I agree. My wife really liked the red 7+ but hated the white bezels, it really looked awkward, hence she waited to upgrade. If they come up with a X+ Red w/ black bezels, she'll be totally stoked to get that phone.
A Product RED iPhone 8 and 8 Plus are very likely. But a Product RED iPhone X is unlikely, given the high production cost of the iPhone X as it currently stands.
...or with blood, or rage, or warmth, or passion, or love...
Communism is probably the last thing someone would think of in connection with the colour red, unless he‘s stuck in the 1950s.
Are you drunk or have you just arrived from the 1950s via a time machine?
Don't see what the obsession is with red since it's associated with communism. Prefer something that mimics nature like this beetle color transition which is currently the best looking on the market.
Does anyone under 50 and not american even use the word Communism anymore, let alone associate it with a colour ? If anything in western culture red is the colour of sports cars and I dont see Ferrari dropping their classic red sports car anytime soon...
From a non-Western point of view -
"Red is the most powerful of all colors in Indian culture and holds many important meanings. Among them are fear and fire, wealth and power, purity, fertility, seduction, love, and beauty. Red is also representative of a certain time and place in one’s personal life, including when a woman gets married. A married woman can be identified by the red henna on her hands and the red powder, known as sindoor, worn along her hairline.
In South Africa, red is associated with mourning, and the section of red in the country’s flag symbolizes violence and sacrifices that were made during the struggle for independence.
In Thai tradition, each day of the week is assigned a specific color and is linked with a particular God. Red is the color for Sundays, and it’s associated with Surya, a solar God, who was born on this day. Many Thai people pay their respects to Surya by wearing red on his birthday each year.
In Chinese culture, red is traditionally worn on the New Year, as well as during funerals and weddings. It represents celebration and is meant to bring luck, prosperity, happiness, and a long life to the people."
So not a bad colour to be using.
I actually quite like that, is it a skin?Don't see what the obsession is with red since it's associated with communism. Prefer something that mimics nature like this beetle color transition which is currently the best looking on the market.
Wow, flower power and blue Dalmatian! Had forgotten about those colors!Each time I read people saying Apple has lost it, I think at this:
A red iPhone will be welcomed, as it has become king of a classic color in various Apple linups.
I wonder if the issue behind the display link displays is the same one(s) that broke Duet’s compatibility?
PRODUCT(Red) is a project lead by U2's Bono to raise money for and awareness about Aids epidemics... primarily in Africa. They partner with iconic brands, like Apple, to create products with the color red and a portion of the profits from those products' sales will go toward the fund.

lol Yeah, seems like Macrumors missed the point of that tweet and really stretched this one.
Red iPhones...
Talk about lowering expectations.
Steve Jobs is rolling over in his grave. It's time for some new visionary management.

Since english is not my native language just like 90% of the internet users including on this forum. I made myself pretty clear with my statement and it's obvious to understand.

It's not the color, it's the attitude. "Cool new Apple products"? Like the constant re-purposing of old tech (SE, 6th Gen iPad, 2007 operating system interface, adding touch strips to old-style Macbooks, etc.) or things that never hit their stride like Apple TV, or already-vintage-looking new releases like Apple Watch, or features that aren't really features (like animated emojis -- or new emojis to add to the hundred already there).
Where's the innovation? Where's the new look? Where's the "next big thing"? In my opinion, releasing a gold or red iPhone and calling it "cool new Apple products" doesn't cut it any more.
It's time for new management...
You are aware that the rumours about an iPhone RED and the "cool new products" tweet are (most likely) completely unrelated?
