I was on the fence originally about my choice but now that the Deep Purple has arrived I’m very pleased with it.
 
I got the 14 PM in purple. In some lights I don't like it so much. Today I will receive a space black from Amazon. Maybe I will return the purple...
 
It’s good your buyers remorse is gone. I was used to seeing the Sierra blue which was lighter

I would love to go caseless as well but annoy me if I got one scratch. Glad to hear ur scratch on the 14 is only minor. After a while, u will forget it’s there.

So... I just went to the Apple Store and returned the purple! They barely scrutinised the device, didn't see the tiny chip, and now I've ordered the gold and will just have to wait 4 weeks.

Phew. Existential crisis over.

I really couldn’t decide between purple and space black. I’ve had silver for the past 3 years and love it, but fancied a change. After pre ordering both, purple got return the next day. In some lights it looked great, but others it was just meh, and the band was a bit too pink for me. So space black it is for me and a nice change from silver, liking the less in your face look of the cameras.
For me, the ultimate would be a silver band with black back, but doubt that’ll ever happen.
They need a space silver, that would be the ultimate phone. The only which has ever put me off the silver is the back, the apple logo doesn’t look
As good.
