This year could be a significant one for Apple, as rumors suggest the release of a bronzy-orange iPhone Pro. This color option has not been seen in an Apple mobile device since the 2010 iPod nano and iPod shuffle models, marking a fifteen-year gap.
Orange was briefly introduced to the iPod nano lineup in 2008 but was phased out by 2012. The color made a comeback in 2021 with Apple’s colorful new M1-powered iMacs, reminiscent of the iconic “Tangerine” iMac G3 from 1999.
The return of orange extended to the second-generation AirPods Max, showcasing Apple’s willingness to embrace the long-neglected hue. Now, rumors suggest that the iPhone 17 Pro could come in dark blue and orange variants, departing from the usual neutral shades.
Leaks from reliable sources like Sonny Dickson hint at vibrant orange accents on the upcoming iPhone 17 camera buttons, indicating a possible shift towards more saturated colors overall. With Apple’s new iPhone lineup set to launch soon, anticipation is high for the potential expansion of color options.
While these rumors should be taken with caution, the possibility of a more colorful iPhone Pro lineup is an exciting prospect for Apple enthusiasts.
