Honestly I didn’t know that when Apple held its launch event and introduced the iPhone 5 models, there was actually a “gold or champagne” model of the iPhone 5s. In fact Forbes says that it was the most popular model out of the estimated 9 million sold in just the first three days. The Wall Street Journal says Apple has asked its suppliers to increase production of the gold-colored iPhone 5S by an additional one-third after seeing strong demand.

Maybe this prompted Samsung to also come out with the gold version of the Samsung S4 and even a pink one. Yesterday Samsung Arabia tweeted about a new Galaxy S4 Gold edition. I guess Samsung can also say its has a gold version but I don’t think it will be available to everyone.
