Pink mobile phones have a lot of advantages, even if your favorite color is not pink. For instance, most electronic products start out in basic black when they’re first introduced. They only branch out to different colors once they become widely popular. If a pink version is available of the cell phone you want, that means that you’ll probably have an easier time of replacing it should it break.
If you’re prone to losing things, a pink cell phone might be really useful to you. If you happen to leave it on the sofa, or if it falls on the carpet, it will stand out so that it’s easy to spot. Unless it falls on a pink carpet, which isn’t likely!
Pink is associated with a younger crowd. Most likely, a cell phone that comes in that color would be designed by the manufacturer to withstand more punishment. This is because children and teenagers tend to be more careless.
Pink is a lighter shade of red, which is the color most often used for warnings such as stop signs or traffic lights. Having a pink phone may help discourage you from overusing your phone. While this might help if you are close to running out of minutes, it can also prevent you from making calls that may seem trivial but are actually important. For example, if you are almost positive that you’re having dinner with someone at a certain time but not completely sure, you might keep from calling because the color of your cell phone seems too threatening. Since pink has a bit of white mixed in, it will seem safer to make the call and find out that indeed dinner was at a different restaurant.
Of course, some women consider pink to be fashionable. My word of advice to such women is, Don’t overdo it. If you’re getting five different cell phones to match your five shades of lipstick, I would say you’re overdoing it. If this description fits you, I beg you to reconsider, and find something better to do with your time.
When I was little I heard the famous poem by Gelett Burgess about purple cows: “I never saw a purple cow, I never hope to see one.” Before writing this article, I would gladly have substituted “pink cell phone” for “purple cow”. But I’ve changed my mind. I can see now that pink mobile phones have a real practical use. So I no longer dread the prospect of seeing a pink cell phone someday. However, there’s one par of Burgess’ poem that I still agree with: “I’d rather see than be one.” I don’t think I’ll budge on that position!
