Definitive New Leak Confirms Key Design Changes

With less than two months until the release of the next iPhones (read full details of the exact date expected here), there’s a lot that has been reported by now. But now it looks like the colors of the iPhones are coming into focus.
Apple iPhone 16 Pro Max: what colors will come to the iPhone 17 Pro?
A new report from Macworld claims that the colors have been confirmed in what it describes as the “definitive lineup thanks to our sources.”
Why are colors so important? Well, for a start they’re a way to show everyone that you have the new model if you pick this year’s hero color. And in a less shallow reason, it’s a way to express yourself, especially if you’re one of those brave (foolhardy) people who don’t clad their expensive phone in a case.
As the report says, recently a reputable leaker, Sonny Dickson, has said that the iPhone 17 Pro range will include two colors not in the iPhone 16 Pro range: dark blue and copper.
“ Independent sources who requested anonymity told Macworld that we can indeed expect these new colors for the iPhone 17 lineup. The same source independently verified the Desert Titanium color for the iPhone 16 Pro before last year’s launch,” the report says.
Although the publication says that its list is definitive, it’s worth noting that there is still some uncertainty about the exact color list. Macworld says there are two colors which will be the same as the iPhone 16 Pro, black and white. Let me stop you there: Apple almost always tweaks its colors from generation to generations so don’t be surprised if even black and white turn out to be different this year, especially if rumors of different case materials prove to be true.
But for sure, versions of black and white are likely to be present.
A new report from leaker Majin Bu says that these four will be the iPhone 17 Pro range, disagreeing with Macworld which says there’ll be a gray option, too.
Majin Bu claims the copper will be “a bold new orange”. Pro shades are invariably muted, so this would be a big departure. Personally, I think copper is more likely.
Even so, these four shades look like being the iPhone 17 Pro color range.
