Another leak suggests “iPhone 9” as the name for the lower cost LED phone - this Chinese language Apple page is consistent with the previously reported English language one...

High chance of being fake, obviously...

I think this is the third thread in the last few days about this? Granted this is a Chinese site, but still.

It’s similar to the English one but shows more colours (wider)

For me the fact it’s in another language is significant, but there’s too many rumours about XR being the name now

While iPhone 9 makes so much more sense to me, Gurman has more credibility in my eyes than this so I’m expecting iPhone XR at this point

One thing is for sure, we know we can expect at least a variety of colors for the iPhone 6.1 LCD model, I don’t believe all the colors above, but I believe there might be a blue and red. Apple tends to be more neutral with their color base, And some of these acrylic colors seem ‘Off’ to me.

Yeah.
Although this could be apple’s response to that very criticism.. that Apple have been so conservative with the silver/grey stalwart colours, and gentle forays into gold...
So here we go with proper vivid colours.
So I think it’s possible...

Definitely possible. And I welcome change, and Apple should try to mix things up once in a while with vibrant colors to the consumer that might be different. The first thing the consumer chooses when they are looking for a phone, is the color that they likely want, followed by the storage. And what better way to market a new iPhone with new color schemes.

Two more days! Based off those sketchy photos, I would go Cobalt Blue.
