Recent leaks have sparked excitement among Apple enthusiasts, revealing potential color options for the much-anticipated iPhone 17. A new report has surfaced, backed by what is described as an “internal report,” confirming previous leaks. This report lists a total of six colors for the standard model of the iPhone 17, four for the newly introduced iPhone 17 Air, and five for the premium iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max models. The color palette aligns closely with other leaks that emerged over the past week.
According to the recent findings, the color options for the iPhone 17 include:
Black (same as the iPhone 16) White (same as the iPhone 16) Steel Gray (Pantone 18-4005-TPG) Green (Pantone 2282 U) Purple (Pantone 530 U) Light Blue (Pantone 658 U)Macworld has corroborated these details, citing independent sources and access to “an internal document with the Pantone colors used as a reference for designing and building the new iPhones.”
The iPhone 17 Air is expected to feature a distinct color palette that aims to differentiate it from the standard model. The colors confirmed for this new model include:
Black (same as the iPhone 16) White (brighter/colder than the iPhone 16) Light Blue (Pantone 657 U) Light Gold (Pantone 11-0604 TPG Gardenia)The premium iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max models will also feature an attractive range of colors, which include:
Black (same as the iPhone 16 Pro) White (same as the iPhone 16 Pro) Gray (similar to Natural Titanium) Dark Blue (Pantone 19-4025 TPG Mood Indigo) Orange (Pantone 1501243 TCX Papaya)Filipe Esposito from Macworld points out that Apple seems to have made subtle adjustments to even the most minor color variations. Notably, the blue option for the iPhone 17 Air is reported to be slightly lighter than its counterpart in the standard iPhone 17. This shift appears to reflect Apple's intention to create less saturated colors for the iPhone 17 Air, enhancing the perception of lightness for a device that is expected to weigh around 145 grams and measure 5.5 mm in thickness.
While this difference may seem minimal, it aligns with Apple's meticulous attention to detail, a hallmark of the brand's identity.
The upcoming iPhone 17 series promises to offer a rich variety of colors, appealing to a wide range of users. With these leaks and confirmations, fans are eager to see how these colors will look in person and how they will influence the overall design of the new models.
