But I find it a bit weird that on the other colors the side LEDs just shine through the colored body. And in the video it looks like it doesn’t work very well. If that wasn’t the case I would have taken a colored one, I think they look pretty cool.
That is correct. I have not seen the actual product yet, but I am quite sure that will be some color shift for colored models. For example, red LED output projected through starry blue shell will give slight purplish tint to it (to be confirmed).
