Apple announced earlier this week that the iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus will soon come in red. You can pre-order your red iPhone now.
The only change to these models, to be clear, is the color.
A portion of proceeds from the new red iPhones will go toward grants that fight HIV and AIDS as part of Product Red, an organization Apple has partnered with since 2006. In the press release announcing the new color, Apple said it had donated more than $160 million to the charity.
I had a chance to go hands-on with the new red iPhones on Tuesday. Let's look at the photos:
Business Insider can confirm: these are the same iPhone 8 models that went on sale last fall. They're just red.
The glass is extremely shiny.
That shininess gives these new iPhones a big downside: They're total fingerprint magnets. After handling the red phones for just a few minutes, they were covered with smudges from my hands.
The phone on the right has Apple's new $99 iPhone X "folio" case on it, which is part of Project Red, but sports more of a cranberry color.
