I love some of the comments how people are starting to like the plastic phone, without even seeing it in person.

Anyone else uses plastic and I've read it labeled "cheap" and "crap" here.

The iPhone is premium, aluminium and glass are premium...blah blah blah.

Bunch of hypocrites!

:rolleyes:
 
but. . . new colors!!! (which will be hidden within a protective case within moments of purchase)
 
Apple will never make a plastic phone.
I know. I've heard it said on these forums so many times again and again.
Plastic is junk, they will never use such a material and diminish their quality image.

;)

...still trying to find one single person who posted "plastic is junk" back then and now posts "plastic is great".

Other than that: cute anecdotal story...
 
Really? Do you realize the customer base from the 90's that will be interested in this? It will out sell Black and White 2-1 among upper middle age women (Think Money), and other groups. Very classy, very "Hip". Just watch. ;)

Im not judging it as a failure. Im just pointing out that my hardware (walkman and VHS-recorder) was champagnecolored in the 90's. Im pretty sure the chinese will but it! But I wont :cool:

Stop crying, cute is in. #getrekt

Lots of stories about the appearance of these new phones. So how likely is it that either or both of these phones will be universal models as opposed to carrier specific? Is that even possible yet, or do the chips and antennas for that still not exist?




Sure, in the USA. But if it's still selling big in asia, why not make it for asia? Personally I think the graphite is gorgeous, I'd pick that over the black or white. And I sure hope there's a fairly neutral color for the 5c.

Call me crazy, but I honestly think that color will go over well in China.

"We took color-novation... and gave it something more flowing off the tongue. Something so unique, it could only be from Apple. We call it 'Chromovation.'"
