Seriously? The Ghz races were a joke. 750p is obvious and substandard by any objectional data. Next thing I know you are probably are going to tell me that you can't tell the difference between 1080p and 4K.
I went from the regular 6 to the 6s Plus last year, and I can tell a difference. That difference is incredibly minor, in my opinion, and I would have no problem going back to the 4.7" size if I had to.
It doesn't go away when you are still using the same 720p crappy displays for many years in a row. Not making proper upgrades to display just for the sake of greed.
Everyone wants the newest color. Remember gold from the 5S? Me either.. or Rose Gold last year?
Oh, so you're the other person that ordered the silver model? Sweet.
What sucks is I woke up at 2am to order it, and it remained available for same day delivery until noon on Saturday.
Anyone else just happy that the black model is finally getting some love after years of only having white options? Judging by this news seems everyone else agrees. Finally, two nice looking black options.
anyone know why the jet black is less popular but the quantities are lower How are the manufactured? (i.e. the painting process different then the black)
1000nits display on the next iPhone. Ceramic on the iPhone Pro.
Silver has been the longest running option in the iPhone line, might get replaced next year. No point producing a single digit seller. Gold may run for another year or two if still in the single digits. White iPhone and a Black iPhone option next year to commemorate the 10 year anniversary.

Why wouldn't it be news? It's interesting to see where the demographic falls for specific categories and colors. Others seem to find the article useful. Perhaps you should visit other 'News' sites that you consider 'News.'
If you used the latest Samsung phones, resolution is not the thing I've noticed. That's just marketing hype. It's the deep blacks thanks to the emissive OLED. The contrast ratio makes the UI really pop.
I had the LG G4 which has a much sharper display than either of the new phones. Still, though, the calibration isn't nearly as good and more pixels murder your battery.
With normal usage, I didn't notice any improvement with sharpness.
I'm very surprised by how unpopular silver is. It's the most attractive white-front phone by leaps and bounds, IMO.
Resolution is a huge difference. OLED is also incredible. My LG65" 2016 4K Curved OLED literally puts my 4K projector to shame with true blacks. If you cannot tell the difference between 750p, 1080p, and 4K well that's a good thing for your wallet at a minimum . Personally I'd have my eyes examined but different strokes for different folks.
Then again, that would be a good differentiation for a special edition 10th anniversary iPhone.
Yeah, the keynote went through it. There's an extra polish step after anodization-- I think that's the reason it's only available on the more expensive models. Each step costs money.
