I got my Micro well after it was discontinued so I didn't get a choice of colours, face plates, or any accessories really, lol.

The screen being so small is the reason why it looks so good, lol. The same goes with the Go, it's screen is absolutely gorgeous as it's a slightly smaller version of the screen in the 3000, but without scanlines, or ghosting. Everything's so crisp, and vibrant.
The Go and the Micro have a lot in common. They're both late generation heavy revisions of popular platforms as an attempt to target different lifestyles (Go with the digital download consumer, and the Micro with the fashionable consumer). Both were never meant to replace the main models (GBA SP, and PSP 3000). They both broke compatibility with previous acessories, and games (in the case of the Go, UMD releases, and in the case of Micro, GB/C titles). Lastly, both sold like carp compared to the platforms they were revising, lol.
