The iPhone 17 Professional Would possibly Are available in But One other Shade of Blue, When Different Colours Exist

Moreover an enormous digicam bump, this yr’s iPhone 17 Professional will reportedly are available a sky blue, according to MajinBu, a prolific leaker who has beforehand shared correct info on Apple merchandise previous to their official announcement.

Apple tends to play it protected on the subject of colour choices for its top-of-the-line iPhone Professional and Professional Max. Your decisions are sometimes extra mature—sorry, skilled—colours like black, white, grey, or some shade of gold. Solely normie iPhone customers need enjoyable and vibrant colours (just like the teal iPhone 16!) apparently.

It’s not that I hate sky blue—the hue would possibly resemble the sky blue M4 MacBook Air—or blue. Blue is definitely my favourite colour. But when the rumor finally ends up appropriate, I simply have one thought: blue once more?

Apple’s already achieved blue iPhone Professionals, together with ones which can be sky blue-ish just like the “sierra blue” iPhone 13 Pro in 2021. Earlier than that, there was a darker “pacific blue” iPhone 12 Pro launched in 2020. Final yr, the iPhone 15 Pro got here in “blue titanium.” That’s already three shades of blue!

Certain, Apple has tried non-blue colours just like the “alpine green” iPhone 13 Pro and “deep purple” iPhone 14 Pro, however these colours had been so muted, they actually don’t shine via once you throw a case on. Would it not kill Apple to present the iPhone Professional collection no less than one model with some vibrancy?

Gizmodo workers appear to agree. Client tech reporter Kyle Barr needs a banana yellow (just like the iPhone 14/14 Plus) and Gizmodo alum and present contributing author Alex Cranz needs Apple to deliver again the alpine inexperienced. I’m demanding Apple go brighter. Someone discover Apple’s “courage” and toss in Tim Prepare dinner’s path. Give us a brand new shade of the coral and lime inexperienced final seen on the iPhone 5C. Or how a few pink? Apple’s pink iPhones have been achieved in partnership with PRODUCT(RED), however the last one was the iPhone 14 and 14 Plus in 2022. Apple now not sells any the last-standing PRODUCT(RED) iPhone SE after it launched the iPhone 16e earlier this yr.

It’s unlikely that Apple will shock us with an thrilling new colour for the iPhone 17 Professional and 17 Professional Max this yr. I assume if you happen to do like blue, Apple will likely be joyful to promote you one more shade of it.
