Steve Troughton-SmithI am so sick of Apple's device color palette. Dull MacBooks, dull iPhones, dull iPads. Give me iMac-style colors, in ‘consumer' and 'pro' variants, across the entire lineup
stephen ryner jr. 🦉@stroughtonsmith at least we have iMac
derek the solarboi@stroughtonsmith I want a purple MacBook so bad
Brendan@TapForms 🇨🇦@stroughtonsmith I would buy a blue or purple MBP without hesitation.
Manuel Carlos@stroughtonsmith it won’t happen because there’s no incentive. It’s cheaper, safer, less work to make shades of gray and knows we’ll continue to buy their stuff regardless of the color.
Leonick@manuel_carlos_ @stroughtonsmith True, but by that logic why bother making anything but silver/aluminium? People would still buy Macs.

If only this were in the top ten list of things wrong with Apple.

Cody Krieger@stroughtonsmith this has begun to really bother me of late with the pro iphones in particular. just because it’s “pro” doesn’t mean it needs to be boring!
Adam Faircloth@stroughtonsmith my hot take: that silver iMac shouldn't exist. pick a color or get out!
adacosta@stroughtonsmith I think the reason is more complexity and also use case. The #iMac is a computer you don't really hide. Whether its reception, kitchen counter, classroom, lab. A Mac mini, likely gonna be tucked away under a desk mount. Apple knows colors can affect a products resale value, so they are likely not to introduce these on a laptop, because its gonna be hard to get someone to buy a red MacBook Pro when they trade it in. Maybe a third party service is best for that or d-brand.
Brad Romance@stroughtonsmith And sod the pastel fronts, I want the bright orange everywhere!

Dull palette kind of person so it works for me but they really should offer some choice, also where’s the large screen iMac I’ve always been team 27”

Zillatron@stroughtonsmith bring back nanochromaic palette everywhere!
Huh, that's weird.@stroughtonsmith They're more like a Marta Stewart bath soap line.
