The Magenta is just not too practical.

Especially in a world where getting pink for a man would be considered gay, how could a normal person sport it? If you're going to stand out, it's obviously easier to go for something more aesthetic like White or Cyan rather than attract attention for the wrong reasons if you were to get Magenta.

Yes you could defend yourself about pink being ok for guys, but good luck convincing the people in the bus or street who see you using it - you can't stop what other people think and they're damn right to think anything.

I knew Nokia made a mistake by offering Magenta as a color, they should have chosen something else like Red, Green, Yellow whatever.

And if one wants to think in terms of pink is for women, obviously that's also not true as I bet you've encountered lots of women who don't like pink at all. I could imagine some celebrity buying it, hardly anyone else though.
