People show off their jewelry, gadgets, cars in order to make them feel important all the time. There’s nothing wrong with it, and certainly doesn’t warrant professional’s advice.

They all have a broken self-image. And it doesn’t make them important. And they’re secretly mocked.

seems as though it’s a popular color maybe because people are tired of space grey and silver. A nice matte jet black might be nice

OD green is like tattoos. After the newness wears off it gets worse with age and wear and tear. We're going to see a lot of one week, two week, etc. ownership regret threads. Or worse, past return period and have to live with it while still making payments.

During preorder, I had hard time deciding whether I should get my all-time favorite White or the new color option. My decision to get the Green was mostly swayed by the power of the hype machine, and the obvious fact that it’s a new color. But after seeing the pics, I regret not trusting my gut. In pics, Green looks so dull and unrecognizable. It almost appears as dirty faded black. Zero personality. On White, the three cameras would’ve stood out much more prominently. I’m at a loss and honestly, ready to cry... :(
If it makes you feel any better, the feedback I've seen is that photos don't do the color justice. It supposedly looks much better in-person and is quite classy overall.

Are you Psychic?
 
Please could you stop criticizing and judging a person simply because they are not like you?

My debate right now is whether I should order Silver and just accept the fact that I’ll have to wait longer. Or should I just live with dull Green?
I think you should just wait until you receive it to make that decision. You may end up loving it and your anxiety was all for nothing. If not, return it for the Silver. For me, I had to make the decision of getting our roof repaired or the new iPhone color. I chose the roof. Now, to choose the color of the roof. I wonder what's the most hyped roof color? :p Good luck!

Midnight Green > Jet Black > whatever Space Gray has been and is now lmao > other colors

Edit: actually, jet black and space gray are reversible because jet black would get micro abrasions absolutely everywhere.

I would wait until I have it in my hand for a couple of days and then make a decision. I would not keep it if I wasn't 100% happy with it.
