The new iPhone color.

I like a black bezel, and think rose gold would look killer with a black bezel.
I think Apple wanted to appeal to a certain customer (women) so they came up with a pink phone. Apple has a license to print money and they just added a new press!
See it in person first. It can look very salmony pink sometimes. Don't rely on just pictures.
What's attracting me to the rose gold is probably that I have own every iPhone color except rose gold (because it's new). I'm going to the T-Mobile store tomorrow to buy a 6s Plus, which hopefully they have in stores by now. So I'm deciding to stay black or rose gold.
Well in that case you should get Rose Gold just to finish up the collection
It's neither here nor there to me. My wife has the 128GB 6s in Rose Gold so I know what it looks like. It's ok. As a guy, I'd be ok with carrying it.
All that said, my wife is pretty meh about it. She actually prefers the gold of her previous 6.

Do you think people are purposely convincing themselves that it looks more copper than it is pink to justify that the color is manly enough? If you like the color ,buy it, who really cares if you have a pink-like iphone
I hate it. I've had it since launch day and thought it's grow on me. It has not. Bottom line? It's a pink phone. No rose gold, no copper, no nothing but...pink. LOL. Used one of my JUMPs to get a 6s Plus in Gold. Should be here 10/28.
Interesting, I haven't seen this new color in person, but from these photos, I see where it may look copper.
It's one of those colors that change depending on the angle and lighting...different. If it had a black face I might have gotten it....maybe next year with the iPhone 7
I was in an Apple store yesterday for the first time since they announced the 6s, as there isn't one close to me (at least an hour and a half out.) Anyway, I wanted to see the color in person. I don't hate it, but it definitely looks pink to me. With that being said I like it way more than the original gold. Also, go with whatever color you like the best. It doesn't matter if you're a guy, girl, gay, straight, whatever. Just get the color that you like.
I personally wish Apple would have added another black bezeled option instead. Ideally black on black would probably be my go to, but I guess Space Grey is the best we'll get. I think a navy color could be good. I have a White/Silver 6 Plus and while I do love the color I think I'm learning I really just prefer a black bezel. I went Original > Black 3gs > Black 4 > White 4s > Black 5 > White 6 Plus and I think I'm just learning black bezel is more practical.

Most images I have seen and the two time I have seen in real life the phone was pink. If you like it, get it and be proud. It is just not for me.
I don't know I think this topic could use another 50 just like it. Just to be sure.
