Torn Between Black and Red

BLACK. You can always put a Product Red Apple () leather or silicone case on.

Actually you can't because Apple didn't make them for the XR! Why is that?! Kinda strange

Is this the first time Apple didn't offer some kind of Space Gray for a new iPhone?

It's black... That's the one I got.

Wait, I thought you just posted Apple didn't make the Xr in black? Or did you mean the Product Red case?

Noooo...I said apple didn't make any of their branded cases for the XR

Wow, I wonder why?

I’ve seen on MacRumors that Apple was making a clear case for the XR in the mold of the leather/silicone cases. I’m all over that if they do. With that said, after MUCH WAFFLING, I preorder the blue. I figured I’d already owned a black, white and red iPhone and I’ve had a yellow silicone case...but never a blue phone or case so I said why not!!

I just changed my black order to red! Never had the red and figured I'd switch it up.

If they look anything like the 5c colors then I would get the blue if I was gonna get an Xr

I had the red 7+ and it was sweet. That was my first choice in the XR, then I leaned towards the white. As the witching hour approached I decided blue. Same thing with series 4 watch. My original was silver, my series 1 was gold...for series 4 I was gonna get silver again. Then I decided on the new gold (space gray never had appealed to me) but at the last moment I decided to go space gray and really do love it. So I used same logic with blue lol. I’ve got a clear case from Speck on the way. Just in case Apple doesn’t make one. I’ve been using clear Speck cases for about 5 years now.

I read that too that apple was releasing an exclusive clear case. I am thinking it is the OtterBox Vue case on the site now. That's the one I got. It isn't even on Otterbox's website

I LOVE the coral color. If I were getting the Xr that would be it.

I ordered the red and now kinda digging the coral! It's a nice color! Hmmmm it isnt too late to switch haha. So far I already switched from black to red...now I'm considering red to coral

Now I don’t think I’d do that lol. Coral would be my 5th choice. Black 6th.

Very good find! I was using the Apple store app and it clearly says available only at Apple. I may order it and compare it to the Speck.

The OtterBox one has a slight design to it which I like. If Apple came out with one it would have gone on sale today with the preorder

I just ordered it. I’ll keep either it or the Speck. See which I like better. May keep both.
