Availability for the new Yellow models starts next week on Tuesday, March 14. Apple has also added four new colors for the ‌‌iPhone 14‌‌ and ‌‌iPhone 14‌‌ Plus Silicone Cases, including Canary Yellow, Olive, Sky, and Iris.

Not sure if adding a new iPhone color is worth taking the entire Apple store down but okay.

FACT: Apple taking their website down for one product is a marketing ploy, NOT an update. It is, in a sense, "Clickbait"
