I returned my XS Max for reasons and went in with the intention of getting the blue XR. Ended up with 128gb Coral. In some light it looks more orange and in some it looks more pink, but it just looks awesome. Picked up one of the Apple clear cases for it and really digging it. Look, I LOVED the OLED display on the XS Max. The blacks and infinite contrast were awesome but folks this Liquid Retina LCD is pretty farking amazing in itself. The size of the XR is just right.

Went with black.. was tempted by red.
 
Which case did you get? Does it add a lot of additional bulk to the phone? If I got one it would be the Otterbox Symmetry and I am wondering if it would make it a lot thicker.

That is the Spigen Liquid Air. Very simple but nice. Not ultra-thin but not bulky. I don’t like bulky cases. I would normally use the Apple silicone case but that is not available.

Got a new iPhone XR for work

I think I’m going to swap it (red XR) for a black one. I just like the stealth look and I use my phones w/o cases

Red is beautiful though. Absolutely beautiful aluminum colour
 
Black. It's going to be in a black protective case. (Pelican Shield, made of Kevlar.) So I figured I'd maintain the color scheme although I'm not one iota interested in the elegance/style of the thing, it's a tool not an object of fantasy or desire.
 
Started with preordered Black 64gb & found (Product) Red 128gb @ T-mobile store today so did Jump1 upgrade.
Finding Red 128 is lucky find in T stores so had to go for it.
For protection I’m using Spigen Ultra Hybrid- Clear Back/Matte Black https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07GHQX532/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_ah.gCbVXSA9P8

Lock screen wallpaper I put together is icing on cake

I was pretty sure I was going to get a yellow, or blue version, but now I've seen red it's also a big contender. I think yellow will be more unique, but it's a hard decision!

Yellow looks really good in person. Tried talking 1 of my kids into getting it but they wouldn’t bite. Wife almost traded her coral for it though lol

I'm thinking red will look the best in my dark blue caudable sheath cover. But other than that I still have my doubts. Yellow pops up every time once I think I've made up my mind, so I may go yellow and just get the apple clear case for it. I love the caudable sheath cover though.
 
The XR is just so ugly compared to the XS. I wanted to get my gf I ne for Christmas but she doesn’t like the design at all (cheap compared to XS) and it also is just to big for her hands.

WTF was Apple thinking? Why do I have to pay a 300 premium the get a smaller phone?

Love my yellow XR but I'd pay 300 more to have it SE-sized... :D
 
I went with black and I do not regret my decision! It hides the bezels really good with the exterior belt of the phone. It looks like a window.
