I also do think that Hibiscus is very close to the Red Raspberry from the summer season... And I'm also kinda sad that Apple reused the same colors again and again. Where is purple? Where is bright orange shades? Where is green?

Bummer! I'd def like to see more purple, Ultraviolet is my fav.

Was also thinking of Hibiscus cos it looked more pink in the pics, but I already have Red & Red Raspberry.
 
Im also looking to get the hibiscus sport band i thought its like hot pink color...

Just got all three of the new colors! Unlike the fall colors (Blue Horizon = Blue Cobalt, Nectarine = Apricot), this time they are quite distinctive from the previous colors.

Hibiscus looks like a “pinker” red raspberry. Definitely a cute color! Now I’m tempted to get the Sport Loop in Hibiscus as well...

Mellow Yellow is unlike any previous yellow color, it’s similar to the color of butter or white chocolate, very pretty!

Pacific Green is much darker than Dark Teal. It’s like the rubber version of Forest Green. Unlike some previous comments, I do think it looks more green than blue in person. Orginally I didn’t order it but after seeing it in person, I like it a lot. ;)

For some reason, the MY looks like Antique white in my photos. natural light at my front door. But, it is yellower! Mine were all pretty dirty..lots of dust, lint right out of the box, mostly the dark Pacific.
MY, Lemonade, Flash and Pollen.

I’d love to see that pink on the watch instead of the stock photos from Apple! :) If you don’t mind taking a pic for me.

Hahaha but I’m wearing Pacific Green today! I’ll send you some pictures of Hibiscus when I get home tonight.

Here’s Pacific Green (in the low light of the metro it looks almost black, haha)

Maybe we could call it “Pink Raspberry”, hahaha ;)

I think "Pink Raspberry" is pretty spot-on; it is definitely the "pinkest" red band I have, but not overtly so (it is not nearly a "hot pink"). As you said, very pretty/cute and absolutely different from all the other reds.

Left to right: "Pink", "Red Raspberry", "Hibiscus", "Camellia", "Rose Red".

Edit: P.S. We all know how hard it is to capture the real (perceived) colour of the watch bands in a picture. I usually use my iPhone because it‘s obviously the most convenient way to snap and post a picture (and the camera is absolutely „good enough“ for most casual shots), but this time I used my „real“ camera (an Olympus Pen-F), and I have to say it absolutely NAILED all the different hues of red in the picture. So maybe „real“ cameras still have a place in this smartphone-centric world after all … ;)

Hello all, can anyone please share a more detailed picture of Pacific Green band? In the light, in dark, and compare with some dark blue bands? On Space Gray watch if possible but I will be glad for any pictures :)
 
So happy! I found a Black Nike reflective sport loop on the Dutch marketplace.
I paid 54 euros. Someone bought the series 4 and didn't want the band...
Sometimes you just have to be lucky... :)

FYI - Best Buy has a 50% off sale on OEM apple bands - ends Saturday. Just snagged a 38mm Walnut for $20 (had a $5 coupon) didn’t want to at first but I thought to myself that it couldn’t be beat.. would rather spend that than $50. Anyone have pictures of the walnut? I have the 40mm gold alum so I think it’d pair up pretty well.
