Wow that is one dull box to say the least. Whatever, all its doing it holding my new phone. :D Anyone else notice they cut a hold in the plastic for the camera lens to poke through?

The amount of insecurity I've seen on this forum since these iPhones were released is just getting ridiculous.

Amen. People have to gather acceptance from their peers and make fun of another choice to help make themselves feel better about their choice.

That poster is looking for someone to come in and say "yeah! black looks so boring and lame. So glad I got the white/silver/gold... so glad"

I think the correct word for the black is sleek.

Love the way the black screen disappears into the bezel. While I've had white phones in the past, it was always kind of an eye sore to see the black screen surrounded by all white.

To each their own. White is unique and different while black is sleek and sexy. That's how I look at it.

Thats what I thought too. I wanted Space Gray so bad. Oh well. White isn't bad. Had no choice if I wanted to get it launch day. Next time with the iPhone 7 I'll go Space Gray.

I have always had black until iPhone 5. The all black design on 5 didn't appeal to me and I liked the polished chamfered edges on the white phone. Now after 2 years, the white is played out in my eyes. Back to black (space grey).

Are you trolling? It's obviously a pre-release review unit...

Do you even know what trolling is? I just asked a rhetorical question. This box is also the same image on Apple's website so unless they are putting images of "pre-release" boxes on their website, it is most likely the final production box.

what is that a charger stand?

The thing that came out of the box? No, that is the UK/European wall adpater.

I had the black 4 which I didn't care much for (I always thought the 4 design was best in white), white 5 and gold 5s which I both loved, but the 6 in gold and silver, ehh doesn't do as much for me. I think the all Space Gray back (minus the antenna lines) looks amazing this time around. IMO, Apple did a great job on this phone.

Ordered the grey, but really think they should have just made a black one instead. It is a bit underwhelming (and I think that's the point - the grey model is likely for shrinking violets looking to blend in), but personally I don't care what the colour is. Just want a big screen :cool:

I call BS, there's no way Apple would make a phone with those bands on the back! So un-Apple like!

:rolleyes:

Where are all you guys now who said this was the Goophone? In hiding?

I prefer black because it is professional looking.

Only kids would like the flashy silver or cheap gold look! :eek:

Just kidding, glad Apple is giving us a choice.
