Our Sun is basically yellow. Our Sun's surface temperature is higher than that of a red star, and lower than that of a blue star.Other than that, it's hard to make comparisons, since both red stars and blue stars come in VERY different sizes.
Red giant stars are tremendously larger than the sun.
Blue stars are the hottest, and red stars the coolest. Our sun is orangey, so it's kinda in between blue (hot) and red (cool).
Only a red dwarf star is red. Our Sun is a yellow dwarf. A red dwarf is red because it is cool, and cool colours are red whereas hot colours are white and blue.
The sun is catagorized as a "yellow star" This is also known as an intermediate star. Blue stars are the hottest. The Sun is not a blue star. - Em
Well it was blue like a very long time ago because the sun is a star as you know and the phases of color are blue=the hottest than white than yellow than red than boom! no sun but the sun will go boom! in like 7 million years so don't be scared.

The Sun is not red. Its radiation is most intense in the yellow-green part of the spectrum, which is why it is called a "yellow dwarf" star.
They could be Blue Giants, or Red Giants, or Red Supergiants.
No. The sun is smaller than red or blue giants. It appears larger than other stars simply because it is much closer to us.

The blue star is hotter
Only a red dwarf star is red. Our Sun is a yellow dwarf. A red dwarf is red because it is cool, and cool colours are red whereas hot colours are white and blue.
Our Sun is basically an average star - nothing special about it. It's not a massive star and it's not a red dwarf, which is thankful as if it wasn't we wouldn't be around to appreciate it.

Other yellow-white stars like our sun do exist. The color of a star depends on its temperature. The coolest stars are red while the hottest are blue. Our sun falls in the middle of this range.
