It's been around two months since release and I'm wondering if the majority of you are happy with your choice of color now that you've lived with it for a while? Or would you choose differently if given the choice?
 
I did debate whether to get the gold or silver Xs Max and I settled for silver like my previous X. I do like the gold but I’m happy with the silver.
 
I use to always have black phones but ended up getting silver this time around. Regretted not getting the gold color tho after.
 
Wanted black but they only had gold, didn't want it but it's covered in a black OtterBox Defender anyway
 
Deciding between the Gold or Silver XS Max would be the hardest decision for me. I have a Space Gray X and I hate the color, so I know I will not choose Space Gray again when I upgrade. I love the Gold but I also like the Silver, especially the way they look in clear cases.
 
Another black iPhone was never in the card; and this, especially, after owning a Product Red XR for a few days.

Got the silver and am awaiting a skin from Dbrand.

I’m pretty content.

I have the gold and I experience the problem of desiring what color I don’t have. While the gold great I think the while looks great as well. So hard to say.

Like mentioned above I would want the xr colors.
 
Love the silver I chose, not that I see it much because I use an electric blue leather case I had for my x.
 
Kinda wish I went with White as black really shows dust, but I much prefer black. I put a Sena wallet case on it. Grass is always greener on the other side. I'm happy with what I have.

I chose the gold and really like it - although in my process of trying different cases it doesn't show much if at all. I figured, however, if it did end up in a case where the color showed I would have the one I preferred.

For me, the "cased" Xs Max is really not as big of a deal where the color is concerned - I was a MUCH bigger advocate of the space grey 8+ because it gives the illusion of the front facing borders top and bottom disappearing, even in a case. The case is otherwise the color of the phone with every Apple phone I've owned.
 
Went with Gold on my Xs.

I had been going with Space Grey/Black for every iteration of iPhone since the 3G.

The gold looks good and all but wish I would have stuck to the SG, as I've learned I prefer that color. Oh well, that's what next year is for.
