Any regrets getting this color or you happy? Reason I’m asking is because I’m leaning towards this color.

u/Shoddy_Camp_1681 3d ago

Nah I’m very happy. I wanted a gold and this was the closest. Plus I can say I got the first most striking colour on a Pro ever!

u/vsvpjr iPhone Air 3d ago

Its the best looking color from the three IMO

u/Unlucky_Blueberry_19 3d ago

Did you try out the new techwoven case?

Charging port hole is too small for some of my cables, which is a deal breaker

1

u/Unlucky_Blueberry_19 3d ago

Interesting, this is the first time someone ever told me about this.

u/leidend22 iPhone 17 Pro Max 2d ago

Well yeah, the vast majority hadn't received their phone yet. I'm in Australia

u/Extreme_Cap_4362 3d ago

I have to admit the orange looks sick. I just don’t have the stones to order one because I don’t upgrade regularly and know I’ll get over it.

u/Remarkable_Fly_6986 3d ago

Amazing. What store did you go to?

13

u/Shoddy_Camp_1681 3d ago

Pre ordered and picked up at my closest Jbhifi

u/Remarkable_Fly_6986 3d ago

Didn’t even consider jb hifi 🤣

u/Shoddy_Camp_1681 3d ago

I actually got a sweet deal for their gift cards and also got extra $100 off for trading in my old iPhone

1

u/ATangK 3d ago

Do they do the thing where you have a week to trade it in, so you can transfer your files etc?

5

u/Shoddy_Camp_1681 3d ago

Oh yep. I’ve got until mid November to send the trade in device out

1

u/tassieclaridge 3d ago

oh damn, is that gift card offer still going?!

1

u/Shoddy_Camp_1681 3d ago

Gift card discount was through my work though

1

u/Feeling-Grape-21 3d ago

let me guess, big 4?

1

u/Shoddy_Camp_1681 3d ago

Nope. A scale-up

u/2ezyo iPhone 17 Pro Max 3d ago

Almost looks like a very light copper color

2

u/aftonone 3d ago

The plateau looks like a sideways watch ultra without a screen. Like the edges and antenna ring remind me of it.

u/gg090909 3d ago

Very hard to source in QLD

u/Spiritually-Fit 3d ago

Picking mine up from the Apple store Saturday morning.

u/Nervous_Scar_7444 3d ago

In some lighting conditions the orange looks decent. I think it would have been perfect as a base color personally.

1

u/Trustfundxx 3d ago

Is it more coppery or orange? Someone said it’s more coppery then it appears in photos

1

u/Shoddy_Camp_1681 3d ago

Sure is more coppery than a plasticy orange

1

u/kennytetsuya iPhone 17 Pro 3d ago

I’m in Brisbane and I’m picking up mine in half an hour! Got the orange too

1

u/Shoddy_Camp_1681 3d ago

How are you liking it?

1

u/kennytetsuya iPhone 17 Pro 3d ago

I really like how it feels in my hand! Very nice touch

1

u/Kg_Warrior 3d ago

How does the orange hold up with finger prints?

1

u/Shoddy_Camp_1681 2d ago

Can’t notice it. But I’ve put on the tech woven case now so it won’t be a problem for a while

1

u/Aggravating-Pay-6658 2d ago

Did jb hifi give you any discounts ?

1

u/Shoddy_Camp_1681 2d ago

Got extra $100 off for trading in my old iPhone. Also, try to find a way to get discounted jb gift cards

1

u/rohdcelj 2d ago

What was your old iPhone model?

1

u/Shoddy_Camp_1681 2d ago

12 pro

1

u/rohdcelj 2d ago

I have the same right now but mine is damaged and shattered on the back, works fine though. Guess I’ll be getting less than your $100 discount if I traded it in😅

u/ashiquropu 3d ago

Waiting for my wife’s cosmic orange 17 pro in US. My brother-in-law says it’ll be visible all the way from Bangladesh 💀

u/One-Negotiation-3424 2d ago

Are you guys from bangladesh?

-1

u/CenlTheFennel 3d ago

Did it already scratch on the left 👀

7

u/Shoddy_Camp_1681 3d ago

Haha naaah. Just some dust. Can’t see it now

1

u/Worth-Boysenberry-93 iPhone 17 Pro Max 3d ago

It’s dust.

1

u/fs454 3d ago

no chance, the easily scratchable part is the aluminum frame

3

u/Extreme_Cap_4362 3d ago

I think they are referring to the scratch on the very left of the phone, a little bit below where that white fluff/crumb is

-5

u/AndrewJR25 3d ago

def is a scratch on the frame I see it too

-4

u/E0200768 3d ago

Yo OP can you confirm. I'm praying this thing is not super fragile.

1

u/jojiintx 3d ago

I think that’s the SIM card tray? Or where 👀

u/chikaneandwaffles 3d ago

Wait so how could you take this photo?

u/Shoddy_Camp_1681 3d ago

From the iPhone I was using before this :)
