I voted Cosmic Orange but color preference also depends on the design, so I can't really pick just one.

For the Pro, I’d go with 100% Comic Orange – the other two I wouldn’t consider, even with a substantial discount.🙂

For Air, I’d pick Cloud White first, followed by Sky Blue or Light Gold.

For the basic model, I haven’t really thought about it, to be honest, but maybe Lavender or Sage.
 
Honestly out of all of them, I think the best looking one in terms of design, material and color would be the White Air. I just don't know that I could do the one camera and the one speaker. If it was 6.9" I think the battery would almose be a non-issue.

It really bums me out that they did not offer a black pro especially since they went back to aluminum. I loved the black non-pro sides over the pro ones, when they offered it. So I was happy to go back to aluminum for the pro.

I got the orange because I always go with the pro max and I’m so happy to finally have some real color, but this year my favorite option is sage.

I think these were the GOAT colorways for iPhone over the years. Time will tell for the new releases but I have a feeling the orange one will be remembered from this year.

4/4s White
5 Slate
7+ Jet Black
X Silver
12PM Pacific Blue
14PM Deep Purple
17PM Cosmic Orange

Pacific Blue followed closely by Deep Purple have been my favourite finishes/colours by far. The Gold XS was also very nice with the colour of the glass back. I would have loved to see a true copper colour in stainless steel or even polished titanium.

I started out with the orange with the iPhone Pro Max, but a few days later, I decided to cancel that order and went with the dark blue. I gave it some serious thought, going back-and-forth with my final decision and I thought the orange was a little bit too much over the top for me at least.

As soon as I opened the box and saw that nice, bright, true orange color (Pro 512), it was love at first sight. Often Apple has muted colors. For people like me who love color, this is the ticket. If you don’t like them bold and bright, this one will not be your cup of tea. 😍
