I think blue just feels "modern". Red LEDs feel like they belong to the 80's, and green to around 2000. While white feels "clean".

I agree 1,000% that they're ridiculous though. But the colors are definitely about achieving an up-to-date "look".

Blue just feels tacky and cheap to me. Maybe "modern" and "cheap" are just the same thing.

I think we are rounding another curve where the blue will start to fade away and white will be the new color
