anyone else notice that? i wish it's more like mid-night blue, looks to me it's similar to the mid-night green of the 11 pro but with hue of blue added. am i seeing it correctly?

No you’re not. It has to be seen in real life, and these aren’t out yet.
You’re color blind, it’s totally blue. How are you seeing it as green
You really think those two look similar? 😧

He was talking about the 12 Pro Pacific Blue color, not the blue of the iPhone 12.
Still it doesn't matter. They need to be seen in real life and not on product photos. I would assume it will match the Apple Watch blue finish, which is not green at all.

I already posted the right screenshot. But there is still a major difference (for me, at least). 🙂
I totally agree, and I made an illustrstion to show this:
The color in the middle is what we should be getting. It would be coherent with the elegant and luxury color of the 11 pro.
Instead we get something in between blue and green, shown on the left, and it saddens me.
The 12 pro pacific blue is a color that doesnt know what it wants to be, its a bad design choice and quite unlike Apple. It feels like they rushed it and produced a color that doesnt...punch.. its ambiguous.

This. You'll need to see it in person.
The product photos for the midnight green pro looked very green - however, in person the green had way more of a black tint to it (and looked way better than the product photos IMHO).
The product images look to be a shade of teal. IRL these could look completely different.
I think coupled with the stainless steel this model will look very jewel-like.

Pro model will not match the Apple Watch 6 color... The Navy 12 Max will.
They both look blue to me.
Not sure which one i would prefer... i think they are both pretty nice.
But the green one didn't look green enough for me. lol
You mean just the iPhone 12 6.1 non pro? That isn't called Max per Apple.com lol
From the pics I saw, I prefer the blue of the 12 over the pacific blue.
I was thinking this whole topic was nonsense before seeing the comparison you made. Now it cant be unseen and it really seems little dull and greenish. 🤯
Yea agreed, the blue on the 12 looks more blue. I still plan on getting the 12 Pro max so I guess Pacific Blue it is.
I like it. It's Pacific Blue after all, which implies an ocean like color, which is somewhere between blue and green.
It absolutely reminds me of BMW's Long Beach Blue paint (launch colorway on the BMW M2, if I recall). Blue, but with a definite tint of green. Also fits the "Pacific" narrative. Amazing color in person, which I'm sure PB will be as well. Not really my favorite (Estoril Blue guy myself) but I will go with PB this iteration as it seems to be a limited colorway. 12 Pro (6.1"), PB.

luxury color? They sell these at Walmart....
boo hoo the color isn’t what you would call “pacific blue”.
#bluegate blue iPhones matter
It’s not green. Guess some haven’t seen the Pacific Ocean from the Cali point of view? The Pacific Blue is an ocean blue and it’s lovely. I’m patiently waiting for November 6th to order.
I thought we were getting a Navy Blue, but remember, everything is a rumor until the truth is revealed.
I like the blue on the non-Pro 12 as well and would have purchased if the color was made for the Pro.

I liked the copper-bronze on the XS Max I had better. The copper-bronze is why I bought it - it wasn’t really gold-gold. I’m partial to silver over gold. Most of my jewelry is white gold and silver.
If you really like Gold, you should go for it. It’s probably the truest Gold they have brought out to date.
Blue is my favorite color, partly why I haven’t changed my avatar in years. I have been waiting for YEARS for Apple to have a blue phone. So I’m really biased and will tell you to get Pacific Blue even if Gold is your favorite color, lol
