Looks awful with that gold.

Sony had an Xperia in copper one year that looked good.

 

[sc0la]

Also, copper gold is probably for China. Get used to getting things that look "funny" to US tastes tailored for the Chinese market. That's why they made gold originally.

 

[Draper]

i'm hoping that "gold" is really a silver and the discoloration is from light reflection

I don't know... that looks pretty damn gold to me.

Also, why have an aesthetically pleasing silver frame around the lens of 2 colors, but not the Jet Black?

 

[Silent_Ocarina]

The back of the phone just looks hideous from those pictures. The front of the phone (just judging from the renders) looks pretty good.

 

[Hattori]

iPhone cycle is like a reverse Sonic cycle, people will hate the potato shots but once the actual product shots come out they'll come around.

 

[keuja]

Why are they so glossy . Matte is so much better, especially matte black.

 

[enzo_gt]

Looks horrible, like an iPhone made for tacky grandmas.

Almost certainly a fake, not very Apple-ish in terms of hues either.

Every other more reliable rumour suggests black only.

These are hot as fuck.

theres no way they only release one color, unless they're talking specifically about the anniversary model due to the OLED

Back is glass, hard to do matte.
BUT, how dope would a pseudo matte glass finish like their mac track pad be?

They could get away with one color on the OLED model. The will only produce tens of millions, not hundreds of millions. And they will sell every single one regardless of color they offer.

Yep. This, every year like clockwork.

 

[sappyday]

I kind of like it

They are.

You're loosing if you get the iPhone 8 with a white front.

 

[SlickShoesRUCrazy]

That looked nice, though matte black preferable.

I still don't understand why they didn't go slightly bigger and have a tiny lower lip for a speaker and upper lip to avoid the bezel screen cut out.

Been rocking the + version for nearly 3 years. I don't feel like it would be an issue for most people.

 

[Razgriz-Specter]

You know what color/design would get an immediate upgrade and purchase from me.

Would never happen though.

 

[CrimsonSquall]

Literally do not care about the back of my phone.

I've had a case that covers all of it besides the apple logo for both iPhones I've purchased

 

[Dylan Sexbang]

Give me a "Jet" White please, this copper is fukn uggo- and a "Jet" White to match their Jet Black would be a nice callback to older MacBooks/iMacs. I LOVE everything about my Jet Black, I haven't used a case with it since I bought it back in January. It's just a great looking device.

 

[xJavonta]

Literally can't wait. I love my 7 Plus screen but the size is killing me.

 

[Michael F. Assbender]

Looks like someone pooped vomit on a dick.

 

[AmaterasuOkami076]

The colour makes it look tacky as hell.

 

[LowSignal]

I'm not ashamed to say I owned the poop brown Zune

 

[Sunster]

I want neon orange.

 

[Nightfall]

I don't like this design at all. Apple can probably make it mouth watering sexy in its commercials, but I'm just not feeling it.
I'll keep my 6s and will probably switch to a Google Pixel in the foreseeable future.

 

[big_z]

im sure it will fit nicely with those still rocking a 70's décor.

 

[Owari]

As if there's ever been another color option that looks good besides black.

Actually, take that back, the white 3GS was dope.

White faced phones are awful. Especially with that bump on this supposed leak. That camera area should always be black. Looks straight up awful in white.

 

[KeRaSh]

FUCK YOU APPLE NO RED?

Yeah. If there's no red I'm not getting one. After the Pixel 2 leaks the red iPhone 7 is the only thing that could get me to abandon Android (at least temporarily) but I'm reluctant to buy "old" tech...

 

[the_id]

FUGLY. I hope these aren't real. Having said that, I might balk and get some for the myself and the MRS.

When is this due to be announced anyway?

 

[Replicant]

Black iPhone looks really cheap these days. Miss the black from iPhone4.

 

[Davide]

That's what the people were clamoring for, the color of pennies.

Where's that sexy-ass Deep Blue phone that was rumored for the 7?

Nah but let's not make TOO much money now.

This looks like the colour of my OnePlus 5.

Every time I see iPhone 8 it looks worse to me, the white faced version is ugly. A worse looking phone than the 7. It's a phone I'd only take in black.

 

[Vuze]

FUGLY. I hope these aren't real. Having said that, I might balk and get some for the myself and the MRS.

September as usual supposedly. They haven't given a date for the keynote yet though and it will still be a few weeks until they do.

Also yeah, that deep blue phone render looks gorgeous af.

 

[Appleman]

The Jet Black one reminds me a lot of the iPhone 4 in person

 

[The Maverick]

If they drop the Rose Gold for that, I'm going to have to get used to seeing a lot of ugly phones.

 

[Michael F. Assbender]

So now the rumor from KGI is only three colors for iPhone 8: Black, Silver, and Gold (possibly that copper/gold from the photo that made the rounds yesterday.

Those wanting dark blue in this thread have good taste.

Was just about to post this, thanks.

Black, Silver, or Gold, GAF? I will have to go black.

Black. No other options make sense for me, especially if the front bezel thing is going to be black on all models.

 

[Stat Flow]

Black iPhone 8 is the only proper way to upgrade.

Will be waking up at 2:57 am with the Apple Store App on my iPhone and apple.com on my MacBook ready.

 

[RichiRamjag]

I don't see apple putting out anything that looks so shitty.

 

[javac]

If that color is legit it's going to be popular as fuck, it'll go well with the fake michael kors handbags I see all over the place.

 

[KillGore]

Man, that's ugly

 

[Sir Doom]

With white front?

Will stick to silver

 

[Pachimari]

This phone reminds me so much of the Nokia 5800.

 

[VertPin]

With white front?

Will stick to silver

There will not be a white front.

 

[Mortemis]

Still the best looking phone render I've ever seen. It's such a nice color that I was ready to buy a 7 even though I didn't want to upgrade. Alas, it's a dream that'll never happen.

 

[The Albatross]

We call this color: Beer Poops

 

[ZOONAMI]

I call BS. Why release this and not take a pic of the front?

 

[ronco2000]

Don't be so racist.

 

[Clipse]

First time hearing this. Why even have different color options besides black? Black bezel + silver edges + white back is going to look awful.

 

[BeforeU]

Have they announced the date yet? Isn't it usually first week of September?

 

[Owari]

There will not be a white front.

This guy gets it
