My order of a 13 mini 512 GB in RED and a 13 Pro 256 GB in Sierra Blue had significant PayBright delays during pre-order but in the end, other than wasting two hours of my life, everything held up.
Both devices arrived (in one shipment) at 10:00 in my southern Ontario town. The Sierra Blue is really nice but I am surprised with the RED! I was considering changing my order to Midnight but after seeing how gorgeous and deep the RED colour is there is no way it is going back!
Apple has touched the whole range of red hues for their (PRODUCT)RED devices over the years. I remember darker reds in the iPod nano days but over the years the iPhones have been bright reds, and sometimes leaning orange like the 12 and 12 mini. This new one for the 13 and 13 mini may be my favourite yet. Apple's announcement video didn't do it justice. The glass is a dark red, much closer to a blood-red than I've seen from their devices before. The aluminum chassis and camera 'turrets' are a brighter red that catches the light. No orange here.
