Would you like some cheese with that iPhone? If a new rumor is true, the big new bold color for Apple’s next flagship phones will look more like red wine than bright orange.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The latest rumor comes from Macworld, which cites a leak from an unnamed source close to the supply chain. According to the leak, the upcoming\u00a0iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max will have a dark cherry color option. The source also said that those new flagships, as well as Apple’s first foldable phone, will launch in September.\u00a0<\/p>\n
According to different reports over the past several months, the foldable might be named the Ultra, the Fold or even the iFlip.<\/p>\n
Apple has not officially announced anything — not the iPhone 18 Pro or Pro Max, nor the foldable. There have been tons of rumors about specs and release dates, but nothing has been verified.<\/p>\n
A representative for Apple did not immediately respond to a request for comment.<\/p>\n
CNET is keeping up with all the latest iPhone 18 Pro rumors<\/span><\/span>, including release dates, design, colors, specs and\u00a0Apple’s first foldable<\/span><\/span> (and don’t always believe your eyes<\/span><\/span>).<\/p>\n Read more<\/strong>: I Turned My iPhone 17 Pro From Cosmic Orange to Pink<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n Apple is always changing colors for its top iPhone models. You can see all the colors over the years here.<\/p>\n The rumor about the iPhone 18 Pro coming in dark cherry doesn’t come out of the, ahem, blue. Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman reported several weeks ago<\/span><\/span> that Apple was considering red as its new vibrant color. Last year, for the iPhone 17 Pro, the new breakout color was cosmic orange.<\/p>\n Macworld’s source also said that Apple is toying with two other colors for the iPhone Pro roster — light blue and a dark shade of gray. The source said Apple is also considering a silver variation of the current iPhone 17 Pro.<\/p>\n Macworld’s source listed these Pantone color codes as being used internally by Apple: Light Blue (Pantone 2121), Dark Cherry (Pantone 6076), Dark Gray (Pantone 426C) and Silver (Pantone 427C). Note the absence of a solid black hue, as a previous rumor suggested.<\/p>\n The Macworld source said the foldable might have fewer color options than the iPhone Pro 18 and Pro Max. Macworld said Apple engineers are experimenting with a classic silver-and-white model and indigo, like that of the deep blue of the iPhone 17 Pro.<\/p>\n Take it with a grain of salt, but Macworld’s source last year did confirm the cosmic orange that eventually was the iPhone 17 Pro color splash.<\/p>\n<\/div>\nFoldable, not so colorful?<\/h2>\n
