Silver 256GB 8 Plus. I'll look at the Gold in-store and possibly change my mind. Didn't want to take the risk without seeing if the gold was too pink.

Silver looks like a throwback to the white 4s, which I loved.

Man that silver 8 plus looks gorgeous. Most
videos I’ve seen make it look white. With the glass it looks amazing.
Which one are you all getting?

This phone is a sleeper hit. While most early adopters are raving about the latest style I believe this will be the best iteration of the current form factor. Plus it has the same gpu, A11 chip and same 3 gb of ram as the X but having to push fewer pixels and less tech for the face ID it’s actually going to be the fasted and most powerful of all the iPhones, including the X.
I completely agree. Something about going back to the glass back is sexy. I wanted the silver but I'm getting the space grey since I'm reserving the silver for the X. Completely tactical move lol.

Chose space grey as I easy get distracted by the black line around the screen on the white front models. But I would have preferred one of the white models as I think they go with more accessories.

I have to say, I was going to go for the gold but seeing this thread really has me interested in the silver. I love that white back

Silver w Charcoal Grey leather case. I've run a gold + Saddle Brown leather case for years. Like others, the silver w glass kind of reminds me of a 4S.

Space Gray 8 256GB.
It's the only one with black bezels, and I just am not a fan of white bezels. I think there's a reason why televisions went with black bezels as the norm instead of white, and I feel the same way.
The color is going to get hidden with a Vaja Agenda case anyway :) ... which is also black.

I got a white/silver 8+. I alternate pretty much every year, iPhone 4 was black, 5S was white, 6 - 7 was black. its time for a silver again.

Silver 8 Plus.

I've had a white iPhone since the 4.
Yeah, I’ve had black for a few years. I’m tired of black. I want some brightness and color. I’m tired of the dreariness of black electronics. I’m looking forward to the silver plus with some of the nice colored Apple silicone cases. The cobalt and product red come to mind. I wish they made a nice green case.
