iPhone 12 Pro What’s your choice? Personally can’t wait for my graphite.

The colors look different in almost every photo, perhaps my eyes are just aging lol! That grey color looks awfully light to me......so does the blue.
I’m sure they will look great in person either way, once it’s in our hands we will LOVE it instantly lol.

I had changed my mind from graphite to blue, but now I'm back at graphite again as I think it goes well with the natural Ti Apple Watch....which I happened to order with the graphite milanese loop band....
I have the same combo! Going with the Cyprus Green case and watch band to complement.
I was at the Apple Store earlier today looking at all the 12 Pros. Those of you that ordered Graphite will be very happy. It’s very nice and in my opinion, handles fingerprints the best despite reports of the gold performing best in this regard. Almost made me regret my pacific blue which also arrived this morning.
I can't decide between silver, graphite and blue! I was set on graphite for a more classic look but having seen unboxing videos I am swaying towards silver again. Had white for the last couple of phones and silver is close to this so I kind of want to have a change but am struggling to decide! Pacific blue is another option for a totally different choice. Ordering today so need to decide asap!
I’m with you. I wanted silver, but it wasn’t available for reservations, so I chose graphite. Then after watching reviews and videos, I was happy with graphite. Now, the store I’m going to has silver in stock, making me second guess everything. Lolol. I’m still leaning towards graphite though.
Exact same spot lol. I cancelled my silver order. Ordered graphite. And now I’m regretting it. Silver looks so clean. I have a in store pick up later today, I hope they allow me to see the silver and exchange it if needed!
Gold looks subtle.. Nice touch with the sides
You can also tell by the camera configuration. The non-Pro only has two cameras on the back, while the Pro has three.
The gold looks more off-white than I expected. I was hoping for it to be more gold. Lol, I like it gaudy I guess. But it’s very nice and will look good in a wide variety of elegant and professional looking leather cases.
That jet black iPhone 7 was hands down my favorite. Minus the horrendous scratches that would occur.
Always have had a white phone. Decided to try the blue this time. Will either love it or hate it. Can always put a case on it if it’s the latter.
That silver is beautiful. I held that and the graphite and once considering the cases, decided on graphite. No regrets! Enjoy the silver tho, such a beauty to look at.
You’ll get a chance to see both when you pick up. If you’re anything like me, once you pick up and set down both, you’ll be in love with the graphite!
I’ve been using my graphite 12 Pro for a day now. It’s one the best “black” colors I’ve ever seen. Wow!
Well in indoor lighting at my house, Pacific Blue does look gray with a hint of blue, sometimes teal. Especially inside a clear case. Without a case it’s more blue. Like a lot of Apple’s pro colors, it’s a bit of a chameleon.
I haven’t really seen it in daylight. It arrived late in the day on Friday and I had to wait until evening to see it. Today, it was so overcast it was like one long twilight. So I don’t know exactly how blue it can get.
That is 100% what happened. I am super happy with the graphite! (And I’ve had silver/white every gen before this...)
Since the first iPhone, all my iPhone has been black/graphite, and this one is no differences 
The 11 Pro in green was the only that I was really dubious, but not blue, it's nice for the first weeks, but graphite is more neutral color.
Grafite is italian for "graphite" (I'm waiting for it, ordered)

Without hesitation, I preordered Pacific Blue based on Apple's product images. After the professional reviews came out I decided to cancel as the PB ranged from a bold deep blue, to a dark navy, to a mirky off-shade grey depending the lighting and I found the overall device just looked much darker than I thought.
As for Graphite vs. Silver, for all but one phone I would always get the "black" option and really wish Apple offered a truly black Pro model for that Darth Vadar look, but as they're still only offering this brown-is (to me) grey offshoot I decided to go with Silver. I don't usually have brighter devices, but the may be a nice change. Plus, the silver edge and black screen a reminiscent of the iPhone 4/4S which were my favorite phones to date.
I dont like the blue band contrast. Wish they stayed with the 11's green. I've seen some videos on the graphite and the pic above does not really do it justice. I am going graphite but may change mind for gold. I am just afraid the gold will disappoint and exchanges in the time of Covid are a PIA. I just dont want to deal with...
Currently have the Graphite which I chose at pre-order as I wasn't sure on the Pacific Blue. Saw the PB in the flesh at the store and the photos don't do it justice. Lovely colour and I'll be returning my Graphite and getting the Pacific Blue when my local Apple store gets some stock.
I orders both to decide. One thing that i’ll say for pac blue is when you look at the phone that thin stainless steel frame looks darker on pac blue that graphite given the way light hits it. The frame on pac blu looks as black as the screen. On graphite its like a stainless steel so you notice it a bit more
