I’m surprised how popular the green is. I’m also surprised how unpopular the gold is.

I went for gold, having always had space grey. I’m glad I did, it’s a lovely colour, not too yellowy or bling-blingy :D

Yeah a lot of my friends who are upgrading are going to the green. I feel like everyone sees something which I don't

I also don’t see the attraction of midnight green (silly name, too!), other than it being the new colour. I saw the demo MG unit yesterday in store and felt kinda meh about it. Never even considered it during preorder, I was stuck between space grey and gold.
 
At the Apple store now and having looked at all 4 colors side-by-side, I’m happy I went Silver. It is everything I expected and more. The matte back gives it the frosted look that goes perfectly with the SS band. I keep picking it up and wanting to take it home with me. It’s so beautiful!

The MG does nothing for me, but then that’s why there are choices.
 
I'm exchanging my midnight green phone for a silver one at the apple store today. Luckily, they are readily available around here. The midnight green looks gray most of the time to me. I always have preferred the apple classic white color, don't know why I didn't go with my gut originally.

The MG really does look like a charcoal grey with green undertones most of the time. I picked up one near the window and saw the green a little more, but it’s overcast here today. Waiting to see the full green only in the brightest light on the brightest, most sunniest day? Nah. But then the clue was in the name - Midnight Green - which basically means a barely seen green. You don’t see much at midnight without some sort of light to help.

The more I see the MG the less I care for it. I would describe it as a blah color with an identity crisis ;) Different strokes.

ETA: ..and then I look at it again and I like it 🤷‍♂️

I preordered the Midnight Green, but all of the YouTube videos and posts had me second guessing my choice. After checking it out in the store today, I do still really like it, but this year's implementation of Space Gray with the matte finish won me over as being just a hair classier.
 
I’m very surprised that more than half of the people chose midnight green. I’ll have a look at the Store before buying it. I like the white one, too.
 
The only reason I'd want the green is because it's the new color (though I haven't always done that; I didn't go with rose gold for the 6S). Otherwise I saw it in the store today and in certain lighting it was virtually indistinguishable from the space gray. If it was more green I'd probably choose it, but it almost seems more gray than green. So then I may end up going for the gold. The fact that the gold is the least popular option here also kinda makes me want it more. I like an underdog story :p

I have a gold 11 Pro, it’s stunning ☺️ like a mixture of a gold and a cream colour! I actually kinda like that gold isn’t that popular this year, means it’s more rare
 
I went with silver and love it. But I really want to see the green in person. Sometimes it looks like greyish sludge, and I can't imagine why anybody would chose that over space grey. Then I'll see a pic of it glinting in the light with a paler teal tone, and it looks really beautiful. Confusing!
 
Got my green Pro Max yesterday in the Apple Store. The color is beautiful. I was a little concerned about the size of the max, but it is perfect too, really no bigger than my 6s. I also purchased the clear cover. I never understood going to all the trouble to pick out a certain color, only to cover it with a different color. The entire process with Apple was awesome. They always exceed my expectations.
 
Im getting the silver in a couple of days just adding my two sense in here lol

I tried the 11 and I thought might as well go all out on this one lol

Get... the... pro max 😊

Well I’ve got a MG and like the colour, bought a clear case to show it off but the problem is that pretty much all clear cases I’ve seen are relatively slippy and smooth in order to maintain transparency. So I’ve not got it in a black Speck Presidio Grip case and although most of it is hidden the green shiny bits you can see around the lens make a nice contract with the matt black case.
 
I always get silver, even though it goes in a case and doesn't have the white face anymore.

Try the Tech21 Pure Clear or something like that. It’s got good reviews.

I got the Space Grey.

Coming from the Silver XS, it’s a very refreshing change while still looking elegant and timeless. :)
 
I tossed around the Green or Silver for a week and went with Silver. I am using a clear case on a belt clip and think the white will show less dirt and trash that will make it in the case.
 
I went from a SG X to a Gold XS to now a MG 11 Pro. Always fun to switch up the colors. My boss went for midnight green after having every black option since the original iPhone.
