Before I hear cries of “not another colour poll” I thought it might be worth revisiting in light of new information. With rumours now pointing to all models of the iPhone Edition/X/8 sporting black bezels, does this change your colour preference at all? Which colour will you opt for if true?

[doublepost=1504940553][/doublepost]Speaking personally, this would absolutely shift me from choosing all black to silver.
 
Going to try the Blush Gold but will return it in a heartbeat if I don't like the color.
 
Doesn't matter now - Gonna use a case....big thing for me, apart from protecting the device, is to use phone flat on a surface & the protruding camera doesn't allow that.

I'll aim for black, but if there's a huge wait on it, I may go for either of the other 2...
 
Definitely keen to test the gold model. I have a gold iPhone 6 but my gripe is with the white front. It's so damn tacky!
But black front / gold rear as we've seen in the mock ups is a different story....I hope!

Why does that article, and even others from days ago, refer the silver version as being white? From the renderings and leaked images, it definitely looks silver. Just wondering if it's all wrong and it will be full white like the early iPhones. I hope it's silver.

If they have a white glass back with black front I think I'll go that route. I never liked white fronts.
 
This one excites me the most :-

Blush Gold would be my first choice if it comes with Black Front. [I hate that ugly notch on white Front] Otherwise Black all the way.

I wonder if the iPhone 8 will have a white front for the non-black colors, or if they’ll all be black like the iPhone X.
 
I may go with black, but I hope the stainless steel band will be silver just as the Apple Watch
I like the look of the White back as well, but not sure if the combo with a black screen will be nice.
 
If the front is black for all colors, I would go Silver this time around, I think. I've always had the darkest color iPhone and never deviated- mostly for the black front. Would be fun to mix it up.

If Silver has a black front and silver stainless steel band around the perimeter - I’m all in on that.

While not scientific in the slightest it’s interesting to see the shift in choices from the latest poll a fortnight ago. Hopefully a certain logistics guru based in Cupertino has his finger on the pulse and instructs supply accordingly ;) If the iPhone X is indeed expected to arrive later in October perhaps we can avoid a repeat of the Jet Black situation from last year

I think th blush gold gonna be amazing with black front bezels. I'd be the color I'd pick, however I'm not going to because I ain't gonna have people looking funny at me thinking I'm carrying a foundation pallet, so black it'll be.
 
The new gold color is intriguing...if its the picture shown above, I may have to go with the gold. I’ve had black for the last several cycles so if not gold, then likely silver.
