Guys, don’t pay attention to the beautiful bright yellow iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Plus. They’re distractions—bad deals covered in fun colors. And Apple knows it.
For four years, I was proud to own a yellow iPhone XR. I am obsessed with color. Color affects mood and is an important part of personal expression. The yellow iPhone has made a lot of impact on my life. It’s been fun to look at every day, it’s improved my style, and it’s easy to find in even the messiest of gym bags.
Tim Cook may take a big pay cut this year, but don’t worry too much about him.
I was really disappointed when I had to replace that phone earlier this year. I was tempted by the soft blue and bright lavender colors of the iPhone 14 and 14 Plus, but there was no yellow option in the iPhone 14 line. The iPhone 14 Pro and 14 Max were limited to silver, gold, deep purple, and space black — snore! — and were more expensive.
Given that I asked Apple for a hot pink iPhone, you might be surprised that I resisted the lure of bright colors and bought a solid gold iPhone 14 Pro.When Apple announced The new yellow iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Plus(opens in new tab) This morning I wondered if I had made a mistake.
But I know the Pro was the right decision for my wallet.
For example, compare the 128 GB iPhone 14 to the 128 GB iPhone 14 Pro. The main differences between the two phones are color options, additional camera lenses, and around $200.
A few years ago, each new iPhone was a leap forward in camera technology over the previous iteration. But since then, progress has slowed, and newer iPhone camera tech improvements are gradual.
The iPhone 14 Pro and Max may be more expensive in the short term, but cheaper in the long term. Buying an iPhone with three lenses can help prevent the device from becoming obsolete quickly.
But Apple knows that colors can speak to you. That’s why they make cheaper products brighter and bolder, making them almost unappealing to someone like me. not.
