Although several months remain before the official unveiling of the iPhone 17 series—which will include the standard model, iPhone 17 Pro (and Pro Max), and the new ultra-thin model iPhone 17 Air—a recent rumor circulating online suggests the base model might feature two new color options. Let’s explore the details.
Two New iPhone 17 Colors Under Consideration
According to leaker Majin Bu, the standard iPhone 17 may come in two new colors: purple (previously seen on iPhone 12, 13, and 15) and green, which is currently in development. Apple is reportedly still deciding which of the two colors to launch globally.
Among the most notable updates to the standard iPhone 17 model are a larger display and a 120 Hz refresh rate, a feature that has so far been exclusive to the Pro models. Internally, the device is expected to run on the A19 chip, supporting the latest Apple Intelligence features, the company’s proprietary AI platform.
Significant changes are also expected for the front-facing camera, which might include a new 24-megapixel sensor, an upgrade from the 12-megapixel sensors used in previous versions.
iPhone 17 Release Window
While there’s no confirmed release date yet, the iPhone 17 lineup is expected to debut between September and October.
It’s important to note that these are currently unverified rumors. We await official confirmation—or denial—from Apple. Stay tuned for updates, which are likely to emerge in the coming weeks or months.
