After speculation and numerous reports about Apple making a gold iPhone option for the upcoming iPhone 5S this weekend two legit tech sites have confirmed that the company will indeed have that color option. AllThingsD and 9to5Mac confirmed last weekend that the rumors were true and Apple would be making a gold iPhone in addition to a black and white iPhone 5S. John Paczkowski for AllThingsD said:
"Apple is adding a new color to the iPhone color palette, and yes, it is indeed gold. Sources in position to know tell AllThingsD that Apple, after years of offering the iPhone in either black and white, will soon offer it in a gold tone as well. The new color option was described to AllThingsD as an "elegant" gold tone. "Think champagne, not ingot," a source said. Sources say that the gold iPhone will feature a white face, with a gold-tone back plate and chamfered edging."
9to5Mac's Mark Gurman is reporting separately with additional details about the new color, and his sources have often proven accurate in the past:
"While many have called this new iPhone color "gold," our source says that the color is more inline with the yellow fifth-generation iPod touch, but slightly lighter in texture. Some have called this "champagne" and that sounds about right. We've also heard that this gold model has a white front-face, so it won't be a black and gold device, but rather a white and "gold/champagne" phone."
The new iPhone 5S is expected out this fall and will be identical to the current generation iPhone 5. Apple is reportedly planning a press event for September 10 where the company should announce the two new iPhones coming this year and the new iPad devices.
