I never owned a white bezel iOS/iPadOS product when they existed, but now I miss them terribly. They looked really good. The problem for me was not blending in with the black bars around video content.
I think that's only an issue for long-form content (i.e. not YouTube videos), and I usually watch that in the dark, where that's not a problem. I also used to watch a lot of 4:3 content, for which the original iPad form factor is ideal. My silver/white iPad mini 5 still gets the most use, both for its portability and that I find the white bezels make for a lighter mood and reduce the visual footprint of the device.

I got my last iPad in space gray since I thought it went better with the black Magic Keyboard. I regretted it because I really wanted silver. I’ve been worn out of all the black colors in recent years. So I’m definitely getting silver this time. Plus, then my iPad, MacBook, iPhone, and Apple Watch will all be about the same color.

But the example above wasn't really space BLACK, rather space grey.
Hope they release Air in space black, I will buy it!

Between those two definitely silver, but part of me is hoping for a blue variant to match my iPhone 12 and iMac. Not a massive fan of the blues that they use on the iPad Air and the iPhone 15 though.

Over the years, I’ve grown to love silver on my iPad Pros. My first iPad Pro, the 2018 11”, was indeed the silver one, and I just loved. Thats why I’ve chosen Silver on the Poll. Then I bought this awesome M2 11” iPad Pro in Space Grey for the sake of change, and I’d prefer to go back to Silver, because Space Grey looks like just a tad darker Silver and, from some angles, it looks similar to Silver… So it kinda is between silver and the darker Space Grey from other devices such as the iPad 9, which I also have.

With that being said, I don’t know where OP took that render from, but if the new OLED iPad Pro is available on a Space Black like that one, I’ll probably go with the black. But I still have a soft spot for Silver so maybe I’ll go back to that color in the future.

BTW: if Apple offers the new iPad Pro in midnight, THAT’S the color i’ll be getting.
