Why the regret? I’ve mostly had black. 6s was silver and the 12 pro I got blue. I didn’t want purple so it was between black and gold and I’ve never had gold so why not? I’ve Been trying new colors on everything. God the midnight watch and m2 air, got the blue iPad Air as well
There’s only four colors, not much to choose from.
Black is black. There’s nothing to it and nothing interesting about it. It’s a safe color like white. But nobody looks at it says, wow look at that color.
Silver. Yeah. It’s good but what’s not good are the sides scratch easy. People suggest getting some polish and rag to keep it buffed. No thanks
Deep purple. Final judgement when I see it in person but who really wants to rock a purple phone for the foreseeable future. Hey look! It’s Billy with his clown phone.
So by default I fell on Gold. It’s elegant, looks premium, and the sides use a special nano coating that makes it the most durable of the bunch. Joz, talked about this when Gold debut on the 12 pro max
