Looking at the website, the white is 1080p @ 30fps and the black is 1080p @ 60fps and also support 4k @ 12 fps, so for video the black is better but I doubt 1080p @ 30fps will be too bad quality for most of us. The black can also take 12MP stills with 30 fps burst, the white is only 5MP with a 3 fps burst. The black also comes with the Wifi remote control which is an optional extra for the white.
