Its the micro scratches that will just make the chrome untidy, I would be shocked if micro scratches on the SG were even noticeable.
No change or keys in your pocket you naked silver users.

True but overwhelmingly silver
Unless it's one of those things where u see the car color/model u chose on the road more often but nothing's changed
That it looks better in photographs you mean? Kinda essential for the media right?
A Black slab might not look great in photos but I have a hunch in real life its a whole different ball game. Silver lovers might well be SG envious in a few months time.
My silver iPhone X got delivered about 30 minutes ago. Coming from a matte black 7 plus. So glad I went for the silver.
I have the Silver iPhone 8+.
It is stunningly beautiful. It varies from “white” to a very soft warm gray depending on the light. Just a gorgeous object.
Last year the Jet black iPhone had me salivating. It too was objectively the best looking iPhone. I still went with the Silver iPhone 7 though because Im a silver person.There's nothing like seeing someone really proud of their color choice. And how they manage to actually look down on the other color.
(I'm just bitter as silver seems to be wining)
I'll go now....
I expect the opposite. The SG scratches will look... silver. The silver scratches can be buffed out. THat's how it works with the stainles apple watches anyway. Granted their SB watch is MUCH more scratch resistant with the DLC.
This is a gorgeous, beautiful device. If not the best, at least up there with the finest Apple designs of all time. The silver is the way to go, best of both worlds: Stainless steel reminiscent of the first iPhone, white background yet black front bezel. It just makes for a stunning tri-tone design.
Picks up fingerprints just by looking at it however. Bit of a change coming from the matte black 7+
iOS 11.1 upgrade was part of the boot process. First time I've seen that. Face ID was incredibly fast to set up. Especially compared to the tap tap tap drudgery of Touch ID. The screen is incredible. The Hello screen looked like it was printed on top. And yes, I've already done my first phantom home button click.

They are a disaster. I even read the San Fransisco thieves didn't even want them and threw them aside.
So I've been playing around with it and comparing it to my 7+.
I noticed that with True Tone on, the screen seems to be very yellow. Is that normal for OLED or are we just used to the LCD colours on the 7/8/+?

Micro scratches will 100% not look silver on the space grey, you've got to get deep to get the silver out I'm sure.
Guess we will have to see. I am expecting some PO'd posts showing solver peekig through in no more than a week.
As slick as the transfer process from your old phone is with the NFC and the watch like microdot cloud, restoring from iCloud is still a chore.
The "put your old phone next to your new phone" prompt didn't work for me, it said set up failure.
Had to set up manually.
Shipping times are getting shorter. Hopefully you get yours before November 20.

Whichever color you like best is the best for you. I have the space black 7 but ordered the silver X. I should get mine within a couple of weeks (hopefully next week as my card just got charged). I like to mix things up. My MacBook and iPad are rose gold.
