I thought there was an orange one? Would really love an orange iPhone. Missed the chance of getting an orange gadget during the iPod Nano (opted for a yellow one back then).
Blue or red are great too. Seriously, black and silver are boring, and all Chinese phones are now in gold and rose gold too. Huawei is experimenting with gradient of colors and subtle patterns. About time Apple goes colorful again. The red iPhone 8 was slick, time to expand the palette further.

Given Apple's attempts at "rose gold" I wouldn't be surprised if their attempt at a bronze or copper colour comes out to be more of a dirty brown.
I actually liked the Zune, never had one, it was bulky but I like the look of and old radio.
Don't really have an issue with colors. I'm just hoping that they announce dual-sim.
With dual sim, battery life would be terrible considering the battery capacity.
SIM cards are old tech, why Apple don't remove them and use virtual sim cards, this way if your iPhone gets stolen or lost nobody could remove the SIM card to avoid blocking the signal.
Another important thing to stop theft is to let people use their password to shutdown their iPhone and block the airplane mode or any other option if you don't unlock your phone.
With this things stealing and iPhone would be harder.

You have right on the front of your Eyes. Look at the blue sim tray. It is double sided So is the red one (one sim above and one below) Ingenious way!

Excuse me? So carriers like AT&T can lock your eSIM? Hell no. I say NO to virtual SIM until provider locking is OUTLAWED worldwide. Until then, I’ll take a regular SIM slot anytime?

Not really. Dual SIM technology is not something new. You don’t see Android phones having battery issues due to dual SIM. Android phones even support dual VoLTE now.
Separate work and home numbers. Time-disabled work phone number. Priority versus normal phone number. Use a travel SIM while keeping your normal number. Separate contracts for voice and data. Separate international and national call contracts. Burner phone number. Emergency-only contact. Use different providers for better coverage.
Leaked SIM trays even ? lol What's the world coming to.
I do like the color coding
Then we'd be waiting a very long time... Apple didn't wait till all countries accepted Apple pay before rolling it out either.
A service has every right to control its own service...... But like always users demand freedom, and we think that should extend to how a business operates? ya good luck...
Perhaps, in time, that may change, but don't get ya hopes up. I wish we would all have fibre as well everywhere, but even i know that won't happen in 5 years, thanks for our government.

I'm not really into colours anymore. In the past we had front bezels so it was important to pick the front colour you liked most and for me on the 8+ was black after having a few white iPhones. But since iPhone 6 I've always been using my iPhone in a case, so I can only spot a tiny bit of the back close to the camera.
I really like this year's product red and since it has a black front I may have bought it if it was available at day one, but how often would I enjoy the red back?
I think I'll go for a white Xs this time, or a black one if for some reasons the white isn't available. I could even buy a pink one, I don't really care

IMO Apple always struggle with colours. They seem to pick these odd shades, the brown and blue look horrific. The red appears to be the same strong red as the (Red) brand before. The shades of grey are just grey. But I think we can all agree BROWN! Really BROWN, sorry BROWN!!!
Well it would save me carrying two phones around. If you travel between countries and need local SIMs while still being contactable on your “home” SIM. I know about call forwarding but it would be expensive, and free (EU) roaming gets stopped after you’ve been away from your home country for a few weeks. A dual SIM phone is the only upgrade I’m interested in.
Update: this “news article” isn’t a joke. It’s real. When a sim tray ‘exclusive’ becomes an exclusive then you know that people have accepted Apple now ain’t Apple past.
This would’ve been laughed off the page only a few years ago. But now? Come on Tim.
Let’s get those brand new, radically designed iPhones on display in a mere matter of hours and show what your multi-billion, trillion dollar-stuffed R&D departments have conjured up for us this year to justify the cost of ‘em!
Hurrah for New Apple!

Apple is getting worse and worse and worse in aesthetics. Iphone 4,5 reached a level of perfection. Then salesmen, board of directors, investors who wanted to sell to low educated big markets (Asia, Middle East etc) biased the Apple solid aesthetics. I'm never gonna buy this piece of ugliness. I will remain to the last beautiful iphone SE till Apple regain its authenticity, its minimalism, its decision making authority and stops insulting Steve Jobs memory.
