It looks more like a Matt grayish and not glossy on overall view. Disappointed because while the hype of this helmet says it has speaker ports and cheek quick release, and even the picture shows the padding with the cheek quick release, the model they sold has neither. I went ahead and bought a white version since when I made the decision to buy another helmet all research beside the little quirks fits this.
Reason why I wanted this helmet and still does is because I was looking for another Snell mid-budget 2020 rated, and this is the only one. As for grayish, I was disappointed. I was looking forward to install a Sena audio Bluetooth system intercoms and even saved some on my shopping cart but realized it's impossible now. And yes don't get me started on doesn't need speaker ports, it does otherwise without the ports it becomes unsafe if you actually crash this helmet and either get hit on your left or right ears. The padding won't save you. So it needs to be beveled deep to match a round countour that made it as if it's the design.
I've had similar experience of installing headset Intercom on other helmets that didn't have the port in the past and from time to time I can feel the irritation on my ears. Heck it's even harder to put on to sit on your head when the helmet doesn't have the speaker port cut-out and you install an intercom in there.
I bought this helmet for ATV'ing and Autox. It's DOT and Snell 2020 approved. 2XL fits my watermelon sized head perfectly. Battleship Gray looks great.
I am more then impressed with this helmet! Also bought used and man looks like new!

Owning a Sena 20S Evo, I was attracted to the i90 because it was configured for a Sena Bluetooth system. I figured it would be ideal compared to a standard helmet.
Pros - Good fit as always. Recesses and wire channels for speakers = easy fitting. I had to use a few pieces of electrical tape to hold wires in place as I reattached the liners over them.
Cons - The drop down visor should have been better executed.
First, the control slide is positioned in front of where the Sena system(s) would mount. This means the Sena mounts further back than it could fit on the helmet. This makes placement of the 20S Evo's boom-microphone more difficult, but I managed to make it work.
Second, the control IS NOT spring-loaded like my last HJC. There is no quick-retract mechanism...something I think should have been retained. For a "three position" visor, I don't see it. There's deployed, retracted and ... well, since there's no spring, I guess you can deploy it as much or as little as you desire.
I've been happy with HJC's quality over the years. The quirks regarding the visor mechanism is the only reason I don't give the i90 a 5-star rating.
The helmet is not light, it has good padding, the fit around the head is correct. Wind noise tolerable. Has a little hidden compartment for Bluetooth device and cutout for speakers. My eyeglasses didn't fit right in the helmet cutout for glasses. The modular is nice but the locking mechanism squeezes the cheek area in so that it becomes uncomfortable because my cheek and jaw are compressed. I brought a large helmet so I brought a new pair of cheek pads, which isn't cheap, on size larger. Still uncomfortable on the face.
Good helmet for the money
