Half of the commenters are missing that the article picture doesn't depict the actual colors.

Shocking…..the first comment was about a poop brown color. 🤦♂️

I like the brown colour, I am sure it will be much much nicer in hand. Anyways, how often do you look at the back of your phone?

Nah, getting rid of the purple from the 14 Pro was. I never thought I would like a purple phone but that one was absolutely stunning.

I'm surprised they didn't make the Golden Turd version a special edition. 🤣
A bit underwhelming. Not a shake up.
I was talking to my neighbor who had her 82 year old father out on a boat recently, barely able to shuffle along, asking if he’s okay moving, or needed a place to sit… ‘No, I’m fine, I’ll be okay’. Five seconds later, mumbling ‘Oh no. Oh geez… oh no.’
‘Are… are you okay? Did you forget something?’
‘I just **** myself’
Now, I don’t know if that brown iPhone evokes ‘shake up’, but there will be moments in our lives where a similar panic will set in, met with adrenaline.
It’s a weird angle Apple, but there you go… now throw a diaper, err, underwear, no… case on that phone and no one will be able to tell.

So they replaced a nice colour ( 🔵 ) with 💩 ...

Eh, not pretty. Looks like I’m going for a white pro max… or whatever color will get to me on release day. I use cases anyway but I’d be open to a clear case, white looks very nice.
You'll need to glow up those boring 70s-like colors for sure... 🤣
the safe hands choices of white and black I somewhat get, but instead of some zest and vibrant colors, it's boring grey and "golden brown" 💩

Gold looks impressive? Looks like a brown turd.

I can't believe the same company that made colorful iMacs is also limiting their most expensive phones to different shades of monochrome and doo-doo. 😩

If I upgrade this year, I might go with the brown. If it's too "gold", probably not, but if it's more of a brown/bronze, I'm sure it will look great.
I'll put a case on the phone though so color doesn't matter.

Come on! Give us some cool colours! Deep green or really dark almost black brown.

The Washington Post recently published a story on how trendy brown is right now. Maybe Apple is on to something.
This is paywalled, but I will post the link for anyone who has a subscription.

It’s anti-tech. It’s quiet luxury. It’s brown, and it’s everywhere.
Brown is enjoying a rare moment as the current color du jour.

Great, 3 shades that lack any color at all and a shade that literally looks like crap.

it deserves to be pointed out that there is no Avocado Green or Harvest Gold.
