Absolutely horrendous! Just make a black @#&ing phone again, Apple, and a bunch of multi-colored leather cases.
Yeah, they should let a designer mock them up. I can see in my head exactly how Apple would do it. These leaks are often correct but the renders are so wrong that it taints them. It taints them with poop.
I can see the beautiful Cosmic Purple in my mind. Darker, touch more blue, metallic sheen. Doesn’t look like a tween lamp shade. A coffee more like rich roasted beans. Doesn’t look like creamy baby poo. And the burgundy more vibrant, less warm, touch lighter. Doesn’t look like a brick in the wall. I would mock them up but I’m in bed about to sleep.
The purple looks very nice. If true, will be very happy to see that Apple is going to have some nice bright color for the Pro. The Burgundy also looks good. Of course have to see whether the color shades will be different or not. Apple can have a dark/black tint on all these and finally it might not be a bright shade like the Orange. Waiting to hear more rumors!
If they bring back Deep Purple again, I will gladly tell Tim Apple to "Shut up and take my $$!".
So maybe will just go ahead and hold onto my 13PM for another year.

And here I was thinking the orange color was awful. These ones actually make orange look good. Now, when you look back at the previous years’ Pro models, you realize how beautiful and elegant they were. These new Pros look like neon-colored, soap-shaped toys you’d find in the kids’ section of a store. Absolutely dreadful. Even the base iPhone looks more premium than these. I really hope they keep the Air in the lineup so people still have the option to buy an iPhone that looks and feels premium.
Finally beautiful colors, I loooooove the burgundy and the coffee. iPhone colors with a few exceptions have always been pale and sterile, with basically no deep colors used, always uninspiring pastels. There really only is the Alpine green of the iPhone 13 I thought was amazing. The RED was saturated but I thought was too primary, just like the "construction" orange this year, but I admire the effort. By default I've always turned to the blue ones as they were the only deep color of each lineup. Now we're talking with those vibrant deep tones. Smartphones have become so important in our daily lives, you want them to have personality like the other items you own, like your clothing or your home decor. That's a step in the right direction !
No, no and no. At this rate, they should offer a way to do any colour that a customer wants. Just buy ColorWare and build it into the checkout process.
Here you go if you want to see those colours done well especially brown. Have a look at the new Vivo X300 range and its colours. Notice that as well featuring brown and purple, both models feature a black.
Over in Europe we seem to have a much wider range of handsets than North America.

How accurate are these early rumors? Were they close in predicting what the iPhone 17's pro colors would be?
No thanks. They can make boring colours but there should definitely be choice of more colourful alternatives. Not all professional people are boring, some like colourful things.
I loved Sierra Blue on the 13 Pro, it was beautiful in person too. That colour was definitely nicer than the regular 13 colours.
