Space Gray iPhone 5s Most Popular Amid Supply Constraints, Blue Leads for iPhone 5c

Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't the yellow 5C one of the first to be sold out online? Interesting that it's the least popular among 5Cs.
gold version was so limited because Apple based its numbers reading MacRumors forums, where a lot of trendy and fancy members bashed gold as a creepy, vulgar and very non-elegant choice.

The blue is the best looking 5C. I would prefer a nice green or red one, but 5C green and red versions are not nice.
When all they have to report is popular colors, you know these latest iPhone's are questionable "upgrades" LOL.
But the flip side of the story is it gives Apple room to look good if they get serious and create a stunning new iPhone 6.

Did they just not produce enough white and gold phones this time? If they were all produced equally and grey was most popular, it would be the one seeing constraints...

When I went to my carrier on launch day to get the iPhone 5S they said that the only color they have left is the Silver one. I still don't have the model I want, Space Gray with 64GB. So much for Space Gray is most in stock.
Considering the 5C statistics I think it is quite sad how far gender stereotypes go. Oh and I'm wondering why there's no red iPhone 5C?

Apparently seems so on the Guys side as well. Yet, I have not seen one guy carrying a pink 5c. Wonder how they pull these numbers as there are probably a lot of guys buying for their girl.
A few years ago, Apple released some iPods that were really nice bright colors. I hope they do that next year with the iPhone. Those colors had to have been hand picked by Steve Jobs.
I love orange, it's my favourite colour (mind you I don't know if I'd want a phone in it although the In-Win D frame PC case in orange looks pretty damn nice).

They were of course absolutely correct. It's cheap, chavvy, too try hard and just downright ugly and quite frankly the only person who should be seen with one is Vicky Pollard, space grey looks far nicer.
I know the camp is very small... but in person, the 5C in 'pink' looks decent. More of a lightish red really.
The yellow is more pastel than the other colors and I'm a bit surprised it didn't garner more votes/purchases.

A 5C with a white face would be a no-brainer for me. I have a white 4 and like the colour but I don't like the look of any of the 5Cs with the black face. Would happily snap up an all white example, or maybe even consider some of the other colours which I think would work well with the white face while they look pretty nasty with the black.
Red is reserved for their PRODUCT RED products, which are primarily fundraising devices.
They probably wanted to get the phone launched before releasing a red one (which would probably be quite popular and would generate a lot of funding for RED).
Either that or they license it to certain products only.
Like many have said 5S data is inaccurate. I think many more would have chosen the Gold model rather than the White.
My thoughts on the 5C, yellow was a bad choice for Apple to make. If they really wanted to sell more 5C's they should have went with basic Black. If not Black, Orange is a better choice than Yellow.

Space Gray is not the most popular one, it is most abundant.
Thank you!! Just like the "more popular" black iPhone 4 ...that was only available in black the first 9 months
