Is there any difference between the black and silver models other than the color?

Hi Joy, there isn't any different when it comes to features. Only the colors. -Vincent

One of them is silver, and once of them is black. Na im just kidding get the cheaper one. I asked myself the same question; I've had both and noticed no differences.

Not sure on model number but believe newer model is silver and older model is black. I purchased black on amazon at a huge discount. Had to search internet to find black add-on to carry four bikes.

The only difference I can see is the color. Mine's black and has given very good service.

all the next gen models are all black if it has silver trim its the previous version but both are called XDA-2 which is confusing. so this one is the next gen version

I bought this exact version and the all black version and the two are built identical other than the color scheme.

The colors Black and White tend to be associated with luxury and status. As a result, companies will increase the prices of their products that carry these colors to continue the trend of exclusivity with which they are associated. Silver is not one of those colors that is considered to be as luxe as black or white, hence the cheaper price. There is no difference between the physical characteristics and capabilities of the products, other than the color.

I saw it on Sony's website in black....really neat looking in black, but I have silver since black wasn't available at Best Buy!

I've had mine for 3 months already. To answer your question I think the black shows less wear than the silver one. A friend of mine introduced me to this product and he had the silver one. Although it looks sleek and cool, since it has brighter color than black I could easily see dirt and some wear on it. With the black, even with wear and tear its not that easily seen. I hope this helps.

Looking at the model numbers, they appear to be about the same.All black: MRS152-30 (originally $23)Shiny black w/ silver: MRS152UV-3 (originally $40)Since they appear to have the same set-up (2 sockets, 2 USB ports - 1A, 2.1A), I'm guessing the price difference relates to the plain plastic vs. fancy shiny casing.

The $170 version is the Mini, a newer model, smaller than the original. That smaller model didn't exist when I made my purchase, or I probably would have bought it instead. Whichever size you buy, I suggest the silver color, as it looks sleeker than black.

There is a different listing for the black version. You can find the black version here http://www.amazon.com/dp/B004JLY2GE

There's no difference. Only that it get in black or silver(as displayed on amazon) It's best to contact the seller about the color because they give at random. I have the black one and I looks pretty slick. It's very small though, like the size of your palm

They are essentially priced the same and practically do not differ that much. I had both, newer one works better for me in general (and finish-wise, black one goes better with my camera).I guess the old one becomes a collectible now :-)

Paint is the only difference. This model is black, the 'SN' model is painted 'sand' color (or tan).

I have no idea as I bought the black ones, should be no difference, they use the same material with the same tech.
