Which iPhone 6 color is best for a boy? Choosing a color is not an easy task. Holes for buttons and SIM card holder

Recently, the line of iPhone and iPad colors has been replenished with a new color: "Pink gold". The new color has become so popular that there is still a huge hype for it all over the world. Buyers are willing to overpay a lot of money to resellers just to get the iPhone 6s in this particular color.

Ultimately, we have four colors available for purchase currently: Space Grey, Gold, Silver, and Rose Gold. Many buyers rack their brains when choosing the desired color, because each of them has its own advantages and disadvantages.

If you choose white, the appearance of your Apple smartphone or tablet will be more stylish and youthful, but on the iPhone and iPad of this color, black frames around the display, light sensors and the front camera will be visible. It is because of these shortcomings that many refuse to choose this color.

The gold color is no different from the white on the front of a smartphone or tablet, but the back of the case looks and feels completely different. The gold color, although in fact it is more like sand, gives the back cover a special look, which with the release of the iPhone 5s allowed it to further emphasize its individuality.

Rose gold differs from the regular gold color only in that the back of the case is a different color. For the most part, an iPhone 6s smartphone purchased in this color allows you to emphasize your status as the owner of the newest generation iPhone, and “Rose Gold” is also very popular with girls.

When choosing a color for your iPhone or iPad, it's important to understand a few things. Scratches and abrasions will be much more visible on dark colors, so gray colors will quickly take on a used look. On a space gray iPhone, the display feels more alive due to the lack of black frames, or rather because they are invisible.

New colors like “Rose Gold” and “Gold” are tasty morsels for thieves, as they allow them to understand from afar that they are the owner of the newest and most expensive generation of iPhone. Buying new body parts is much easier for silver and space gray, as these are the most popular colors.

The most practical color for iPhone and iPad will be “Silver”. A device in this color is equally suitable for men and girls. The second place goes to “Space Gray”, which earns its place due to the “picture-in-the-palm” effect due to the invisible frames around the display. Third place receives “Gold” and fourth place “Rose Gold”.

Until December 22 inclusive, everyone has the opportunity to use Xiaomi Mi Band 4, spending only 1 minute of their personal time on it.

The buttons and connectors on the iPhone 6 Plus body remained unchanged quantitatively and qualitatively, but their appearance and location were rethought by Apple designers. The main thing is that the power button is no longer located on the top, but has been moved to the right side so that it can be pressed without having to grab the smartphone in your hand. Undoubtedly a convenient solution, but the implementation is poor. The fact is that on the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus the button is in the same place relative to the edges. In practice, this means that in a smaller device it is located opposite the thumb, but in a model with a 5.5-inch screen you will have to reach for it or even slightly grab the smartphone in your hand. In the iPhone 6 Plus, for the convenience of users, it should have been moved closer to the center of the smartphone. The button itself has become curved, similar to the edge of a smartphone. The volume buttons also changed their shape and became elongated instead of round. The mechanical controls retain a clear, tight action and a characteristic click when pressed. At the bottom there is a Lightning connector, speaker and microphone holes, as well as a 3.5 mm port for connecting headphones.

It doesn't matter whether we're talking about the iPhone 6 or the iPhone 6 Plus, the protruding camera module was one of the most unpleasant surprises. Perfectionists will probably be enraged by the fact that the smartphone sways slightly when working with it on a flat surface. Considering that the iPhone 6 Plus is larger and 0.2 mm thicker than the iPhone 6, Cupertino could try to solve this problem and pack the protruding lens flush with the body, even at the expense of optical stabilization.

While the back of the device may be a disappointment for some, it’s hard to resist the eye-catching front side of the new product. The main change is the rounding of the protective glass of the display at the edges, so that it flows into the metal body, which also has rounded shapes on the sides. The front panel looks most advantageous in the hands, since it is very difficult to convey the feeling of this design solution in photographs.

If we talk about the choice of color, I am most impressed by the strict dark gray case, even if in the case of other manufacturers I prefer bright or unusual solutions. Compared to the model with a 4.7-inch screen, the gold color of the iPhone 6 Plus is much smaller. This is very unexpected, because apart from the case size there are no differences between the devices. Another argument in favor of “space gray” is the black front panel, which merges with the screen and hides the wide frames around the display. The front sides of the silver and gold iPhone 6 Plus are white, so the contrast with the black screen makes us once again notice the not-so-great ratio between the display and the device as a whole. The “space gray” body color can also get a bonus point for the dark inserts on the back. The snow-white plastic of the gold and silver models is easier to stain or scratch, and flaws on it will be much more noticeable. As a result, there is a high probability that over time the presentation of the back of the smartphone will be lost.

As for the appearance of the iPhone 6 Plus, the first thing that comes to my mind is “clumsy.” The reason for this lies in the unusually large body. On the one hand, he is still the same stylish handsome man as his brother with a diagonal of 4.7 inches, on the other hand, it is too unusual to see such a large device running the Apple mobile operating system. Probably, in a few months this feeling will disappear and the iPhone 6 Plus will look much more organic. This is due to the thin body, the highest quality of materials and workmanship, as well as a fresh look from Apple designers on the exterior of the device.

Apple presented a series of new iPhone 6, which captivated its fans with a variety of colors. This time, the designers’ palette has been transformed and, in addition to the usual colors of the iPhone 5 and iPhone 5s, new fashionable colors are presented to our attention: gray “Space Grey”, which translates as “Space Grey”, Pink pink, Gold Gold and Silver silver. All colors are worthy of being described for you.

The external design of the iPhone 6 cases and the colors of the case differ in many respects from its predecessor, the iPhone 5s. The names of the colors of the smartphones, in principle, have not changed, but their shades have undoubtedly changed.

Undoubtedly, the most attractive are the stripes on the back cover of smartphones, which indicate that you are the happy owner of an iPhone 6. The stripes are relatively different from the color of the smartphone itself, but the purpose of their application was not only to display a new direction in design, but also in a technical sense - This is an innovation for the smartphone itself. These stripes on the case not only ensure its attractiveness, but also ensure the operation of cellular communications and, of course, cellular modules, which have always been hindered by the aluminum case.

We have known this color combination for a long time from the iPhone 5/5s series. Most likely, inspired by the previous design of the Apple smartphone, the authors continued this theme, adding to this the rounded edges, thin body and streamlined panel that this brand has become famous for in the new season.

Soft pink

The sales leader was undoubtedly the Apple iPhone 6 with a Pink Pink casing. Its soft pink pastel panel has attracted the admiration of many women. This shade of the smartphone complemented the model image of fashionistas in the new season. Light stripes decorated its body like never before.

Stylish and straightforward Space Gray

Space Gray has brightened up a bit compared to the previous iPhone. The innovation is undoubtedly the black stripes on Space Gray. This shade brought a note of solidity and presentability to its owners, who, apparently, will be the strong half of humanity and will be able to appreciate the authority of the Apple Gray iPhone 6.

Arctic Silver

The new silver shade closely matches the metallic color of the Apple laptop, and the dark stripes on the back of its case seem to emphasize its individuality and grace. Apple replaced the chopped straight lines with innovative new ones - rounded edges of the case, as it once presented its very first models. Now truly owners of Apple products will be able to assemble the entire set of the same color from a smartphone, tablet and laptop.

Aristocratic Gold

Gold Apple iPhone 6S and 6S Plus, like the pink color, is undoubtedly the clear leader in smartphone sales. After all, the manufacturer received over 40% of orders specifically for the color “rose gold”. The golden color pleased with its rich warm colors. The gold case is also beautifully complemented by white stripes.

The developers of accessories for the iPhone 6 Gold also did not stand aside, providing chic gold rims for smartphone cases.

And if you stick mirror glass on the body of a gold iPhone 6 smartphone, the color of the six will become truly royal.

The Brikk company, in turn, proposed to complement the Apple iPhone 6 by covering it with several layers of gold, platinum, and even for particularly sophisticated customers - inlaid with diamonds in the shape of the Apple logo. The price for this finish ranges from $4,495 to $8,795.

Flawless White

The classic snow-white White iPhone 6 is impeccable as always and is also complemented by darker stripes on the body. Its mirror surface complements the image of purity like never before for lovers of chic white.

Graceful Black

Black Black is designed, as always, in a strict style for lovers of practicality, rigor and classics. We agree that the iPhone 6 in black is reasonable to recognize as one of the most popular, its new style is not disturbed by the usual images, but the practical version of matte black is quite appropriately developed.

Can Apple's color scheme in the iPhone 6 smartphones be called revolutionary? Yes, there is certainly a new style and design. Sales trends, in turn, stimulated mirror glass developers to saturate this device with an unrivaled extravagant design that makes the appearance of the iPhone 6 unrecognizable.

From the beginning of sales, when huge queues gathered outside Apple Stores and hundreds of people wanted to get their hands on a gold phone, until today, sales activity for the iPhone 6 and its big friend iPhone 6 Plus has not subsided.

The frantic rush to buy the flagships of the American company Apple - iPhone 6 and 6 plus - has subsided a little. Users no longer comb through all available products, but purposefully choose the most suitable option for themselves. And in addition to thinking about which model is better - 6 or 6 plus, you need to decide on the choice of color.

However, Apple doesn’t really indulge consumers with the colorful variety of its gadgets. The color range of the new iPhone case is limited to three, now traditional, options: space grey, gold and grey, which are offered by the manufacturer for the second year in a row.

iPhone color - torment of choice

But even such a meager number makes many people think: “What color of iPhone case is better to choose?” As practice shows, there is no clear answer. Here everything depends solely on the future owner and his preferences. And we also need to thank Apple for the fact that we have to choose one of three.

First of all, it is worth noting that the gold and “silver” cases, both in the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 plus, have a white front panel, and the “space gray” case has a black one. Omitting points like: “black suits boys best, and gold suits girls best,” let’s dwell on the advantages and disadvantages of each.

Black is always relevant!

It is clear that the iPhone in black (more precisely in black plus dark gray) is a classic that has been and will be relevant because of its versatility and practicality. It looks impressive and stylish, and therefore Apple decided to choose it to represent the entire line in the promotional campaign.

Also, plus everything, the image on the display, thanks to the dark frames, is clearly shaded and seems even more contrasting and bright. This point is especially noticeable on the large screen of the iPhone 6 plus model.

Whether in silver or gold, the iPhone is always in great shape.

The advantage of the silver case is that it is not painted - it is just original solid aluminum with a transparent coating, when scratched the color does not change, and damage will not be so noticeable. The same cannot be said about the other two options. Although the cases of the new iPhone 6 and 6 plus now have a special anodized coating, which involves deep penetrating painting. This means that Apple gadgets will remain unchanged for a long time, and the colors of the coatings will not fade over time.

Traditionally, stains and fingerprints are less noticeable on a gold or silver-colored case. As you can see in the picture below, they are only visible on the shiny Apple logo, and the surrounding panel is clear.

But on black, the dust and dirt that inevitably appears during operation, which accumulates in the sides around the display and the Touch ID key, is not noticeable.

In general, the black iPhone visually looks monolithic. All working holes and buttons are clearly not visible on it, and there is an illusion that it is better protected. And in white, all the above elements are contrastingly graded, and when the monitor is off, it sometimes looks broken.

Color is not the main thing

As you can see, Apple does not strive for color verification of its products; all the devices it offers are already flying apart in an instant. The subjective and minor differences listed above do not in any way affect the functionality and smooth operation of the iPhone 6 and 6 plus.

By and large, you most likely won’t even see the colors of the rear panel. Because to protect such an expensive gadget, you will probably purchase a protective case. Moreover, the bodies of both models are overly streamlined and smooth, and therefore simply slip out of your hands. This is especially true for the large iPhone 6 plus. And the use of a cover makes the original color not so important.

Although, in essence, this is all a matter of taste. So just choose the one that you like best, and don’t worry about how it will perform during use, or what others will say.

The concept of unoriginality will inevitably cause an unhealthy grin on the face of even the average user, let alone real genuine disgust in a pedantic perfectionist. Nevertheless, the modern “the devil is not as scary as he is painted” - high-quality replicas have every right to exist. This is especially true in cases of lack of an original alternative, which almost all users of Apple mobile electronics have encountered. This material will dot all the i's for those who decided to replace - pitfalls and possible problems.

So what is the difference between the original iPhone 6 case and the non-original one?

General appearance from the outside

The general appearance of the original iPhone 6 case and the non-original case on the outside is almost identical. In the second case, the plastic separating the antenna units in the presented case is black, but it can also be white - like on the original silver case. The joint between plastic and aluminum is pleasant to the touch. Finding the difference between the original iPhone 6 case and the non-original one will be very difficult.

General appearance inside

In the inside of the non-original iPhone 6 case, hidden from the user’s eyes, the differences are much more noticeable. An experienced craftsman will immediately notice the slightly carelessly poured plastic and the difference in the operation of the CNC machine. However, these visual differences will definitely not affect the operation of the device as a whole - you can be sure of that.

Shiny border - facet - on the speaker and microphone openings

Upon closer inspection, you will notice that, unlike the original iPhone 6 case, the non-original case does not have shiny edges - facets - on the openings of the speakers and microphone.

Foam seals

The non-original iPhone 6 case does not have foam seals, including those that protect the camera from dust. All of them are transferred by an experienced technician from the original case when replacing. The flash in a colored housing in Chinese style is fixed with a couple of dots of glue.

Holes for buttons and SIM card holder

The holes for the buttons and SIM card holder in the non-original iPhone 6 case are made almost perfectly, including the facets. The buttons in them move as smoothly and pleasantly as possible - that’s why you can hear that “correct” click.

Apple logo

The Apple logo is the most significant difference between the non-original iPhone 6 case and the original one - it may sink slightly or protrude above the surface. Such defects are corrected as much as possible by EtoService specialists during replacement. Over the many years of experience of our service center specialists, we have never seen a logo perfectly made by the Chinese - the only exception may be the products of the Foxconn plant, whose employees produce all components for the iPhone. However, it should be noted that such defects are often found in the original cases for the iPhone 6, which can be considered the norm for such a technology for fixing the logo in the case.

Inscriptions

The inscriptions at the bottom of the non-original case for the iPhone 6 are made similarly to the original solution - they are made with a laser and contain the name of the phone, which, of course, differs from the user one. The biggest difference in the execution of the inscriptions is the font used.

Camera hole

The camera hole in the non-original iPhone 6 case has the necessary facet, but it differs from the original solution in color. The glass used to protect the camera does not have an oleophobic coating, so you will have to wipe it more often.

Measurements

The dimensions of the non-original iPhone 6 case replicate the original solution by 99.98%, which is its undoubted advantage. The width of the color case is 67.012 mm - the difference reaches an insignificant value of 0.017%. The thickness of the aluminum is 0.7 mm - there is no difference at all, so the non-original case has the same strength and rigidity.

Thus, non-original colored cases for iPhone 6, which are used by our company’s specialists for replacement, do not have significant differences and are suitable for use - in comparison with the original ones, they can be rated 8/10. However, it should be noted that non-original cases may differ significantly, depending on the manufacturing company. All factory replacement housings are meticulously checked by our service workers. Of the last batch of 100 pieces received, 79 were sent back - the rest were as close to the original as possible.

Is it worth changing the case to a colored one?

We cannot answer this question unequivocally; everyone must make their own decision. We, in turn, have created favorable conditions for this:

• — disassembly and assembly of the phone into a new case is carried out by professionals;
• — cases of excellent quality, each case is selected;
• — large assortment in stock;
• — warranty on phone assembly for each client.
