That Rose Gold.. Hmmmm

Almost a week with my rose gold 6s Plus and not one person has questioned why I got it as a 41 yr old guy. My wife is a little jealous since I gave her my space gray 6 Plus, lol. I told her she'll eventually get this one when I upgrade next year. 
What's even more odd is that in a society so used to mobile phones he found himself being stared at for using one. In this day and age it's almost the stuff of fairytales.
It's pinker than I thought. Went for the gold in the end which actually looks like a gold colour.
All I know is every time I take out my rose gold iPhone girls grab it like "OMG you have it? I love this color it's so cute" lmao. I'm returning mine, not cause of the color but cause it's 16GB and it's a joke. Will grab a 64GB...at the same time I'll change color
I do not mind that it is pink and that I am male. But I do mind that the gold looks more yellow than the pretty gold the 5s had, and that the pink looks more pink, than what i wish rose gold would look like. I went with black/spaceGray this time around.
I think the matt gold used on the 6/6S phones looks classier than the awful shiny bling gold on the 5S. The rose gold is just pink...
Maybe it is just personal preference then. Saw the gold 6 in the tmobile shop today and didn't quite like that compared to my 5s.
I've had the Rose Gold 6s+ since launch day. To me, it's the most beautiful phone I've ever owned. It only looks "pink" under certain light conditions. Otherwise, it's more of very bright copper-ish hue.
Regardless, I don't give a deep-fried f**k about what anybody thinks of my color choice!

That is cool to hear. I hope some people around me buy one so I can have better real life comparisons. Yeah, your last line, I agree. I buy the phone for me, not for someone else. thumbsup
It's a lovely peachy/coppery pink and I like it... surprising since I'm a chick that doesn't really like pink. I was very afraid it was going to be Barbie-doll pink and it's not. I like peach tones though-- it reminds me of my first prom dress. I bought the new color because it was the new color; I've noticed that the new colors are always easier to sell when the time comes.
I'm a female and I LOVE mine. There were several men rocking the Rose Gold in the Apple Store yesterday. I see absolutely nothing wrong with guys having this color. It's kinda sexy.
Agree. The previous gold was far too much in your face, this subtle version is more to my liking.
In that case, I'll be heading to the Apple Store looking for an exchange.
i painted my daughters room blue.. does this make me a bad father..
Is it princess blue like Cinderella?
