I'm very very undecided between the air 2 colors!
I have an air in space grey and I want to upgrade...
Currently my combination is with a green smart cover, but i like very much the red one....
so my question is to find some good pics from you owners of the air 2 in gold (cellular version maybe) with various combination of smart cover and pics from you owners of the air 2 in space grey with various combination of smart cover so i can have a better idea!
Many thanks
This time I'm unsure about gold... I like the novelty, but I'm worried about being tacky

I love my gold iPad Air 2 but taking pics won't do it justice imo. I prefer the white fronts over the black ones so I prefer the silver and gold iPads


I'll add some pics later though with my iPad Air 2 cellular and red smart case
 
Honestly you should go look at them for yourself (if you can).

I'm with Closingracer, pictures won't do it full justice. But I can tell you why I went with my color choice.

I like the silver, but it had a white face on it. I prefer to have screens that I look at to have a black border, just improves contrast and viewing IMO. I am not a fan of any of the gold products, so that left me with Space Gray.

The gray metal is a classic color, with a nice combination of the black face plate. It really makes for a great looking device.
 
If you go to the Apple website and look under Store, Shop Accessories, Cases and Films and then iPad Air Smart Cover, you can get an idea of how the different colors look on the devices. It helped me decide on a color for my iPad Air 2 case.

That's exactly what I did too. Fast, convenient, and you can look at every single color combination possible. You'll have an answer to your question in less than 5 minutes.

I cannot stress enough...

I cannot stress enough how beautiful the gold iPad Air 2 is... It is really wonderful, and I LOVE how classy it looks with the white smart cover. Take a look at it.

I have the gold, as well. It's an interesting color. Under sunlight it's quite beautiful, but under natural lighting (yellow hues) I have difficulty discerning whether it's gold or silver. If I had a silver version right nearby it'd probably be more apparent.
 
I like the gold color on my Air 2. I think it looks much better in person than what it looks like in the pictures on Apple's website.

Using gold iPad at work

I use my iPad at work. Thus, you can imagine that, despite how beautiful the golden iPad Air 2 is, I considered that I needed to be "low profile" in the buying choice. The fact is, the light conditions completely change the hue/color of the iPad. In an office environment it can be quite HARD to distinguish the gold one from the silver iPads everybody uses. It is very subtle, but it keeps a charm of its own. In certain angles it is absolutely classy and "yellowish", in other perspectives, it can be quite bland and down-to-earth. I love it! I would not use 'bling-y' rainbow iPad for business purposes.

I just love it :)
 
If you are getting the cellular version, I would get it in space gray. I really don't like the white plastic rf window at the top of the silver and gold versions.

I really wish they would bring back the original iPad color scheme - silver case, black rf window and black bezel. Space grey looks pretty good, but it will show scratches more than the silver color.
 
i have a silver and i hate the white face. i wanted a SG air 2, but best buy was sold out on black friday. i also have a carbon fiber style cover so it makes it more whack, but whatever.
