Got the Coral for my sister for Christmas.

She has a similar colored case on her 7 Plus so figured I'd go with the Coral for her.

I bought the black and I really don't like it. It's a fingerprint magnet and it shows dirt and lint more, a whole lot more. I'm going to exchange it for the white. White is sill neutral and it will look good in any case you put it in. I'm not a fan of the Black finish on Apple devices. They scratch, chip, and discolor. I know my OCD will eventually catch up to the Black XR. White will be best for me.

Wound up ordering a blue one, but yellow was a close second. I think the red looks great, but my work iPhone is red so I just wanted something different.

Picked up a Product Red from Verizon last week. Big improvement over my lagging 6. Coral was a very close contender though.

just got a black Xr today

in person the coral really looked cool but to me the black matches the black bezels around the screen the best

I love the red I just got. And while I would love to enjoy the look of the phone, I have to get a case for it, as the phone is so smooth and slick it will slide off a pillow if it's on even just a 5 degree angle, and it even slides off the wireless charger. It's already been on the floor twice (a rug thankfully).

My XR has also slid twice from my desk since I got it last week... luckily the floor is carpeted. I have ordered a clear case which hopefully will be arriving tomorrow.

Every phone I have ever owned has been black or white, so I decided I wanted to mix it up this time. It was between the red and blue for me. In the end, I decided to go blue. I am happy with my choice. Frankly, in a week or two, I probably won't even notice the color.

My old SE is giving up. First started to look for a new SE...as I wanted a new small phone.
But then I started to look at XR, and the red and black are really cool. Probably go for the red.
Will I give up the small phone and embrace a new big phone? I’m very tempting for the 1st time.
Might be about time, too.
As the SE got some water damage of some bad weather. And the XR is waterproof to some extent.
I am biking some in wet weather, so I will be fine with the XR of that reason, right?
Glad to hear that many are caseless, it’s big enough anyway.

I really love the yellow. A less popular color, but it’s beautiful and reminds me of the Nokia’s from the 2012 era.

I went with the RED though because it’s also great looking and it’s good for charity.
I like the yellow back best of all the options, but the golden tone of the aluminum band of the yellow phone is my least favorite of all the colors.

Went with blue, and was very close to choosing the yellow as well!

I purchased an unlocked 64GB black iPhone XR the other day after I played with my coworkers XR. The 720 screen is a non-issue. It looks identical to my iPhone 7 Plus, even if isn’t. I don’t play games or watch videos on my iPhone (I have an iPad Pro for that), so the XR is perfect for me and others like me.

I got the blue because it’s the one Apple seems to be advertising the most.

Wife and I went with red to replace our black iPhone 6’s because Apple donates some of the price of the red XR’s to health research. And we can choose between clear or black cases anyway. Black seems more professional in some settings, the red is a nice colour for a little spice.
