Amazing that samedung and other did not 'see' this coming!
Watch for future 'innovation' in color from the me-too samedung wanabees.
Also, I wonder if those other phone-mee-too-look-at-mee-also will make fun of customers preference for gold phones...

Well goes to show, people will buy just about anything... Can't wait to see a gold iPhone with ios7 and one of those crystal cases! The dumbing down of apple by iOS continues
Why the gruff? Why the insult? Why criticize people's preference of colors on a device you're not purchasing for them?

Please don't try to convince me that this hasn't changed. Back in the days, there were question marks behind uncertain rumors like there should be and no question marks behind facts like "Apple released XY today". This was good and didn't take away any "page hit attention" (at least for me) for which this was changed I am afraid... Nowadays, you maybe get a question mark behind the headline of a real wild, sketchy rumor which otherwise would be ridiculous to post anyway. (And before you exhume one or two exceptions: They prove the rule.) In fact, I sometimes read a headline now and it sounds so convincingly written like a fact news on first sight that only after reading the whole thing I have to discover that there is NOTHING backing it up. But as mentioned, I guess that's the effect MacRumors is going after. I liked this better a few years ago.

99% of the people here just can't seem to admit they were wrong about the gold colored iphone. and they keep shoving their opinions down others throats.
one month ago:
gold colored iphone is ugly, not going to sell
now that it sells well:
gold colored iphone is for grandma's and their daughters
or everything apple does will sell
as long as your own opinion is justified by your own stupid logic
grow up
the gold colored iphone is very nicely done, get over it.

During launch weekend, demand is pretty much always great than supply, so it must be the former.
According to a salesman at Regent St (London), they got the same number of 5S on every color but being about the 100th on the queue (seeing the champagne going out of stock way before my turn), I would say they didn't got any more than 100 units of the champagne.
The silver went out of stock a little bit past me.

People, it said ships in 1-3 days! Not delivered. From midnight on that's what it said. I read it more closely than a few of you.
Yes because liking a certain color makes one a "wannabe". Please go back to school.
as long as you can see the difference between 'I think it's sh**'
and 'Apple has failed' or 'no one will buy it'
The three steps to success:
1. Have a look at what the MacRumors forum members think is best for Apple.
2. Do the exact opposite.
3. WIN!

Haha this made me laugh. Remember when the rumor was the screen size was going to increase? They were all upset saying "no! 3.5 is the perfect size any bigger wont work!" The masses go with whatever group says, nothing new.
