Sudden Controversy Over Colors
In a year marked by heated discussions about color options, Apple launched the bold “Cosmic Orange” and replaced the expected black with a dark blue. Meanwhile, silver remained the only option that appealed to longtime fans of the brand.
A well-known Chinese leaker on Weibo revealed Apple’s intention to abandon traditional colors in the iPhone 18 Pro, moving towards unfamiliar colors such as brown (coffee), purple, and red (wine), a bold move likely aimed at mitigating the disappointment caused by the colors of the current generation.
The Evolution of Pro Phone Colors Through History
Pro phone colors have undergone a remarkable evolution over the years:
2019: Classic colors like dark green and space gray.
2020-2021: More daring colors like Pacific Blue and Sierra Blue.
2022: Deep Purple as a distinctive option.
2023-2024: A shift towards quieter titanium colors.
2025: Return to bold colors with Cosmic Orange and Dark Blue.
With the expected launch of four models in 2026, including Apple’s first foldable phone, we are likely to see more leaks in the coming months, which may reveal Apple’s new strategy in color options, especially in light of the negative feedback on the colors of the current generation. (Bgr)
