Why does anyone care about color? In all probability it's going to have a cover.
Personally I'm holding out for a purple phone.

Your opinion is not the majority's, either. I would only buy this if the face were black. Notice that all iPhones with black faces were the only ones to sell out last year. What's the most popular color, year over year? Space grey with black face
Nah. This is just refresh stuff. Apple will do a real presentation and press release for new iMacs and stuff in a month or two. At least that is what I keep telling myself.
If its purple then you are gripping it too tightly..."Why does anyone care about color?"
"Personally I'm holding out for a purple phone."
sheesh, chill out...Macs get refreshed in summer/fall...this wasn't a keynote event

Well said
Terrible idea....Never, EVER replace the display on your $900 product with a piece of s**t you get off amazon for $50. you will absolutely regret it. I never understood people who ruin their devices this way just because they want some ugly color on the front. Especially on the 7 and 7+ models, good luck finding the right parts and doing it without screwing it all up.

Front has always been black or white since 2011...why you would expect any different is beyond me. Then they have to stock special red screens in stores for replacement, alter the manufacturing process, etc. its just more logical and efficient
The insistance on the white front kills this phone why can't they do a complete red front or at least black would look better
Well, that is your opinion. I'd say that Red+Black is just... meh. Red+White though, they'll be selling every one of them that they can make.
I think you're both a bit off, given the (PRODUCT)RED iPhone is red because of the association with the HIV/AIDS group. I would assume Apple looked at both black and white screen bezels (and maybe even red) and chose white for a reason. My guess is that the black bezels created a strange black and red look that was off-putting (which is how I would see it).
Now that I realize... they have 3 phones with white fronts and 2 with black. They should've done this with a black front so it's 3 and 3.
Silver Touch ID ring is epic fail. I have never once used a Steve Jobs line but seriously, these would never of gone to production if that ring wasn't red to match the back.

And in turn eventually you cannot trust any of his reviews anymore because he's a non-official official sponsor to all these companies now.

We all have our opinions and it's great that we can voice them here. But regardless of our opinions, they will sell everyone of these they make and like most new colors, they will sell out quickly and there will be a backlog to get one.
My Black Stainless Steel Apple Watch with black band and Jetblack iPhone 7 w/ Red Leather case fully disagree with the color scheme of white on red.
