I am buying both the 5c and 5s. 

 

5s - I will be Gold.  I have had the black 4/4s and white 5. I decided I wanted to be different this time. I have a feeling though everyone else who is buying one will be buying the gold as well :P

 

5c - I will be getting the Green.

Well, this is the iPhone/iOS forum...

That doesn't mean we all want the 5s? You assume my response was a troll one, because my lack of details, i'll give you that :P But no... the 5s and 5c are just average if you ask me... IMO never buy into half cycles unless you have to  eg :

 

 

3G Buy

3Gs  no buy

4 Buy

4s No buy

5 Buy

5s No Buy

 

As pointed out on neowins editorial, this whole generation including the 5c, is just to force people to buy the 5s. So no, apple has lost a client until maybe the iPhone 6.

Ugh, you guys really want a gold iPhone? That's so gaudy to me. I don't mind the silver/white as much, but I'd probably still go with the black.

 

I really am doing it because its different. I have had both black and white in the past and just want something different. 

 

Who cares about color.  Seems everyone I know with an iPhone has a cover on it anyway.  Or any phone for that matter.  Color just seems like a non issue/preference to me.

 

I agree. I will be buying a case at the same time I get the phone so its not like you will see the color.. The only thing you can see will be the gold ring around the home button.

Well, when people often go to set their phones down, they're usually black. That's actually why I bought a white one, to be honest.

 

The gold looks pretty nice to me, but it just depends if you're the kind of person that can pull it off. (just like guys who can wear purple or pink, and not be looked at funny)

I wear purple, my Vikings jersey... that makes people look at me even more funny though. :laugh:

 

I mean, the gold isn't TERRIBLE, and it is different. It just kinda seems cheesy to me. I guess I'd have to see one in person to know how I really felt though.

Thanks I should have done that in the fist place!

 

As for color, I think it does matter because starting with the 5 myself and many others starting using the phone with no case at all. I'll probably go silver as the gold doesn't really do it for me.

I'm more an every-other-cycle upgrade guy myself. I got a 5 as soon as I was eligible, and 6 (it should be 6 anyway) should be ready when I'm next up.

 

If I were getting a 5S, I'd get the black. Why bother with a special color when I'm just gonna put a Lifeproof case on it anyway? And if I were to leave my service, I'd splurge on a non-contract iPhone and take it to MetroPCS.

I assume everyone in this forum at least has their eyes on the 5s. What color are you looking to get?

You would assume wrong, However, if it was the only phone in the world and i didn't have a choice i would go with the Gray one.

    • Valve finally confirms Steam Machine prices, starts at $1049 for 512GB option

      By matthiew · Posted

      Huh? You're delusional calling the Steam Deck dead. It is so successful that it has sold out multiple times. Even after the price hike this year it sold out again with 24 hours of being back in stock. The demand is real and has not died down even after four years.
