i know different angles and shots but mine looks like this:

whereas my SG rMini and rMB look like this iPhone 6:

All three next to each other, my 6+ stands out
 
I have two grey iPhone 6+ and they are not the same shade of grey. Guess it varies but you images do show two different color temp lighting sources which might have some effect.
 
The two photos have completely different angles and lighting. It plays a major part in the perception of the photographs I think.

Hugely. Tilting the phone just a little bit under light can either make the antenna lines lighter than the space grey metal, or darker.

Strange that people are finding different shades of Space Grey!
 
i know different angles can look different, but having my rMB rMini and 6+ (all SG) next to each other, the 6+ stands out as most different and least SG-y.
 
I'm pretty sure "space grey" is different between different products (5S, 6, iPad, rMB) but I haven't seen any significant variation within the same models. So while your ipad, iPhone and laptop might indeed have different shades, the difference between those photos you posted are almost certainly just lighting/exposure and camera angle.

Fwiw, I wish the iPhone space grey was darker, but what can you do?

Yeah, the iPhone one seems almost closer to silver in a sense (not the silver iPhone, but silver-like as in a more brighter version of gray that what I would expect or at least hope for space gray to be).
