Of course these are based on the rumours but lets have a chat anyway in these lockdown days.

Leakers say Navy will replace Midnight green and I think silver and space grey might become white and black on the Pro models hopefully.

What will you pick this time? and what did you have before?

I currently have an iPhone 11 Pro in Space grey, so I should be moving to a light colour this year to mix it up unless Navy is stunning.

Before that...

iPhone X in Silver (Only iPhone I've ever kept for 2 years due to the limp Xs)
iPhone 7 in Jet black (stunning and probably my favourite)
iPhone 6s in Gold (what was I thinking with those white lines🤮)
iPhone 6 in Space grey
iPhone 5s in Gold
iPhone 5 in black and Slate (amazing and 2nd favourite)
iPhone 4s in white
iPhone 4 in black (legendary design)
iPhone 3GS in black
iPhone 3G in white

Always want a red iPhone. Hopefully the shade of red of the 12 is more like the XR red indetad of the 11 red.
I also hope the iPhone 12 is offered in a shade of red that's like the XR red or iPhone 8 red. I don't like how the new iPhone SE 2020 Product Red looks, it's too cherry like.

Although if Apple offers the iPhone 12 in the same silver/white as the new iPhone SE 2020, then I'll most likely get that colour as it looks so clean and nice!

I won't be upgrading till the 2021 iPhone 12S/13 or whatever, since I've barely had this phone. But I'd go for one of the pro series and I'd take a risk and go for the navy blue.
 
Going for the 12 pro max in gold this year. I have the silver 11 pro max so I’ll switch it up to gold unless there is a nice pink or purple for the pro max.
 
iPhone 3G-white
iPhone 3GS-black
iPhone 4-Black
iPhone 5-Silver
iPhone 6 Plus-Gold
iPhone 7 Plus-Jet Black
iPhone X-Silver
iPhone XS Max-Gold
iPhone 11 Pro Max-Midnight Green

For the next gen Maybe the rumored Navy, or return to Silver Or Space Grey decisions, decisions.
 
iPhone 3GS - black
iPhone 4 - black
iPhone 5 - silver
iPhone 6plus - silver
iPhone - 6s gold
iPhone 7 - silver
iPhone 8 - space grey
iPhone XS - space grey
iPhone 11 Pro - silver

I’m waiting to see them to make up my mind wether I want to upgrade or not ( thinking the 5.4” iPhone 12 if I do) probably have to settle for black or white if navy isn’t available in that version

I’m still holding out hope that 5.4” might be available in Pro, but if not I’m not sure since it seems non-flagship hues have been in flux since the XR.
 
iPhone 3G - Black
2010-2012 my dark period of Android LOL
iPhone 5 - Slate Black (favorite color ever!!)
iPhone 5S - Silver (first and last white beveled phone )
iPhone 6+ - Space Gray
iPhone 6S + - Space Gray
iPhone 7 - Jet Black
iPhone X - Space Gray
iPhone X🅂 Max - Gold
iPhone 11 - (PRODUCT)RED
iPhone 11 Pro Max - Space Gray

I returned the iPhone 11 cause the space gray on the pro Max really reminded me of the slate black of the iPhone 5 but for the iPhone 12 I really want red.
 
The ‘midnight green‘ was a stellar color by Apple. The rumor was earlier that we might see some variant of blue for the 12. I’ve always been a supporter of slate/black colors with space gray/matte black/jet black over the years. I definitely want something more ‘exclusive’ in terms of a color Apple probably offer again, kind of like they did with ‘rose gold, jet black and maybe midnight green’ may not return for 2020.
 
Probably going for a black iPhone 12 (5.4" version )
I currently have and gold iPhone 6 and gold iPad Pro 9.7, so tired about gold already!

Navy no matter what, for certain. It's a no-brainer and will retain resale value more than the others. Certainly going to be a long waitlist on that phone! Fortunately I also happen to enjoy that color. Green was a bit too bogey-like for my tastes.

Up until recently I was pretty sure that I was going to get the dark blue variant of the Pro. However, I saw some mock ups of the space gray/black iPhone and it looked really nice. If they make a truly black phone with a true black back and sides (Reminiscent of the iPhone 5) I may spring for that over the blue.

I’ve never been a huge fan of all of these gray variance. Due to my color blindness, the space gray iPhone 8 and iPhone X actually looked brown.
 
Silver/white. I’ve always gone with the white option since the 4s and, for some bizarre reason, I went with Midnight Green last year. Never again. Dark phones are just not for me. Plus the silver 11 Pro looks so good with that matte finish. Hopefully that continues to be the same look for the 12 Pro.
