It looks a little bit different!

tbh I just always hated the term ‘space grey’. Space isn’t grey, for a start.

So even if it is the same shade of graphite but it’s finally just called ‘graphite’ then I’m good with that! 😂

Thank you! I thought it was just me. Space is BLACK - not grey. Lol

Yikes, that blue is hideous (on the 12 standard). It's like they just cranked up the blue slider on an RGB color scale and called it a day. Have you seen the "red" one too? A lot of good those $6k reference monitors have done...
 
The blue looks pretty good here.

Absolutely!!! 🤤🤤🤤

I reckon in normal lighting it’ll look exactly like that, most of the other videos must be editing their videos, adding special effects or using some really strong studio lights to make it look a different shade of blue.
 
This’ll be my first year getting a color (12 Pro Pacific Blue). I’ve always been a space gray guy but just loved the look of the blue. It’s subtle thankfully.

Officially back on team 12 Blue...

I also got the 12 Blue, I agree it looks weird on some pictures but it also looks very good on most pictures, so I'm sure it will look just fine in my hands. But once again that's all a matter of personal taste and the Pro Blue is also gorgeous.

Is this going to be the new petty squabble and elitist snobbery POV for the next 12 months on Mac Rumours I wonder?

‘Your blue iPhone looks like a toy and is disgusting nah nah nah nah nah’...

I’m assuming most contributors are adults here so let’s enjoy the new phones together eh?
Was just going to say the same thing, lets try and behave like adults here...
 
Graphite is a safe bet as well as popular
I'd rather have a bright case and the colour of the phone itself not to clash.

Have ordered, but not received, a teal case and I think graphite will go fine with that - on the little bits that are visible.
 
I recall how people went nuts for the midnight green last year when it first came out, also gold for the iphone XS. The hype dies so fast.
 
recently had my XS Max fixed and when I took my phone out of the case, I realized I had no idea what color it was. looked white.
