iPhone 5S will be available in gold, new 128GB option coming
MG Siegler of TechCrunch got the scoop from some inside sources and tonight declared that a gold iPhone is, in fact, in the works. There are still a few unanswered questions though. Since Apple is expected to unveil two new iPhones next month -- the iPhone 5S and lower-end iPhone 5C -- it might be possible that the gold will only be available for one of them. Traditionally, Apple tends to get more colorful with lower-end products that don't have as much of a premium feel, however a gold iPhone 5S could act as a decent differentiator from the iPhone 5.
In keeping with the theme Apple started in 2012 to have two-tone color options like black and slate gray, it appears the gold will be mixed with a white front panel and white strips on the top and bottom of the back. Personally, I think gold and black would look more sophisticated, but with the overwhelming amount of white present in iOS 7, perhaps black hardware wouldn't complement the white software as nicely.
It'll definitely be interesting to see the feedback Apple gets if the gold iPhone is truly unveiled and if it will be a popular color option among consumers.

Mortar I see no reason as to why they would make a gold version of an iPhone, I mean who seriously would want one? I would be embarrassed if I had one.
I would think that it's more versed towards females, i couldn't really see a male having a gold iPhone and actually feeling proud about it.

It looks ugly dude. How could you want that?
It all depends on the individuals personal preference. I have no doubt that some people think it looks great

BrosUtilities Such a pointless thing.
You can say that again. But for all the Apple fans this is not pointless and Apple will probably make a ton of money on this.
Apple fans will likely be jumping on this because it's a little 'different' color wise from the other models released in the past.
