Apple is set to announce its new iPhone 17 lineup later this fall, introducing a variety of fresh colors. The models anticipated include the ultra-thin iPhone 17 Air, the standard iPhone 17, the iPhone 17 Pro, and the iPhone 17 Pro Max. Last year’s iPhone 16 featured soft, pastel-inspired colors such as ultramarine, teal, pink, white, and black.
The absence of the vibrant yellow from the iPhone 15 was notable, with a darker blue hue replacing it. Overall, the iPhone 16 colors presented a more saturated and vivid appearance, particularly with the bolder shades of pink and ultramarine. Currently, rumors surrounding the iPhone 17 suggest testing of new purple and green color options for the base model, according to leaker Majin Bu.
Interestingly, he indicated that out of the two, only one color might make the final cut, with purple being the more likely candidate. Given Bu’s mixed track record on Apple rumors, it’s wise to take this information with caution. Details about the colors for the iPhone 17 Air remain unconfirmed.
For the iPhone 17 Pro models, Apple has traditionally adopted muted tones using titanium. The previous model offered a “Desert Titanium” alongside other color options. This year, it is rumored that the iPhone 17 Pro may feature an aluminum frame and a unique part-aluminum, part-glass design.
One exciting color expected to be unveiled is a new Sky Blue, which aligns with a shade that debuted in the recent M4 MacBook Air models. Majin Bu describes this hue as stunning and dynamic, drawing comparisons to the much-admired Sierra Blue from the iPhone 13 Pro. As the anticipated launch of the iPhone 17 approaches around mid-September, further updates on colors and specifications are expected.
