Will any of you men (dudes) be purchasing the pink iPhone?

To be honest , who in the hell cares if you have a pink IPhone or not. (Most) men will probably get the Rose Gold just because it's a new color and which is fine. I'm a dude and i'm getting a Rose Gold , that does not mean that im gay.

Seriously why the hell are some people getting so pissed off at other dude's getting a pink iPhone? I mean is it your money that's being spent on the damn thing? Some of y'all are getting pissy about it, like another guy getting a pink iPhone affects you some kinda way. I kinda expect this kinda thinking from 13yr old but if you're 18 or older and are getting this mad over a pink phone...you need to reevaluate your life and everything in it.


Your money, buy whatever the hell you want. Pink, gold, silver, doo doo brown...who the **** cares
 
I just played with the 6s rose gold at the apple store and its not that pink, imo its really subtle pink, looks a bit like hand palm skin, not too kinky, i might end up buying this color.

I am 55+ and straight guy. I ordered the Rose Gold. It looks real nice. Life is too short to worry what the unknown next guy thinks of my masculinity or sexual orientation. My wife is thrilled I bought a color I liked. She said if she likes the color she might order a 6S to complement my 6S+. To each his own. If you like the color, go for it. You have worked hard and deserve it.

when I switch with tmobile I think I'm getting this "pink" phone. I currently have the gold 6+ but after seeing the "pink" one I don't think I can go back and I'm dude...

Can we all stop calling it pink? It's so undermining to those who just like the color. It's called rose gold for a reason. Do I call someone gay because they look it, even if they are not? No, cause that's not what they are or want to be called.

On topic: I ordered it and after all the reviews I'm really happy with it! It's more coppery than I thought which is a plus :)

Agreed about pink not being a issue, name calling, ect.

That said, having see it in person now, it is pink.

the colour IS pink.

so apple calls it rose gold and it's okay for them to mislead people?

Got mine. Still looks rose gold to me. Under certain lighting, from straight on, it can look pink...But from most angles it looks rose gold. I love it, no regrets.

I'm getting it to have something different. It's definitely got a pink hue to it but it's equal to the gold in my opinion. It's a nice finish.

Looking forward to it

The color is kindof a moot point anyway since everyone immediately jams their phone in a giant friggin' case since the damn thing is so slippery.

Whether it be considered Rose Gold, Pink or Salmon, I actually like the color and can't wait when I upgrade to the iPhone 7 with this rose gold color. Are any of you guys giving it a second thought?

I don't like it. However, if you and other men do, then get it.
 
My sister just opened up the box and doesn't like the rose gold. It's too pink for her. She likes a true rose gold color. My guess is that she'll exchange it for the "regular" gold.

Well, if one criteria is that we should call a thing based on what people want it to be called, then let's call it either "pink" or "super manly copper" depending on the emotional security of the owner.

No, hadn't even occurred to me that men would want this.. must be a millennial thing? :confused:

What, not having their masculinity validated by the colour of their phone?

If that's a "millennial thing" then I sure am glad to be a millennial.
