Looking to hear from those who went from space black to graphite. I have a graphite on order because the new stainless color seems intriguing. I’ve had numerous silver stainless and also s4/s5 space black, so looking for a change.

I understand it’s only a few days, but any regrets from going to graphite from the space black? Some videos/photos look great being dark and others don’t look that great. Unfortunately my Apple Store 10 minutes away from me is still temporary closed. Would of been great to get hands on or even grab new bands.

All input is appreciated
 
I think you'll like it. I find the difference very subtle in person. In photos it can look a lot different from the Space Black, but its not that far off from it. It looks very nice and I think you'll be very happy with it.

As a space black owner, I think the major difference really is it’s not going have that ‘wet, dark appeal‘ that the space black carries, where as the graphite is almost like a ‘shadow gray metallic like-appearance’, But I think the graphite was a great secondary option Apple brought on board, even though I’m still partial to the space black.
