Why is the black one more expensive?

When I purchased mine in October of 2014 there was one color available and that color was black.

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 :-)

The silver is the corded version, while the black is the rechargeable (and more expensive) version.

I don't believe so. I bought blue and I think they were more money than the black. Pricing may be based on popularity of the colors.

i have no idea. i went with the cheaper black one, because they were the same brand. both made in the USA. the only differences i could see were the color & the price. i don't know if the red ones have a sharper blade or not. i only bought the one. i didn't want to buy a red one & take a chance that it would be better. i just bought an electric one at walmart instead. i haven't tried it yet, because i haven't needed to open a can. i think the cans themselves are the root problem. i never used to have trouble opening a can years ago. now i think the labels go up higher on the can or something. i don't know. i've been going through can problems for like, a year. it's so frustrating! good luck! i have no idea. i went with the cheaper black one, because they were the same brand. both made in the USA. the only differences i could see were the color & the price. i don't know if the red ones have a sharper blade or not. i only bought the one. i didn't want to buy a red one & take a chance that it would be better. i just bought an electric one at walmart instead. i haven't tried it yet, because i haven't needed to open a can. i think the cans themselves are the root problem. i never used to have trouble opening a can years ago. now i think the labels go up higher on the can or... » Read More i have no idea. i went with the cheaper black one, because they were the same brand. both made in the USA. the only differences i could see were the color & the price. i don't know if the red ones have a sharper blade or not. i only bought the one. i didn't want to buy a red one & take a chance that it would be better. i just bought an electric one at walmart instead. i haven't tried it yet, because i haven't needed to open a can. i think the cans themselves are the root problem. i never used to have trouble opening a can years ago. now i think the labels go up higher on the can or something. i don't know. i've been going through can problems for like, a year. it's so frustrating! good luck! « Show Less

Does appear to be a black one. Was priced at around 79. + dollars, says it is on sale for 59.99. Assuming that is what you meant?

I don't know about the black one as I purchased the orange and black one. The black on the orange and black one is black.

I have no idea why the black model would be more expensive, but what I can tell you and the red is beautiful!

There's no difference in quality -- the prices just seem to fluctuate for no reason. $17.99 is a great deal for the black, though -- thanks for the head's up! I just ordered three of them!

I really have no idea!! I saw the blue one & that was that, seems like something would be put in or maybe they switched prices & forgot the black one!! Maybe if you email the company & ask them they will have an answer for you!! Good Luck in finding your answer!!!

because the expensive one is popular and people are willing to spend more on it.

I don't think that there are any technical advantages but it looks better and scratches less as the black is a matt plastic type material. I have the black model.

It appears that if you really need to spend an extra $70 for the black camera, then that is the difference.

I don't know. I ordered the black and you can see by my revised review that I am quite dissatisfied with its performance.

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.

the black one looks more like 400-500 when zoomed position totally more than worth the money

probably due to demand for black being higher. the silver looks cheap & too much like a toy. silver electronic gadgets have been a pet peeve of mine. the black is more elegant and conveys a seriousness to it, and this camera has some serious features for taking great photos.
