Or those who seen it at the conference. Perhaps we can compile a list. I'm just curious!

(I'm not including tech magazines/blogs as I doubt the person reviewing chose the colour - hence sticking to individuals - I'll add those with 500,000 to 1M+ subscribers to this first post)

YouTube

Silver
MKBHD - 5.3m subscribers (Apple iPhone X Unboxing!)
iJustine - 4.2m (Real iPhone X Unboxing!!!!!!)
Jonathan Morrison - 2.2m (Early Apple iPhone X Unboxing!)
UrAvgConsumer - 1.3m (My iPhone X Experience - Here's What You Should Know.)

Space Grey

If you look at their subscriber count it's not that high. I'm actually liking the fact that Apple gave lesser known vloggers a chance to check out their new phones.

AFAIK, most of these phones are being lent on a 24 hr basis for reviews and then sent back to Apple?
Could be a company dictated decision for the Silver rather than the SG. Correct me if I'm wrong please.

Usually the loan period is 30, 60, or 90 days. And I've heard stories of some reviewers keeping them, which is unsurprising considering that that far down the line Apple would have lost interest, and what would Apple do with them anyway?

What "Other" colors?

There are only two colors: Silver and Space Grey.

My red iPhone X is coming on Friday.
"YouTube" and "Others". Not "Colours" and "Others".

I got given a space gray by Apple Dubai. My unboxing went up on YouTube/EmkwanReviews and on my Instagram @ EMKWAN

So far they've made it sound like they chose those colours...

I'm also fairly sure I've heard some of them say they are opting for the silver in previous videos.

We were not given a choice. I got the Space Gray... I probably would have preferred the Silver

I am surprised they gave you one with only 32K subscribers (no disrespect intended 🙂) there are youtubers out there with millions of subs and not all of them have had one. How did you pull it off haha 😛

What are your honest thoughts on the space grey stainless steel? Is it marking easily? I've seen reports of the silver one showing marks within a days use.
