  • Apple's new iPhone 15 and 15 Pro models may offer unique colors, including a dark red for the Pro and Pro Max models.
  • The bright colors for the standard iPhone 15 models are a deep pink called "telemagenta" and "picton blue."
  • Challenges to applying bright colors to a metal surface are present due to wear and tear.
  • The iPhone 15 Pro may also feature a new titanium frame.
  • Apple fans are eagerly anticipating the new devices and their potential color options, which are still in development and subject to change.

Apple's new iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Pro models are expected to offer unique colors, including a dark red for the Pro and Pro Max models, according to unnamed sources cited by 9to5Mac. The hex code for the dark sienna color is #410D0D, while the brighter colors for the standard iPhone 15 models are a deep pink called "telemagenta" (#CE3C6C) and "picton blue" (#4DB1E2). Image credit: MacRumors The dark red color may be offered in the rumored titanium finish for the iPhone 15 Pro models, and it would be a departure from Apple's current standard colors of silver/gold and space gray. However, there are challenges to applying such bright colors to a metal surface that is prone to scratches and other wear and tear.

Apple typically releases its Pro lineup with a new special edition color, such as Pacific Blue for the iPhone 12 Pro, Sierra Blue for the iPhone 13 Pro, and Space Black and Deep Purple for the iPhone 14 Pro. The decision on the new colors for the iPhone 15 and 15 Pro is not yet final, but Apple is expected to begin production in March.

In addition to the new colors, the iPhone 15 Pro may also feature a new titanium frame. However, the decision on colors and design features is likely to be solidified soon, as Apple plans its devices well in advance of their launch.

The color options for the iPhone 15 and 15 Pro are still in development and could change before the fall release date. Apple's application process for the new colors on its aluminum and titanium alloy surfaces presents some material and durability challenges. Nonetheless, Apple fans are eagerly anticipating the new devices and their potential color options. Image credit: MacRumors On Wednesday, a leaker shared supposed photos of the base-model iPhone 15 display with Dynamic Island cutout and USB-C port. While these leaks are not yet confirmed, they provide an early glimpse of what Apple may have in store for its new devices. With these exciting new features and colors, Apple fans are eagerly anticipating the release of the iPhone 15 and 15 Pro in the coming months.
