I got a white and gold one earlier this year but I think my favorite might be the silver which may be the least sold color. Apple might release a glossy white iPhone for the tenth anniversary.

I loved my gold iPhone 6 plus but my favorite color is pink ( yeah I said it) so I got rose gold.

I think the nicest looking colors for the iPhone 7 are matte black or jet black. Everything blends
The iPhone 7 + I bought, however, was rose gold. My SE is space grey and so is this iPad Air 2
that I'm typing on right now.

Couple that with an Apple black leather case and you have a phone you can't find half the time! :D

Excellent point.

Silver works best with the majority of case colors.

White is right, although once you go black.....

And once you use that line, you have to put it away for the rest of your life because, rest assured, everyone else has heard it so often that it's no longer even remotely funny.

I'm not a female so chose black. ;)

Do you have a white car? Do you have a white motorcycle? Do you have anything white? Just asking because White is not gender specific! That was a pretty stereo typical answer you gave there, fairly lame.

I went black for my phone for the first time since the iPhone 5. I prefer black over white for the front, but I've never liked the space grey backs. Now that the iphone is a proper black again, I'm back to black

Prove it.



Show us your bike!

I don't have any photos of it. I had it exactly 1 month before someone stole it in Florida. All my photos of it were on an Huawei Ascend that ended up with a corrupt memory card. I've since learned to back up my memory cards. This was over I think 7 years ago? Anyways this was the type of bike it was.

P.S I didn't realize it was easy to steal a motorcycle but I've never bought one since. I didn't get full coverage on it like an idiot. Even if it's only a couple thousand bucks, get full coverage. Seriously.


Still have the car though.

Nice Kwacker. As someone who lives in Florida let me say,....if it's not bolted to the ground, you need insurance for it! Maybe it's time for a replacement? Something in a nice H2 maybe?

I live in Texas now and I've been considering getting another Ninja. However, I got my car in '13 so I might pay that off first so I can get a higher end bike instead of paying cash for some older model. It's been a long time since my license expired and being back in my home state, lots of work to do to get it back. Plus sold all my gear before I left Florida.

Next is to convince my fiancee I can be responsible with it. He told me if we'd been together when I had my bike back then, he'd have stolen it himself. I'm one of those adrenaline junkies once I get started. Haha.

P.S Sorry guys, off topic here. On topic note: Black is really hard to keep scratch free. I'm wondering if black box turtle wax would work as good on my 7+ as it does my car if it gets scratched.

I don't think you should put car polish on it. Maybe just buff it with a nice microfiber cloth. The scratches in it probably won't go away but it will still shine.

Someone actually mentioned this liquid used on microscratches that develop on eye glasses. I had read a post once where someone used that on a 5c with some success.

Pure wax won't necessarily harm the phone, but will make it INCREDIBLY slippery!

If the wax has a cutting compound, as many do, don't put it anywhere near your phone. They often work by removing a thin layer of paint - and will probably just put more scratches in.

If I had my way, I'd have a silver back and black front - like the original iPhone. I'm hoping whatever the next phone is, they offer that combo - as a homage to the original.

In the 4 series, I loved the white. the 5 was slate, because it looked badass. Since the move to space grey I avoided black and had white. Liked that as well. Now have the 7 in Jet Black, and black does look sleeker / smaller. The HUGE bezels look like less of a problem too... I think black suits the 6 / 7 design better.

i had a white iphone 5 and i i went with SG for the 6 and MB for the 7. I like how the screen content blends in. I didnt like how that screen has that black border when watching stuff on the white

IPhone 4 - black
4s - white
5s - black
6plus - black
6 - white
6s - black
Se - white
7plus - white

I do think I just like the white better. White front and matte black back would be neat.

I have a white front - though I really want a black front for my next phone (assuming it still has bezels anyway which maybe it won't). I bought a gold phone because it was all they had at the time and I wish I had a black one.
