Mine arrives sometime today, but I ordered the white Pro because I’m the obsessive type who will never be fully happy with any color I pick.
Got the Pro silver, thinking should of gotten graphite or blue. We'll see, mines will be here today.
So do you like the Pacific Blue or are you regretting your color choice?
Personally I can’t wait for my Pacific Blue thats arriving today. Almost went with the graphite but when i saw the Pro Blue it was an easy choice.
sometimes I like it, other times less so. It changes in every room, seriously. ive slapped a blue silicon case on it anyway
Pacific Blue on the way, and won't feel any remorse.
The graphite bores me. I would love a thick matte black Pro. The gold sides look cool but not a fan of the back.
The silver looks great tbh, but I've had lots of white phones including my SE2 (and had a silver X) so ready for a change.

Surely it doesn’t matter what colour you go for really. Most people put a case on it anyway.
Just came back from my local Apple Store. That white model with the untreated stainless steel scratches like hell. I'd guess it's as susceptible as the Stainless Steel Apple Watch or the white models before it, just it shows up more because it's a flat edge.
Be careful out there if you want to keep it looking pristine!

pacific blue in hand, LOVE it! Sad that I am covering 95% of it with a case though, I may have to get a secondary clear case to use part time. Although the greenish case I got looks amazing with the pacific blue (amazon - Miracase in Midnight Green). I can post pics later if anyone is interested.
Got the graphite, loved the videos of it, and now it’s in hand... I’m glad I didn’t change my mind. Matches any case you pair it with, looks so nice and sleek!
Some of us prefer clear cases so phone color does indeed matter.
That’s hilarious. Omg. I love the color. Now I’ll throw a butt ugly case on it and never see it again.
When I got ready to sell my SS Apple Watch S3, I heard about Cape Code cloths. Got one from Amazon and buffed all the small scratches out. Took some buffing work but it came out looking like new! I plan on getting the 12 Pro Max in silver and if I get any scratches on it, I will use the same technique.
Doesn't the Silver have the PVD coating as with the other colors this year?
Just finished setting up my graphite 12 pro. My delivery was set for 11/12 - 11/19 and I woke up crazy early for some reason so I decided I’d go check out the Verizon store up the street. Got there 2 minutes before the doors opened and was third in line.
My top choice was split between blue and graphite and when I walked in they said they had blue and graphite in stock. Great. Their phones are so locked down that you basically have to turn your head and slide up underneath the three inches of give on the security cables so I couldn’t get a great angle on either of them.
I was trading in a gray 11 Pro so I figured I’d just play it safe and go with the graphite to avoid the possibility of regretting the blue choice and having to pay the $50 restocking fee (on top of their “upgrade fee” which covers the labors of me moving my SIM into the new phone).
Overall impression is that it’s a very sharp looking device. I definitely feel the size increase coming from the 11 Pro but I’m sure I’ll get used to that soon. As long as I focus on the screen the fingerprints shouldn’t bother me but there is an ever so slight chance I’ll end up getting a case for it *shudders*.

I bought pacific blue, and just got it. It looks fantastic, but the gold has been bugging me, so i ordered it for in store pick up tomorrow. My wife said she's fine taking whichever one I don't want to keep.
The silver is actually white and gorgeous! It is the best color! Second is the gold!
Hmmm good question. I guess I'll have to find out if the regular stainless has this coating or not. And if ie does, can one use the Cape Cod cloth on it.
To an extent, if you go for a case. But equally paying at least £799 for a phone that you don't like the look of isn't great.
I'm struggling with the 12 blue. But also don't think any of the other colours would be an improvement.
