What's the best color you've seen on an iPhone?
In my opinion (no particular order)

- Pacific Blue on the iPhone 12 Pro
- Midnight Green on the iPhone 11 Pro
- ProductRED on the iPhone 7 (really good mix with the red back/white bazels)
- Jet Black on the iPhone 7
 
iPhone 4s - Black (The color of the glass, went really well with the metallic frame)
iPhone 5 - Black/Slate (So much better than Space Grey)

While I have never owned it, I kind of like the purple of the 12 Mini. If that color was available when I got my 13 Mini, I would have went with that.

What difference does it make after you stuff it into a case, which I surmise most people do.
That is, unless you stuff it into a clear case, in which case it will be so unsightly with smudges and scratches that it's not a pretty picture to look at anyway.
:rolleyes:
 
I went from thinking Sierra Blue was a boring and childish choice to thinking it's the best iPhone color I've ever seen. Seriously regret not getting that color.

It remains to be seen if Deep Purple makes it to the hall of fame 😊

Green and Blue are the best in my opinion, but Graphite doesn't get enough love.
I can't stand Gold, it looks good but it's honestly overrated.
 
I have been going case-less on my iPhones since 2007.

That's nice. Most stats I've seen put case usage at >90%. I work at a hospital full of iPhone users and I've never seen anyone using one without a case.

Anyway, I like green. Black phones are boring.

Same. Well, 2008 (the year iPhones were first sold in Japan). I've gone with white whenever it was available, until the 12 Pro Max, which I got in black or Space Grey or whatever it was called. For the iPhone 14 Pro Max, I went with Deep Purple and I absolutely love it. As always, I'm caseless so I can actually see and appreciate the cool color. I've always found it amusing how so many people hem and haw over which color to get, they post polls and really struggle to pick a color, when they're just going to put the iPhone in a case that completely hides the color anyway 🤣
 
iPhone 12 Blue. I use a case so it doesn’t matter but I still slightly regret getting my 12 Mini in black.
 
I loved the midnight green on my iPhone 11 Pro Max. But my iphone just died & I have to upgrade now. Kinda leaning towards the deep purple iphone 14 pro max… but I may go with the silver or space black this time. 🤷‍♂️

Black, black and black. Best colors ever (for me).

I have always preferred black in phones and will select any color offered that is as close to black as I can possibly get.

Unfortunately, Apple never offered black with the 6s+ and the iPhone 11 Pro Max, so I'm stuck with Space Gray.

Pacific blue, space black/graphite, I like the pure whites you find on the standard line up and black. 11 pro midnight green was also nice.

I like silver the best.
The iPhone 4 was a phone I loved in Black with the brushed SS sides.
