I'm actually wondering the same thing. I'm going to pick up a red one tomorrow morning and see how it goes.
Got a tip for us?

Yup.
Peripheral vision is most sensitive to red (which is why neurologists use red hat pins to test it).
I figure I'm less likely to leave the phone lying on the desk if its red. Worked with my 4S ;-)
I'm toying with getting a GGS glass screen protector. Has anyone else done this??
I've got red on my black iPhone 5. Love the look and this is from a guy who hates cases and never uses them. This is essentially the case I've been waiting for.
Though, I just picked it up yesterday and I can tell it will get dirty. However, being real leather I am sure something will clean it up when necessary.
Are you planning on returning 2 of them or something?
Does anyone know which colors would look best on the Gold iPhone? I don't really like Brown, but it looks decent
I think brown looks great on the gold phone! The only other color that would look decent is black IMO.
Brown hands down

I don't have a 5s but I have a white 5 and brown. Looks awesome imo
Blue or red look really nice IMO. Or black, though it is a bit boring.
Personally I think the brown's too light, but that may just be me.
I've got red. Edges look pretty dirty after two weeks. Blah blah blah leather ages, etc. I get it. However, red leather (or yellow, or blue) does not age and wear the same way brown and black leather does. We are used to seeing those colors change over time, whereas the less natural colors just look dirty.
Not a slam of the quality, etc. I have no clue if it's good or bad. I simply failed to consider how dirty soft red leather would get in a short period of time from regular use: pockets, etc. I'm no mechanic.
I would swap for black (had it for 12 days) but not sure if they'll take it back because it is quite used looking.
Black on black for the neutral bland look.
Red on black for a contrast in color.
You choose. =P
Ended up choosing black on black. I like the sleek look
It would have been good either way. Get another case for those days you want a different or contrasting look lol
