17 Pro 256GB Cosmic Orange.

Because I upgrade every year, I always choose the newest color from that specific year. Otherwise I don’t see any difference. 😅

I've gone with silver/white for the last few years and prefer the Pro over the Pro Max (tried it for a year and had to downsize.) I think I'm going to start doing the yearly color as well.
 
I like how go big and go orange show strong correlation. I’m doing the 17 Pro, this exquisite colorway combo. If it’s good enough for Michelangelo and Master Chief! Also screams Coleman Chic, which I love.

If white vans with Apple Logos and 'free iPhone' drove around the streets this week, so many people would get nabbed by the HTRs.
 
I recall a year ago when I expressed my wish for Apple to release an orange iPhone Pro, as it was my favorite color. The rumors began circulating, and I was thrilled that it was finally happening.

However, when I saw the new unibody design with its ugly glass patch, I was completely disappointed. I frequently change phone cases, and I believe that not all colors complement an orange phone. In contrast, white / silver are the most universally appealing options in this regard.

While orange may be bold and intriguing, I anticipate that it will become monotonous and exhausting after a few months. Therefore, I believe that the most versatile, simple, and elegant choice is silver.

Additionally, I consider that any potential scratches or dents could reveal the original (silver) color of the unibody frame.

Blue looks best for that. Darkest. Oled screens. You want a dark border.
 
Gonna get the normal 17 in black. Cannot justify any of the other models tbh. Coming from a 14 pro with a dying battery.
 
I struggle to find how the color of your phone can be such words as "monotonous and exhausting". It's just a phone color. In a week you won't even remember which color you bought.
 
Trading my 16 Pro for 17 Pro navy. Silver is my 2nd choice. I just don't care for the the look of the cases on the orange iPhone given the cutout for the camera is so prominent this year.
 
Well this poll seemed to be right.

Cosmic orange pro max is the hot model this year, delivery dates dipping into October.
 
Getting the 17 pro max in silver. NO idea when I will get it since it was my company that say they put in the order. Probably end of october sometime :D

I had similar thoughts and discussions with an interior designer. They led me away from making my kitchen olive green saying that such colors are getting boring after some time. I find that in my case the same happens with phones when I get a device that’s of an unusual color (sierra blue, midnight green, etc.). Like I mentioned earlier - I change phone cases a lot so I pay attention to the color combinations.
 
17 Pro Max in Cosmic Orange (I wouldn’t even consider the other two colors if orange wasn’t available).

Haven’t ordered a case yet—I want a clear one, but Apple’s clear case this year is the ugliest I’ve ever seen. So I’ll wait for others.

You know the 3rd party case makers are loving that Apple case. What a blunder!

They did that weird patch thing because the Apple logo is lower and a regular circle wouldn’t line up properly. Looking at 3rd party clear cases with MagSafe, it’s obvious they’re struggling : 😂🤣🥴

That said, I don’t use a MagSafe charger, so I’m just looking for a pure clear case, probably Ringke Fusion—same as I had for my 16 Pro Max last year.which will look nice and clean.
