on this phone has a gritty almost rubber like feel but feels more like plastic with a thin grit. Anyone else confirm the differences between this phone and the grey/silver one?

Here are some pictures:
