Oh man! I've been calling for bronze/copper for a few cycles now. Previous to the Natural Ti, the Pro lineup color palette had grown stale. I'd love to see their take on bronze.
Got a tip for us?

I bought a white iPhone 14PM and regretted it a week later. i got bored of the white color so fast, and wished I had purchased the purple. I lived with it until the 15PM came out, but the boredom of it bothered me so much that I contemplated switching it out several times.
Or clear cases. 😉
Apple cannot even muster the courage to have a Product Red iPhone Pros.
Last time we had a flagship iPhone in Product Red was iPhone 7 and 7 Plus.
Several iPhone 16 Pro rumors have suggested that Apple will eliminate the Blue Titanium option that it used for the iPhone 15 Pro devices and replace it with a rose or gold color. Now, the latest claim is that the new color is actually bronze or has a bronze-like appearance.
According to the Weibo-based leaker "Fixed focus digital," a new iPhone 16 Pro Max color resembles a "bronze hue," while the surrounding frame has a titanium-like appearance. Earlier this month, another Chinese leaker suggested that the color code for the new iPhone 16 Pro color is simply "Rose," not the previous "Rose Gold" color that Apple first offered back in 2015 for the iPhone 6S.
It could well be that the two claims are not contradictory and are in fact referring to the same color, but as seen under different lighting conditions. It's worth mentioning that today's leaker only mentions the iPhone 16 Pro Max in relation to the new color, but it is reasonable to assume that it will come to both Pro models. Other colors that the iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max are expected to be available in include black, white or silver, and gray or "Natural Titanium."
Another rumor suggests that Apple plans to use an improved process for finishing and coloring titanium, which will result in a glossier look than the brushed aluminum finish of the iPhone 15 Pro models. The glossy finish could look much more like the stainless steel that Apple used in prior years, but it will be more resistant to scratches.
Apple typically releases its new iPhone series around mid-September, which means we are about six weeks out from the launch of the iPhone 16 series. Like the iPhone 15 series, this year's lineup is expected to stick with four models, but with the iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max handsets getting slightly bigger display sizes.

Cool!!
/slaps cover on
I had the silver/white 14 Pro Max too. I got so many compliments on it using it caseless. It just “blinged” so much.
They are awful compared to anything. Bright distinctive color on the back, pastel muted 🤮 on the front. I would order an orange one in a heartbeat if it was the bright orange throughout but they ruined it with that trash.
Oh yeah, the pastel fronts are silly. They should be the bright colours throughout.
And then they make the iPhones the same bright colours too!
