Really wish the non-Pro models had that frosted matte glass look that the 11 Pros (and apparently the 12 Pros) have. The back of my 11 Pro is my favorite thing about that phone!
Ugh no thanks, the frosted glass is as slippery as soap while the regular glass on the iPhone 11/12 is super grippy in comparison.
 
I have a gut feeling the Pacific Blue iPhone 12 pro will be gorgeous. I just got my clear MagSafe case for it and I'm super excited. Especially since there is a tiny difference in size from my current iPhone X. I'm ditching Apple Care this year (I've NEVER used it) so a case is a must have. Man, can't wait for the phone. I pray it comes a day early from the earliest date of my window... I'll actually be home that day.
 
I would love to see some proof for that.

Mine is still very fast and works as expected. A few microscratches on the screen (that you can only see in certain lighting conditions) really don't bother me on a 3 year old phone... and my iPhone 7 had the same problem.
If you look at the drop tests that the insurance companies produce, the X was the most likely to fail, while the original SE was one of the most durable. You can google them if you want to see the exact numbers.
 
Best color this year. 👌😍


It actually looks a lot better in this video than in other videos and photos I’ve seen IMO. Still not the biggest fan of it (I got the green) but for those who ordered it or are thinking of ordering it, hopefully it’s as accurate as it can be without seeing it in person.

And in this video, I really don’t like how it looks. It looks like the same brighter shade of blue that I’ve seen in most photos. Hopefully this is just a case of it being filmed under different lighting conditions than Zollotech’s video and not a manufacturing issue resulting in varying shades of blue.

EDIT: adding screenshot of how it looks in this video:

Based on what I've seen its pretty clear what color the phone is. Under bright light it will look as above, under more dim light it will be the nice dark color we were all hoping for.

I think outside under the sun it's going to look like a Subaru STI

I think I'd go with white most likely, if not black.

But I have to admit it is perplexing that in the video above where it is darker blue, it looks like a well-lit space......maybe the white table playing tricks on my eyes though?
 
I swear the blue looks completely different in every photo and video that I see. Gonna have to just see one in person for myself.

It's not blue, it's gold! 🤣

White it is then.
Classic and less fingerprints showing.
