iPhone 11 Pro The agony of iPhone 11 Pro colour choice

Gold for X and XS Max. I wanted a change. So I went midnight green. I love it. I put a slim gray case on it. I’m good.

You love it so much you got a case that literally covers all the colour? lol
 
Historically I always went space grey / black but I absolutely loved the silver version of the X / XS with the bare steel band.

I went for midnight green and have absolutely no regrets. It’s a beautiful colour.
 
No agony here. Back to space gray after a year of agony with my silver XS. I kept seeing the wife's silver iPhone 7 and thinking how nice it looked so I talked myself into straying from my "space gray 100% of the time" track.

Every time I saw a X/XS in space gray I wanted it more and more. I even tried finding someone on Craigslist/Letgo that would trade even up.
 
I have the gold, it’s stunning, not too yellowy or blingy. In the past I’ve always had space grey iPhones, but I felt like a change. I recommend looking at them in person and then making a decision.

Never understood how people can call silver boring, but then by deduction something like gray or gold is...exciting?

The silver is so clean and modern, not to mention, the sides don't feel like rubber like they do on all the PVD coated phones. Maybe some people like the grip afforded by that, but it feels gross and rubbery in the hand to me. I'll take clean, cold, slick stainless and silver every time.

Different strokes for different folks. Personally I find the silver too close to white, and I’ve always disliked the white iPhones, whether white bezels or white backs.
 
I've seen all of them in store, and they all look great to me. I had the gold for the XS Max and silver for the X, so I went with the green: it looks gray in some light and green in others, so I feel like I have two colors. :)

The Space Gray is a classic look, and I prefer the feel of the PVD coated band over the stainless steel of the silver. I assume that the green has a similar coating because of the color, and it feels the same to me.

Tough call, but the gold looks great in person, and I think you'll be pleased.
 
Well, I didn’t like the gold.

So I’m keeping the Silver and buying a case.

It will kill me next year if they bring out a Product Red version of the Pro.

The gold is beautiful, not brash at all. I would call it a champagne gold.

To me, the silver looks white, and I never liked the white phones.

I’ve always chosen black or gray, but last year I got rose gold (Xs Max) and this year I went with the green. I love it so much I got a clear slim case for it.

Here it is without case, fluorescent lighting in my kitchen. I love how it shifts colors depending on environment. And it looks amazing in direct sun.

What rose gold XS Max? Unless I’m wrong there wasn’t any XS Max in rose gold!
 
Went to the store yesterday and could only find a space gray. The space gray somehow looks better than midnight green. Can't believe it actually. I might trade mine if it's not a hassle.
 
I agree about the green. It mostly looks like a lighter gray. They probably used perfect lighting for the pictures. I still like it though.
 
My last 4 phones have been silver so this time I went with Space Gray. I really like it. I thought about MG but I know I would tire of it after awhile.
 
I know people with the gold and it’s absolutely stunning in person. Only reason I didn’t do gold this year is because all of my Apple stuff is space gray.
 
green looks cool but also looked a bit grey. i got space grey. am happy. no wrong answer here. no need to agonize. get a different color next year. enjoy life nevertheless.
 
I finally switched to silver. After only having SG for years I finally decided for a change. I like the matte finish and the silver sides. Looks great.
