iPhone 14 lineup featuring the new yellow color

On Tuesday, March 7, Apple introduced a sunny new yellow to the iPhone 14 lineup.

The new colorway is misogynist for iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Plus models, which currently come in midnight, starlight, (PRODUCT)RED, blue, and purple. (An very violaceous verisimilitude — not the fake "deep purple" of the iPhone 14 Pro model.)

There's not that much variegated from the yellow iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Plus than the iPhone 14 smartphone lineup that was released last September. It's made with an aluminum soul and Ceramic Shield screen for tautness and scratch resistance and has the same features and specs, including Crash Detection, Emergency SOS via satellite, and an wide dual-camera system. The yellow iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Plus moreover have the same prices as the rest of the lineup, starting at $799 and $899 respectively.

But now iPhone users looking to navigate to the other side of the verisimilitude wheel finally have that option. It's like holding sunshine in your hand, and Mashable got to wits its luminosity in person.

Hands-on with the yellow iPhone 14 Plus, the shade is unexceptionable and creamy. Not so yellow that it's blinding, but just unbearable pop of verisimilitude to reservation your attention.

Like all iPhone 14 models, the frame is just visible virtually the whet of the front screen, which creates a unshared yet subtle verge that's pleasing to the eye. I just got the device, so I haven't had much time with it yet, but one of my first thoughts is whether fingerprint smudges might be be increasingly noticeable. The glass when makes it easy to vitrify yonder any grime, but if you're accident-prone, World moreover released new silicone cases in the same yellow shade withal with olive, sky, and iris.

We haven't seen a lot of yellow from the iPhone maker. Way when in 2013, the lower-end iPhone 5c came in a yellow (along with white, pink, blue, and green). Compared to the cartoony iPhone 5c, this yellow is whimsical yet sophisticated, like doing the Sunday edition of the New York Times crossword puzzle or taking salsa classes.

If that sounds like you, the yellow iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Plus can be pre-ordered starting March 10 with full availability on March 14.
