What's the stereotypical colors for apples? red and green right? what if Apple put two new types of colors on their future iPhone, 8+, that's either bright red or bright green? just imagine the Rose Gold atm, except to change the pink shine with the bright red and bright green color of REAL apples.

What do you think of these two colors for future iPhones? since you only have 800$ to blow once in a while on an iPhone, it will hard to decide among silver, gold, rose gold, etc, but if you had to pick between these two, which one would you pick?

I meant to add a poll but I accidentally press enter before I can. If a mod can edit and put in a poll for me like this:

Poll Question: I would choose:

Option 1: Bright Red
Option 2: Bright Green

Thanks

Neither. Sounds childish for my taste.
 
they've made a green iPhone 5c and they've had a product red iPod touch.

Yes but the texture is the difference no? the iPhone 5c is plastic looking while this hypothetical product would be the Rose Gold shine except pink is replaced with bright red and bright green, colors of apples.
 
Wouldn't buy it

Yes but there is also Silver, Gold, Space Gray, and Rose Gold, you only had enough money to buy one out of the four, back in 2015 or 2014 if you did have enough money and didn't stick with your iPhone 4, 4s, 5, 5C, or 5S instead, so my money is that you didn't buy Space Gray, Rose Gold, and Gold...so if you add in these two, Bright Red and Bright Green colors of apples, then now you will have forgone 5 possible other options instead of 3, no?

hypothetically no.

No what?

If Apple ever did release a red iPhone, it wouldn't be a Product RED version, since that would hurt their bottom line too much. They can be generous, but not that much.

I do not understand this reference or inside joke...

Product Red items from Apple have a portion of the sale donated to charity. It's no inside joke, it's simply fact that they have never and will never have a product red iPhone, as it will take too much of their profit.

As for the hypothetical of a green or red iPhone, red may be somewhat passable, but green has always been an undesirable color for Apple.

Apple donates a portion of the revenue they receive from Product RED sales. Since the iPhone sells in hundreds of millions per year, a Product RED iPhone would force them to donate money for the cause. Not a bad thing at all, it's a good thing, but they would probably never do this, since it would impact their bottom line too much.
 
I would not be buying one. The iPhone colors are very classy. A red or green iPhone would "cheapen" the iPhone. I'm content with the current colors but I would like a darker version of Space Gray like the shade on the 5s.

Wow. I can't believe how hard it is to get people to answer a hypothetical question.

OP, if I had to pick between a red and green iPhone, I'd pick green. But as long as silver/white is an option, that's my only choice.

Thanks for your answer
 
i did like the green iPhone 5c but to me it more looked like a second phone or a back up. if they really did a product red iPhone depending on how it looked i would give it a thought. But... I'm pretty sure it will never happen.
 
I'd probably go for the red if I had to, but if I don't like how it looks I would cover it with a case.

Apple would never offer these as the only colour options though.
