Apple Tested AirPods in Bright Colors

[iSayuSay]

These look so cheap… the only reason the current cases look somewhat premium is because they’re white.

Depends on the color. This bright pink and yellow does stand out. Pastel and darker shades would look a lot nicer.

Matte or glossy coat affects that too

Apple seem to be allergic to colour

sometimes...

When we said we wanted AirPods in colors, we weren’t talking about the case.

It was right after Steves death. He probably said no to make multiple versions and right after he died Apple exclusives were free to do it and tried to introduce us to the Samsungfication of Apple. They thought more iPhones more sales. Luckily it doesn’t work otherwise we would had the iPhone A 5GS and the iPhone M35 J.

Whilst the c was a big misstep, I do think it’s right that the iPhone now has multiple product lines, as the customer base is so large.

It’s the iPhone before and after the regular iPhone that always seems to be problematic.

Looking at android phones, even low to mid range phones tend to have ‘pro max’ sized screens.

I’d expect the regular iPhone to soon creep up to 6.5 & the air is the first sign of where the regular iPhone will kinda sorta head to (probably not quite as thin and with more cameras & speakers).

The e phone I’d expect to increasingly resemble the regular iPhone and turn into Apple’s ‘compact’ phone (if 6.1-3 inch screens can be considered small, which in today’s overall smartphone market, they can).

The pro phones seem to be perfectly specced and designed for market need (ok the new pro 17 body design is an acquired taste).

And if rumours are to be believed, if the pro max isn’t big - or expensive - enough for you, the fold is coming.

Might look decent with a matte finish, but glossy it looks very cheap.

Well, the iPhone 5c also looked cheap so these look on par with that.

I guess Apple isn't just about squeezing every cent out of us after all. Otherwise, they could have offered AirPods in various cool colors and consumers would have eaten it up.

Looks like plastic chew toys and extremely ugly. I am happy they kept them white.

I would love to see an clear plastic AirPods (Pro) case though. Or just a clear lid.

Seems like a colored case, not Airpod.

I hated the white plastic AirPods with the heat of a thousand suns...until I dropped one under the seat on an airplane. Then I appreciated the brilliance of using white plastic on these easily dropped items. Function over form.
