iPhone 15 Pro Could Come in Dark Red, With Pink and Light Blue Options for iPhone 15

I really don’t care about iPhone colors until they make them 100% unbreakable from normal human drop height. And even then I’m unsure because without a case with at least some sort of grippy edge, phones tend to slide out of my pockets easily.
I’ve never used a clear case that didn’t look and feel terrible and I’ve tried a lot, except Apple’s, which while I’ll assume is better than the others in most regards, has a really ugly white MagSafe mount that is visible.Clear cases do exist.
The colors they selected for the iMacs aren’t anywhere as garish as their phone colors. They put that stellar green-teal color on the iMac, but then picked a horse-poo green for the iPhone. Why?
I think they think that their pretension comes off as fancy, but every time I buy an iPhone my thinking is “Which one of these colors is the least ugly?” It doesn’t have to be that way.
Both the red for Pro and pink for the normal iPhone look very good.
I’ve been using a clear case with my dark blue 12 Mini. It’s not the same as naked but still gives an glimpse of the color.Clear cases do exist.
Have you seen something that we haven't? As far as I am aware, there currently is no AR/VR device being sold by Apple. Maybe less complaining until we see said device? 🤷♂️
I’ve never used a case and never damaged my iPhones either, and never babied them too. But for me it’s because I used small phones 3.5” - 4”. There was one stint where I tried a big phone and kept dropping it, so I went back to a small phone. My small phone has recently gone kaputz and I can no longer get a new small phone, so I was forced to a big phone, which for me means I have to start using a case. Sad.
apple knows a new colour always gets people to go crazy. That dark red does look good though.
Absolutely fascinating conjecture there.
With every iteration of the iPhone, Apple changes the available color options, often introducing a special color or set of colors that set new iPhones apart from the prior generation. With the iPhone 14 Pro, Apple introduced a dark purple, while the standard iPhone 14 was offered in a purple shade.
Apple's iPhone 15 and 15 Pro models will also come in unique colors, and 9to5Mac says that an unnamed source indicates Apple is working on iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max models in a dark red, which is close to a burgundy shade. The color hex code is #410D0D, described as a dark sienna.
The standard iPhone 15 models could be available in new dark pink and bright, light blue colors. The pink shade, color hex code #CE3C6C is a deeper pink described as "telemagenta." The blue, color hex code #4DB1E2, is described as "picton blue."
The dark red shade that Apple may have planned for the iPhone 15 Pro models would likely be accompanied by standard (PRODUCT)RED devices in a brighter shade, along with more traditional shades close to silver/gold and space gray. iPhone 15 models could have more color options, including colors akin to red, black, and white.
Apple's dark red color would presumably be offered for the titanium finish rumored for the iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max. Apple so far has released titanium Apple Watch models in a standard silver titanium color and a darker titanium color, but red anodization would be entirely new.
According to 9to5Mac's source, the information on the color options is "still early" and "could change" closer to the fall, so the colors shared could be off. As Apple plans devices well in advance of when they launch, design choices will likely be solidified in the near future. Apple is expected to begin the EVT (engineering validation test) phase of iPhone 15 production in March.

I need totally new color like those color shifting paints you get on cars.
The best compromise I can come up with is using Pitaka cases for my phones. Super thin, but still offers the protection I'd like.

They do. Though I hardly ever see anyone using them and they are some of the worst rated cases on Amazon.Clear cases do exist.
Nah that Midnight Green on the 11 Pro did it for me for real.
Extra dope & M*A*S*H AF.
One color they really haven’t done is a metallic burnt orange kind of like a coppery rust color. More metallic than iPhone XS Max. Would like that.
Maybe something like…
Hex #C48723
“Muddy Golden Retriever Bronze” base tones
with notes of “Under-bleached Skid Mark Sepia”
I do tend to upgrade annually but Deep Purple turned out to be the color I didn't know I was waiting for.
On top of that, my particular 14 Pro Max has been fantastic. I've usually had some issue the last few years that made me want to trade in my iphone, like my 12 Pro Max's my messed up display or my 13 Pro's flickery display and wonky camera. Or 11 Pro's terrible battery and propensity to overheat. Previous iPhone's cheesy Intel modems drove me to upgrade.
I do love a deep red, but I can't imagine parting with this phone after only one year, either.
If you put it that way 🤔it looks kinda cool.
Wait, what is this sorcery?
USB-C? Periscope cam? A fancy new colour?
Am I hyped for an iPhone that’s months away?! You bastards at Apple, you finally did it.
