If you have been following this blog, you would have know how much I hated the Apple AirPods’ design. I certainly won’t part with $159 for it, let alone $399. Wait, what? There is a pair of AirPods that cost that much? As a matter of fact, there is and it certainly is a product only hardcore Apple fanatics need apply. The ColorWare custom-colored AirPods in question is not coated in gold, but may very be more alluring than gold to true Macintosh fans because, it is custom colored in retro Apple computer color.

ColorWare Adds A Nostalgic Feel To Joy-Cons And Pro Controller
Last August, we were enamored by ColorWare’s Joy-Cons Classic, the Joy-Con controllers for Nintendo Switch that has been customized with to look like the classic NES console. All 25 sets were swiftly snapped up and if you missed it, fret not, cos’ ColorWare has brought it back. Well, kind of… The Joy-Cons 8-bit, as it is called, is not quite the Joy-Cons Classic. It is close enough though, sporting a Nintendo gray and black design with hints of red on the ABXY buttons. Continue reading ColorWare Adds A Nostalgic Feel To Joy-Cons And Pro Controller

It is ridiculously stylish, but of course, red and steel combo may not be everyone’s cuppa and that’s really not a problem if you just want to get away from the predominantly black unit. I mean, it is ColorWare that we are talking about and therefore, myriad of color options is at your disposal if you are willing to drop the right amount of money for it.

Colorware Gave iPhone 6s A Very Retrolicious Makeover
You may have queued for countless hours or even days or weeks for a spanking new iPhone 6s (or 6s Plus, whichever is your poison), but we hate to break it to you that while you may have gotten the device a few days or weeks earlier than some people, exclusivity is not yours to brag.

If this brutal fact kills you and worship Apple, then perhaps, the Colorware Limited iPhone 6s Plus Retro is what you need.
