I'm an Android fella, but I wanted to buy an iPhone for my newlywed wife. She has an iPhone 11 currently (no idea if it's Pro or regular or whatever). I suspect she knows I'm buying it for her, but would still like to keep it a relative surprise if possible.

My question is -- what color to buy for her? Her current phone is white. Are there any reliable videos of someone holding the Pro (or Pro Max) white titanium and the natural titanium side by side? To my eyes, none of them look 'feminine' (she likes feminine colors), and the white just looks boring to me. But if she has white currently I can't go wrong, right? Or should I take a shot at the titanium blue for her since it's kind of different?
 
If she has white now, I think this is the safest bet. I have the white from last year and it looks beautiful. I have the Sierra Blue 13PM as well, and this looks nice — but the titanium blue looks darker. White is the lightest and brightest, so that seems like the best choice for her.
 
Thanks I just found a video (link here if interested) that around the 6:40 mark has good comparisons of Pro models. I think he mentions the Pro Max are the same colors as the pro. I personally really like the blue, but that's my favorite color. The white looks nice with the shiny-chrome edges. I think that's the direction I'll go -- thanks!

The Pro frames aren't shiny but brushed finish. Just check Apple's website as these units in the video aren't real.

The video is a bit of a waste of time because those aren't the real models, they are mock-ups, with some big differences from the final version. The edges especially. He doesn't mention that anywhere in the video which is really shady.

Ah thanks for letting me know. You're right I just found a different video, and the sides definitely look different.

Assuming this video is legit, I really do love that blue! The white not as much in this one...

Finally a decent video to get a good sense of all the colours together. Feel like there's such few hands on being shared.
