Most of my iPhones have been black, graphite or space grey. My 14PM is "silver", which usually looks more like white. I wish it was more silver but I still love it.
Got a tip for us?

Space black is my go to color with a case you can't see the colors anyway.
I pre-ordered and used a Space Black for a few months and switched to a Deep Purple about a month ago. Got bored of it.
got a Gold iPhone 13 Pro Max and lowkey get jealous every time I see a Sierra Blue iPhone. its such a nice color.
Gold is nice but probably not going to choose it again when the 15 Pro Max/Ultra drops.

I was happy with my choice until I found out my dad has exactly the same phone in exactly the same colour. Now I wish I had gotten the silver (I have the deep purple)
I posted yesterday that my 14PM is "silver" and I wish it was more silver than white. I think it would look better if it was silver like my S8 silver aluminum watch. Of course that's just my opinion.
I have gotten Silver/White for every iPhone and got it again. Love it.
Went for space black with my 14 pro, pretty much everyone I consulted before buying told me to try something else, but stuck with my gut and very happy with it. It would take a lot for me to switch from black/gray phones at this point.
I got a silver 13 pro. Hated it, just found the color boring. Never had a silver iPhone. Always had gold, product red or space gray. This year even though I don’t need to upgrade I can’t wait to change the color so I’m getting a gold 15 pro max or whatever they will call it. Keeping it for 3 years!
I think I’m going crazy.
I ordered the 14 Pro in purple from my carrier a few short months back and I was shocked how too heavy by the lens it was. For reference I use my 13 mini as daily driver.
Just got 14 Pro in Space Black (work) and noticed no top heaviness I had before.
Edit: 49 days later the 14 Pro went back to carrier or to another schmo at work.
I see no benefit to Dynamic island : like 3D Touch it’ll last for another iteration of the iPhone Pro and 15 iPhone’s only to be phased out with under display FaceID system. The idea is nice but it offer minimal interaction between background apps and notifications.
ProRes and ProRAW are great features but with poorly treated lenses (lens flare a MAJOR issue on iPhones for the last 3yrs) you cannot have any light source into or bouncing at an angle into the camera lens. Great feature that I wished my 13 mini had but in not at a loss without it - in no shutterbug.
Larger battery - still marred with super slow charging. Rapid charging has been proven for a few years now by many manufacturers and battery life and health no longer an issue or resolved by more than 1 cell - something the iPhone Pro’s already use. So why held back!? I feel sorry for iPhone Pro Max users (1.42hrs over lightning for a full charge yikes)!
Weight and fingerprint of the stainless steel frame. Not ideal and contrary to what most people “feel” it being “premium” I must ask - other than the iPhone 5C when ever did any other iPhone not feel “premium” as a entire product!? I don’t recall the 5/5S/SE 2016 feeling less than premium nor the iPhone 7 Plus or 8 as all previous top end iPhones used an aluminum alloy.
Maybe I’m just minimalistic in my product use and not falling for needless materials that increase the price of a product without adding anything to its feature set. Next up is Titanium and if Apple cheats out with titanium freckles or very thin layer lien the beloved Tibook, well at least it’s not a flip or a fold smartphone where hinges would snap crackle and pop. Each to their own.
I think my next iPhone will be the 13 mini’s faithful replacement or may need to carefully look elsewhere.
Apple needs to up their game with iOS and hardware feature set (MagSafe charging, wired charging speeds, data transfer, and choice of case materials - used just to validate price increases needlessly).

Space Black. Midnight silicone case since day one. Probably won’t take it off for three years. So… I have no idea if I regret it!
So I bought a space black 14 pro recently, I’m having a bit of doubt only because I had an XS space grey for 4 and a half years previously and I’m bored of it. I’m now considering returning it for the silver just for something different. Not sure what to do. I have a forest green leather case to be honest it looks great with either space black or silver.
Anyone else had a bit of regret after buying?

I bought space black and I’m a bit bored of it too, did you make a loss having to sell it?
I, like many people, do consider the color when buying an iPhone. But it’s kinda silly cause I always keep my iPhone in a case to protect it, so the color is really pointless. 😂
Deep Purple team!! No regrets. Apple did a great job with the purple shade. Not too light. Not to dark. Right in the middle.
The Sierra Blue was something else. Still iconic.
I sold it for $875, so yeah, I did take a little loss! Sucks but I’m happier with the purple!
Like my 14PM Deep Purple but loved the Pacific Blue on my 12PM
Yeah, they really hit the mark with Deep Purple - it's out of stock here in the UK, so I had to go with black (I put it in a case anyway). A friend of mine in the US had to wait a month to get hers too! Must be popular.
