I've had my XS Max in gold for coming up to 5 years, I'm rather sick of the colour and really liked the sierra blue and pacific blue of past years, so think I'll finally have the blue iPhone I've wanted for years!
 
Another Starlight mention @ 1:31.

"Natural Titanium kind of looks like a combo between copper and silver, kind of more similar to Starlight."


Now I'm leaning towards White or Blue. Don't want to risk getting Natural with a potential Starlight color and the wallpaper seems to imply that.

Update:

After watching a ton of videos (several not even in my language), i’ve decided on natural titanium. I love the slight champagne gold it has in certain angles plus it will probably be the most durable since it’s basically raw titanium and scratches will be the least visable

Scratches are a big concern for me and I don’t know how titanium fares (i heard it scratches easier?), so the dark colors were immediately out (black titanium and blue titanium) so all that’s left is white and natural

and not going to lie, white titanium sides kinda look like aluminum so natural titanium is the one

that was my thought process on the color
 
What color is everyone going with for their 15 Pro/Pro Max? I’m torn between natural titanium and blue.
I’m also torn between natural and blue. I like the blue but am concerned about scratches.

I have heard that despite the hardness of titanium, the oxidation coating on Titanium can scratch off easily.

I know there are numerous barely perceptible scratches on my ultra. If it wasn’t natural titanium, I think they would be much more noticeable. That has me leaning slightly towards natural.

Of course if I have a case on it, the color is a moot point. So I may just end up going blue and if it proves to scratch easily, just put a clear case on it.

But I’m really hoping to be able to go without case on this phone…

Would love to hear other’s opinions on how they are thinking about this.

I think this might backfire on you a bit as natural titanium still mares up if scratched well enough. The PVD coating might offer a bit of additional protection.

Made a mistake with my vote. I'm going natural for sure. Love the way it looks on my AWU.
 
Been buying Black or Gray every year for as long as I remember. Think I'm going natural this time.
 
White vs natural:

Apple is using a coating on the colors that helps prevent scratches. Similar to the coating on the previous stainless steel phones. It's the natural that may scratch more, if it's not coated.

I think the natural is my favorite, but I'm going with blue as I want the DLC type coating.
 
In this shot Natural Titanium looks pretty similar to the Apple Watch Ultra imo.
