Really? Ooh that changes things!!
I've always been a fan of many of the (product) red items, and although I think a black one would look better, the white one looks awesome. Wasn't planning on it but, I decided to pick one up. It is restoring from back up now. Made it easier, knowing a friend of mine was willing to buy my JetBlack, so it wasn't as much of a hit to the pocket.
So the 7+ looks great, I went with the 7 because I already have a black 7+.
I may have to go exchange for the RED 7+ the 7 is too small for me. I also have a lot of cases for the 7+...
I think the black battery case covers almost the entire red portion of the phone, better to get a clear case. They did not have the product RED battery case in the store when I was there, otherwise I would have likely gotten that.

Looks very nice, but I wish they would have gave a black screen option. Hopefully they will in the future.
Thats exactly what I did, I wanted to go for a smaller phone to be my personal one so I got the 7 but its just too small and the speakers on it are just not as good (either as loud or as clear) as the 7 plus. Just waiting on the replacement to come this week

So will you keep both devices?
Which version?
If operating system, at the time of release it had 10.2.1 on it. I bought two of them and they both came with 10.2.1
10.3 was released earlier today and will likely come on all newer ones.
I think the red is lovely but the white face makes it look dorky. If they offer the 8+ in red with a black face I'll take it in a heart beat.
For everyone wishing it the Red iPhone had a Black face instead of white (me included), the best justification I heard/read was the fact that the slowest moving SKU from the iPhone colors are the silver ones, so it made sense to use the White front and the silver ring (both could be from the Silver units before they're assembled).
That would definitely lower the cost since the pieces are already available.
I haven't seen this mentioned previously in this thread, so I hope I'm not repeating anything.
And here's a tip, I've seen people cover their Red iPhone with a Black E2E Screen protector and a clear case with Black edges and apart from the white home button, the phone looked good!
Can't show you what I'm talking about as it was on a retailer's Snapchat account.

Also, Apple has always used Red and White for Product Red. Look back at all of the Product Red iPods, they all had white click wheels, faces, etc.
Returned the 7. A new Red 7 plus will be with me at the weekend.
The red for product red is too bright for black. Even on the phone of the guy who swapped jet black and product red faces - the red was too bright to be nice with the black.
Went to the AS yesterday, I was disappointed by the iPhone RED.
It looks really good in picture, but I didn't like the color once I saw it in person. It was full of fingerprints as usual, even the Jet Black looks bad for that reason when you see it in AS, but nevertheless it wasn't the kind of RED I was expecting.
The RED cover looks better in comparison
