What color are you getting?

I was just in the Apple Store and can report that the Natural does indeed have a champagne tint. It’s there and not as subtle as some have suggested. However, it’s not always visible depending on the light. In one display it was pronounced and in another much less so. Which is why some of the videos have been contradictory. Bottom line is that if you don’t like champagne color, don’t get this model. Also the Blue is very nice, more blue than the MacBook Air but not much more so. I’m sticking with Black which seemed the same as 14 Pro.
Thanks for the info. Pre ordered black (which arrived this morning) but was worried I'd regret not getting Natural. But if there's any hint of champagne/gold, I'd pass.

Lighting does play such a big factor in these phones (not that this is anything new with the Pro series). In my basement where I have bright daylight/colder lighting, the 15 Black looks almost the same as my 13 Space Grey. But elsewhere with warmer lighting, its a significantly darker black.
 
According to the site that shows stock, the one colour that is not selling well in my area is Blue. At least in the Greater Toronto Area. All other colours are pretty much sold out in all sizes.

Guess they are Maple Leafs fans?
Absolutely! Same situation basically in all GTA stores.

Odd, I’ve had the natural in hand since 10am and have not seen a champagne tint at all…. I’m getting more silver and light gray
 
Just picked up my White 15 Pro, and I’m in love! It reminds me so much of my first iPhone, the 4S! The Titanium frame is stunning and I appreciate with the lighter finishes you can really see the brushed texture and fingerprints and oils have been a non-issue for me.

I just came back from the Apple Store. Couldn’t decide between the White and the Natural Titanium. Natural Titanium looks grey (light grey) to me, but it’s a neutral grey color which is a good thing because it should match with everything.
 
I ordered a white PM 256GB first white phone since the iPhone 5 and I’m rewarded with a November 6th ship date 😐 I preordered on launch day. Patiently waiting…. In store availability is non existent for white.

Yes, that's so funny. I saw a friend's natural outside and there was NO champagne. Just gray. Maybe the lighting int he Apple Store?

Mine showed hints of champagne/starlight?
But I have my benq desk light set to a warm color temp.

Back then I went for the Black. 15 PM will be my first white iPhone, I’m sure will look nicely with AirPods and white gimbal!
 
For anyone still unsure about black, it looks the same as the 14 Pro but with lighter sides

I'll add my agreement to this; I just got back from the Apple Store and anyone who says Natural isn't warm/champagne colored is insane. Maybe it's the lighting in there, but I found it very pronounced, to the extent that I don't see how anyone could mistake it for a neutral gray color. If they'd called it "Starlight" I think it would be perfectly named. Really solidified my decision to go White this year.

It's been confirmed numerous times by youtubers and folks who have seen it in person that its a gray/silver tone and no yellow/gold at all in person. Dan Barbera who does the videos for macrumors even confirmed it in this very thread.
I confirmed with my own eyes that it does have a warm tint to it. I tried all different kinds of lighting angles inside and outside, and I actually don’t like it very much. The white might look better. But for now, I’m trying out the blue.

Weird though -- a friend got the natural and we were looking at it outside and there was NO warm tint. It was the same color as my Ultra.
