Re: ipad air 2 color
My iPhone 6 is gold and I picked up my Air 2 a couple weeks ago in space gray. While I'm starting getting used to my iPhone's color a few months later, I only got it in gold since my Sprint didn't have space gray in stock when I switched from Version. (I still find it ironic that the gold one was the one in stock and not vice versa.)
Personally, I just like how everything blends in with a black bezel especially when watching movies on it. Maybe I'm a bit OCD, but that's my two cents.
