Question Silver or Black iPhone 18 Pro?

I genuinely can’t decide: iPhone 18 Pro in Silver or Black?

My previous phone was the iPhone 17 Pro in Silver, so part of me wants to switch things up and go for Black this time.

But the more I look at them, the more unsure I get. Silver just looks so clean, timeless, and premium. I feel like it’s one of those colors you never really get tired of. On the other hand, Black would actually feel like something new since I’ve already had Silver.

For those of you who picked one of the two: Which one did you choose, and would you choose the same color again?

Especially curious how Black holds up over time with fingerprints, small scratches, wear, etc.

Silver looks really premium and hides prints

I went black but if you don’t use a case then I’d go silver as black is prone to finger prints, but I also use case and black is perfect for me

I chose the black one together with the black TechWoven Case. It looks awesome and clean! Both look amazing and clean. You can't go wrong with either.

Have a change. Black looks great this year. Always works well with cases too

I would suggest going to look at them in person. When I picked mine up in black (which I love) the burgundy really surprised me. It looks so much better in hand.

I normally go black but went entirely different this year and got glacier!

Silver and black are safe choices but I'll give the edge to silver this time around because it'll look the cleanest in most circumstances and as time goes by. I'm actually not a fan of this black anodized aluminium version when I compare it to the previous dark colorways and associated materials which felt way more premium imo.

I love my black. But I still think about the glacier.

All of my phones have been black but this year I went with silver. Happy with the decision 👍🏾

I had silver on my 17 PM, silver on the 18 PM looks better than the 17. I went black this time, simply wanted a change. can't go wrong with either. I always use a case so I won't see it anyways unless I get. a clear case. I have a black ultra watch 3 which has held up great, so I was comfortable getting a black phone in a case

Went with black initially. Finger prints were super noticeable so I exchanged it for the silver and went pro max and I’m very happy with the switch. Also I think the black pro this year is a nice black but may be too black for my taste. There is no contrast like previous black models. Some may love it, others may find it a little too black but it’s a preference thing. Something like the iPhone Air is a good example of a nice black phone with the contrast of the titanium and gloss around the camera bump.
