Out of the two right there I would take the graphite. But fortunately or unfortunately I chose the gold and will be picking that up in three days. I’ll be your guinea pig and detail my experience of it. But of course by then the reviews and unboxings will be out
 
Going with Pacific Blue. I think it looks amazing..Apple nailed it. Not crazy about the regular 12 blue but the lighter blue to me looks beautiful.

Graphite looks nice but when I saw the Pacific Blue the choice was easy.
 
Pacific Blue looks so good imo compared to the somewhat boring Graphite , also its nice to have the new color to feel like you got a completely new phone in addition to the new design.

I’ve been going with silver the past few years since the 6 so I’m leaning towards the Pacific Blue this year for a change.

From the photos I’ve seen, the new gold looks absolutely incredible. It was one of my choices but I opted for the blue in the end for the pro max.

I still would love to see pictures of the silver pro. I’m picking up a graphite as silver wasn’t available anywhere for in-store reservations. I’m happy about graphite, but part of me still wonders about the silver. Lol.
 
Hmmm I had thought graphite because for some reason I had the 12's bright blue in my mind (way to loud). But now seeing the real color next to the graphite....I think I'll go for the PB.
 
I managed to get PB for pickup based on Apple's renders but think Graphite is way nicer. What do you reckon the chances of swapping it instore on the day are?
 
I think the Graphite is nicer than Pacific Blue however that Silver Pro looks pretty darn good in the one review video. Probably come down to Graphite and Silver for me for the Pro Max.

Ok; now that I’m seeing real life pictures and videos the Pacific blue looks a lot better than renders. And the 12 blue looks a lot worse; like a kiddy cartoon blue. Honestly the graphite looks incredible.
