That's merely one reference the OP mentioned as to why he didn't believe it was the Space Gray model. In the render, both the bands and body are significantly darker.
iphone 6 looks very very ugly
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder
.But anyway, the design grew on me and I think it looks nice.
And I had to upgrade, otherwise my friends in school will tease me for using 5.
Nope, the camera itself is a good reason to upgrade IMO. The 240fps slow motion and 60fps 1080p recording are awesome !
How about you ?

Actually there are no CGI iPhones on Apple's site. These are all real phones.
He was referring to the comment about your friends making fun... if that wasn't clear.
Post the article then.
There have been iPhone images on both apple.com and in keynotes with goofs like misplaced switches and missing antenna bands, clearly indicating that they're renders.
Peter Balanger is the photographer behind all the gorgeous iPhone and iPhone photos that Apple uses for marketing.

And it's A LOT of work.

They're real but photoshopped
Renders always look fake. Apple does not render anything.
They're real photographs eventually made into renders post-production. They have to anyway in order to be perfectly consistent.
but that's because you have to see the extreme detail in the website. So that you're not questioning what you're buying when you get the device. It includes taking hundreds of mega photos and stitching them all together.
Such as those on Apple website with obviously off Space Gray color. Not to mention goofs like missing antenna bands and switches not quite in the right positions which they fixed after the fact.
If nothing else I think those dark bands look much better. Been nice if they were black on space grey.
Also to point out a lot of times manufacturers won't try to match colors on dissimilar materials because it's difficult to have them match perfectly and ends up looking half assed.
Another thought, are all the bands across all iphone 6 the same color? Cuts down on manufacturing costs if so.
