Apple's recent announcement of a Product Red Special
Edition variant for the iPhone 8 and the iPhone 8 Plus, left quite a few iPhone
X fans disappointed. As per the latest info out of Cupertino, there isn't going
to be one. Instead, Apple has launched a Product Red Leather Folio case for the
phone, which features a deeper red finish and a contribution to the Global
Funds for fighting HIV/AIDS built into the price, as well.
That's not really the same, but at least it's some
form of consolation. And so is this gold iPhone X, recently spotted in an FCC
document. The specific color is named Blush Gold and since the 180-day
confidentiality period on the document has expired, we can only assume it's
well on its way to an official announcement and consumer hands.
Just like the Product Red edition makeovers, the new
color option for the iPhone X extends to the back, as well as the metal frame.
The latter gets a mirror-like finish, in roughly the same shade of gold. Since
we have no information on any additional features or special status for the
Blush Gold variant, we can only assume it will retail for the same price as the
Space Gray and Silver units. Other reports also suggest that Apple's future
iPhone lineup will be available in Blush Gold as well.
