That Rose Gold.. Hmmmm

[infanthercules]

Just seen a video on YouTube of someone reviewing the phone. The Rose Gold does look a very light pink which is a shame! Posted on Twitter earlier that i was thinking of getting a Rose Gold colour and the amount of abuse that was hurdled at me was insane! Think I'll be sticking with the gold!

I’m a girl, I would go for the pink, but those white band totally ruin it
I’ll settle with silver

the silver phone has a white face, too.... so i'm confused...

I'll pre order the rose gold and a gold just in case. Need to see it in person but it looks really girly on screen

Hated Gold until I saw my Grandma's 5S up close. Definitely going to have to wait to see it in-person. Looks too pink for my taste on the pictures. I was hoping for a more reddish tint.

I'm a guy, so I do understand the men card. Basically, "You can have any color you want, as long as it is black."

silver would work, too.....

I've never been into pink but I know a lot of woman that are gonna love this color. Nice to see Apple catering to a more feminine crowd too.

My initial impression was "hell no...". So I guess I don't like it at first sight. I think I'm gonna stick with the Gold one

The gold in not much better than the pink in my opinion.

Ugliest iPhone color to launch yet in my opinion, but wouldn't hate on anyone else for buying it.

i'm totally a pinkie pink girl! (that's why I hated their NOTPINK watchband!)

I've already ordered their new vintage pink (pretty ballet pink color)

I have always used a hot/neon pink case or skin on my phone anyways! I have a matching skin on my ipad mini...

i'm all about PINK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

im a straight dude and id rock the rose gold all day while cruising down the road in my gray mustang. who gives a crap?

I say, if you like it, get it! Who cares what other people think?

Agree completely. Don't be influenced by some sexist conditioning some people raised with. Color is choice and not a gender ID.

Seeing in person a good idea. The original gold can look almost silver depending on the light and how you hold the phone. Suspect the Rose Gold will also look different depending on angle viewed.

Wish they had choice of bezel colors. I would really like black front with gold or Rose Gold back.

My mom is sold

 

[Stlcheer]

I'm sold on the rose gold. Can't wait to get it on my 6s plus!

 

[invisibleshoes]

Rose gold is gorgeous...just gotta see it in person.

I can't believe people are still associating colours with genders. For gods sake, just get the colour you like the most and ignore the idiots that question you!

You would think people had better stuff to do. But generally, this really isn't a problem outside of MacRumors. MR is just full of really OCD Apple fanatics that set artificially societal boundaries for themselves and others.

Thank you so much. In return you can have brown things, but don't you dare buy anything blue or you'll have to turn in your woman card.

And yet, you're here discussing in the topic.

Not an Apple fanboy though.

I think its a nice colour, doesn't appeal to me but I can see a lot loving this.

 

[Four oF NINE]

It's too far into the pink range for my taste. If it were more copper, maybe.. I'm thinking back to silver/white this time around.

Did it annoy you as much as it annoyed me when they tried to claim that last year's leather case was "soft pink"? I loooove anything pink, and that was nowhere close to pink.

I'm getting that pinkish rose gold with iPhone 7.

 

[mcfinch]

Watch in the ad @ 24 seconds a man with rose gold...

 

[ToddH]

Gold was tough enough but if you go with the Rose, the man card is being pulled.
If you have no problem walking around with a pink phone, more power to you.

I just wished they would offer some masculine choices, like a navy blue or hunter green.

Who cares if it's Rosegold nobody's going to see it if you put a case on it anyway right? You can get navy blue cases and Huntergreen cases just FYI.

Get what color you like. Any sort of notion of it being "feminine" and to not get it because its "girly" is foolish. Color isn't an identification of gender, it's a color based on personal preferences.

Such archaic posts in this thread.
