Is there anyone else who is deciding the color based on comments, and not the actual video? 😅

I have a 2017 15" in silver, and looking to add the new 16" in space gray, but after seeing them compared, I think silver is the way to go again. It's just more sharp and sleek.

Has been looking for this type of comparison for space grey and silver. Thanks for this!

Dude you changed the names of the colours! You gave me a mini heart attract because I just ordered a space grey! The silver one is lighter and space grey is darkerr

[eddiemurphy]

I bought the silver one. Since it' s traditional. The space grey scratches are more noticeable. But maybe it's prettier the space grey. At the end of the day, it's exactly the same computer. That's the point.

Space grey looks good for iPhone's, for MacBook I think silver is the best color..it looks refreshing, while space grey feels gloomy.

Sleek shots! Rare to see the Macbook shot without the reviewers' usual studio lights :)

Silver looks classier and more premium.
I’ve had space grey Macbook 12” and before than silver Macbook Pro.

[labelletraveler]

You have the color labeled incorrectly. The lighter one is silver and the darker one is space gray.

Your video is so nice! I bought mine in space grey and I love it so much! NO REGRETS! 🙂🙂

I have the space gray version of an intel MBA, I think silver looks so sick!

[Jonsmama]

The space gray is more modern looking, but the silver just looks fresh and a little like the older MacBooks. I choose the silver. However, I am concerned that scratches will show up on the silver more than the space gray. Hopefully not. I'm enjoying the bright look around the the black keyboard.

I've always had silver MacBooks, but I bought my MacBook Air M1 second-hand so didn't have a choice with it being space grey. I wasn't sure at first, but I think I prefer it to silver - the keyboard doesn't stand out so much, and it's got a subtler look that makes it less conspicuous.

Mine is stunning eye catching the gold colour which I own then followed by Silver which gives you a fresh and brighter look and then a space grey which 98 percent people go with :) would have been nice if you had included gold colour too in this comparison video

[jamesrimes]

Had space grey for 2 years, so silver seems clean and nice now.
( those who choose space grey be careful! Even tho it doesn't scratch as easily as silver, BUT it gets discolorated where u rest your palms. )

the silver is more the flagship looking apple color

[glui]

Don’t make my mistake and get the gold color. It’s not a yellowish gold. More like a copper and rose gold. Still love my M1 Air tho

[DukeBX]

At first glance, it looks like it’s Space Gray vs Beige.

[SUDIRISING]

Thanks for the video. Was confused earlier 😁

Silver is just my favorite, no actual reason I just like it, I have a white one but barely use it lol
