I didn't figure out purple.

Neither did I. There's a lot of that going around.

For a minute, I thought "motor" might be "Motorola," but it has been a long time since I have seen a Motorola phone, and I am so used to calling Apple phones iPhones" and it has been a while since I have even heard of a "Google phone" that I didn't make any connection. For the record, mine's a Samsung...

Went for the wrong obvious one...

In case anyone is wondering what the purple ones have in common:

D stands for dimensional in, for example, "3-D"
D stands for drive on the shifter of an automatic transmission
D stands for defense when fans use it, usually in football or basketball
D stands for democrat when, for example, referring to a member of Congress - e.g. "Catherine Cortez Masto (D-NV)"
