hmm I had a black iphone 4 and a black iphone 5..... but im leaning toward the white/grey for the 5s... make it feel more new i suppose.

who am I kidding I have no idea! this is the hardest part!

70/30 for the white i think:D:confused:
 
im surprised there are not more white/silver fans. I'm going to have to wait until I see them in person, but I think I'm going with the classic white. I love the idea of the gold one, but I would have much preferred a gold on black, rather than white. 80/20 on going with the white/silver vs going white/gold.
 
Had a white 4S and a white 5 due to the black scuffing so easily. The new black looks much more durable with it having.a grey back now like the white, albeit a little darker than the white/silver.

This time around, I'm getting black.
 
I'm most likely going with gold. I've had white and black so it's something completely new. Ill also have it in a case so you'll only be able to see the front small portions of the side. The gold ring with be a nice touch while not being overwhelmingly gold.
 
Most of the votes are for space grey... if i was going to use it naked that will also be my option... but i never take the risk of using my iphone without a case.. so the i ll purchase again the white one because its the best looking when it is combined with a slim case :apple:
 
It was easier for me to pick what color my new car would be (which I keep for 7-8 years) then to pick this iPhone's color which I'll have for 1 year. :rolleyes:

After 4 black iPhones I want a change but still not sure about the white front.
 
I'm really really torn between gold and silver. To me it seems like silver is easier on the eyes, but the gold is new and different, and I like having something different to look at.
 
Space Gray
+Imperceptible home button ring
-Doesn't match with many cases

White
+Matches with all cases
+Matches with Macbook Air

Gold
+New
-Only matches with soft toned beige case


Gold is out. Still deciding between White and Black. Seeing as I already have the white, I'm going to have to go with the Black.

I think the gold looks great with the brown and the black cases as well. I'm getting gold and probably leaving it caseless as well. Hoping Best Buy has docks as well. This Belkin one I have is not very reliable or stable.
 
I think the black looks better when customized with Lucky Labs sprectra wraps...

Having owned the iPhone 4 in Black and iPhone 4s in white, I think I am going back to black...

Agreed... IMHO the gold is kinda ugly... I was surprised to see it. if the word "space" is in it. I'm all over it. In all seriousness though, the Gray/Black is where I land.
 
Having finally got to see a good picture of the "ring" on the space grey model I have changed my mind and will be going with white/silver. I like they way the two white models have a Touch ID ring that is more visible

And I love how the fingerprint scanner is imperceptible.

I think black conveys power, and with the 64-bit processor you really feel it with that color. So I'm gonna go with the black on black.

I know! Haha.

Definitely not gold but I do like the muted fingerprint sensor on the black. Sleeker look.
 
Another perk of the space gray is that people might think you have the 5c, so you get the cred without actually having to own one. Then you tell them you have the 5s, and that's double the cred.
 
I had a black 4 and 4S and switched to white for the 5. The gold ring around the fingerprint scanner and the chamfered (SP?) edges almost swayed me but I think I'm going to stick with white again.

Now hopefully I can actually get one!
 
I asked my kids what color to get and they shouted "GOLD!" and were really disappointed when I said "No way".

I will probably get the White/Silver in any size they will have but if I have to I will get the Space Grey. Gold is just not an option.
