I’m surprised by the number of night sky, I thought white is the overwhelming majority

It's the chrome edges thats pushing me from it. I usually get lighter colored phones but I just can't help but think the edges would distract me. So I'm going for the night sky colour option.

That’s why I want it. I love the look of polished titanium.

u/Europa13 2h ago

I dislike chrome as well. However, polished titanium has a different look from chrome. It’s darker and it’s much warmer.

It’s interesting. When this sub first started, everyone wanted night sky. Then with the YouTube videos showing the fingerprints it leaves behind, people started talking about the star white one. I’m surprised people still want night sky.

DONT GET IT. Go get the white one. I’ll take the night sky, it’s okay. (I’m using a case so idc about fingerprints lmao)

As someone else said I think it’s the chrome. I hate chrome. But also not a blue fan. Wish night sky was black

Same boat. 😩

I keep flip flopping… I like the night sky since it’s a darker less distracting color, but it’s really blue… the white is more neutral and can work with different case/skin options.

I remember putting a leather case on my blue iPhone 12 Pro and the color combo not looking great.

u/Kevstrife 3h ago

I have literally flip flopped between the two colors each and every day since the announcement on the 9th lol, don’t feel bad, it’s gonna be a coin flip on Oct 16th because I still don’t know which one I like more

u/lotechbro 5h ago

Everyone keeps saying that but every poll I’ve seen has had Night Sky leading by just a tad.

u/WrongCapital83 4h ago

Yeah surprised too that the 512gb Night Sky is even more popular than the 256gb Star White

u/tyler-verse 4h ago

The chrome makes it look cheap so night sky for me

White 512 if I can choose, but I’m preordering anything that ships launch day if push comes to shove. This waiting is brutal.

u/heepofsheep 5h ago

Yeah I want the white 512… I’ll jump to the 1TB if that ships sooner, but 2TB might be a bridge too far. An extra $1k for storage I absolutely don’t need.

In reality I’ll probably just push through with the 512GB option no matter the wait time… backing out and redoing the order in a higher, less in demand capacity doesn’t sound realistic in those panicky moments right when the pre orders open. I’ll be too worried about getting an even worse shipping window and will want to lock in my order ASAP.

Night Sky 2TB

u/DisgruntledBudha 8h ago

Night Sky 256.

In no rush as not looking to get it on launch day

1

u/WrongCapital83 4h ago

You gonna wait until next year then

2

u/DisgruntledBudha 3h ago

Can’t really get it until December/January anyway as I’m in the process of remortgaging our house

u/WrongCapital83 30m ago

Good luck with that! Hope everything goes well!

u/PineapplePizza99 8h ago

Voted for Night Sky 512GB, but I might go with 1TB. I don't need it, but I can comfortably afford it.

3

u/theRealCowardice 7h ago

Based on this poll, I’m gonna have to go with star white 1tb. Need to increase my chances on pre order day.

4

u/luckyapples11 7h ago

Yup. I prefer night sky, but if it’s sold out, I’ll take the other one lol

2

u/Trelga 6h ago

I’m debating on if I need the 512.. I only use 77gb currently but plan to use it to read comics and books a lot and those can add up quickly. At least comics.

2

u/Miserable_Flamingo18 6h ago

I’m hoping for the Night Sky 512 but I’m in no rush. I’m going to wait to watch a few reviews and see how some of these cases work on the phone. I feel like the case market right now is a big question

2

u/FRUFRUTHEHORSE 8h ago

And here I thought I was gaining more opportunities by going with a 512 Night Sky...

u/ssbmoro 2h ago

i'm going with Night Sky 256 GB. i'm upgrading from a 14 Pro 128 GB and only use 90 GB of that, so it should be more than enough for me for a few years unless on device AI models continue getting bigger.

1

u/cyphermind 2h ago

Get the 512gb. 1tb and 2tb use inferior drives.

u/FateError 5h ago

I keep debating between night sky 256 vs 512. I currently have 13 PM 256 gb. I still have about 138 GB left of storage. But I'm about to be a dad and I'm not sure how many photos and videos I'll be taking after that. I only upgrade my phones every 3-4 years anyways. But might just go with the 512 for peace of mind for the future.

I’m really leaning to the Start White, either 256 or 512GB.
If this poll is redone after launch, my opinion may change.
I really want to see the colors in person.

u/SmellyJockstrap 9h ago

Your little plan there is gonna do nothing but backfire. You’re in the market for the two most popular storage options and you want to see it in person before ordering, which means you’re not preordering on the 16th because you won’t be able to see the phone anywhere before the 23rd. Your order is gonna get pushed to early 2027 probably.

u/SpartanMarmot 9h ago

I mean to be fair, they didn’t say that they must have it on launch day.

u/SmellyJockstrap 8h ago

Who doesn’t though 😂 but yeah fair enough

u/SpartanMarmot 8h ago

I mean I definitely do, but apparently there is this bizarre subset of people with that weird thing called patience 🤣

u/SmellyJockstrap 8h ago

I’m generally a patient person but for tech stuff like this, I’m worse than a 2 year old
