I’m torn between the new color and the gold finish. Even though I don’t like green, everyone will know you have the latest and greatest iPhone just by looking at it. That may be one reason to choose it over previous years gold. What will be your choice and why?
 
Well, think about what you're saying a moment: "I don't like the green but I'm going to get it anyway because I want everyone to see I've got the latest iPhone" - sorry but that's a little bit sad tbh. Personally I quite like the green, would have to see it in person if I were considering a purchase though. I'm sticking with the smart money and waiting to see what the 2020s bring.
 
I have had a black or space grey iphone since 2007. I'm going with the midnight green this time. Looks like a great, subtle color and i'm ready for a bit of a change.

As soon as i saw it yesterday i knew it was the one ;)

Green is my favourite color and the new Midnight Green looks fabulous. The Gold last year also looked fantastic, but I went with Space Gray because that's what I was familiar with, but if I had to pick one this year it'd definitely be the green color. I've had enough of the basic Silver/SG.

You don’t like the green, but want it because everyone know you’ll have the latest. Can we say clout chaser.

You picked the perfect avatar given your favorite color is green!

I don’t know what color to get or even if I want to try for the Pro over the regular iPhone 11.

The Midnight green is pretty but there’s a lot of case colors it clashes with badly when I looked at them on the Apple Store site.

I’d probably go black or silver for that reason. If I get the iPhone 11 I might pick the mint green. That was my favorite color in the 1980’s.

If I upgrade from my 8 Plus it will be the Midnight Green in a clear case but it will be because I like the color... not so I can stand on a screen corner holding my phone out saying "look at me I have the newest iPhone I'm special."

Seriously... I could give af what other people think of my electronic devices and as someone said above I don't care what phone you use.
 
Space gray for me. I alternate between white and whatever the “black” phone is called every time I upgrade

My XS Max is Space Gray. My X was Silver. I do like the Pro Green, but if I upgrade, I will probably go with the matte Silver.

Yeah, I’m totally buying always the latest colour to make sure some stranger might understand from a distance that I have the latest iPhone.

Totally worth it to me. /s

I would get the green if it was the same as the green used for the iPhone 11, but I think the Midnight Green is to dark, so I’m planning on going with the silver instead.

I know, it’s called “Midnight Green” for a reason, but I still think that it’s too dark.

UGH! So you're one of those kinds of people that have to show off "look what I've got!? UGH! Just UGH!

WHO CARES if others know you have the latest and greatest phone! Not to mention... how DUMB is it to buy a color yout don't even like just to SHOW OFF!!!!!??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

With the exception of the pink phone I've always bought black... because I LIKE BLACK PHONES. And I usually put a pink case or polka dots. Last year I actually bought the GREEN leather case BECAUSE I THOUGHT THE COLOR WAS HOT!

This year I'm ordering the GREEN phone BECAUSE IT'S PRETTY. I don't GAF if people know or realize I have a brand new model phone...

Apple's Saddle case will compliment the green nicely. All the others (blue, black, red.... etc....) notsomuch.

Seriously? Who cares what someone else thinks? God forbid you're not using "this year's" iPhone, you'll be banished from society.
