Highlights Standard iPhone 16 models likely to retain classic colour options New "Rose Titanium" expected for iPhone 16 Pro models Potential display size increase for iPhone 16 Pro and Pro Max Official unveiling anticipated at Apple's September event TF Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo shared a first glimpse at the colour options most likely to represent Apple's forthcoming iPhone 16 series, landing this autumn. Kuo shared his predictions for the colours that will feature on the iPhone 16, iPhone 16 Plus, iPhone 16 Pro, and iPhone 16 Pro Max on the social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter. Standard iPhone 16 Models to Stay Classic iPhone 16 Colour Options Reportedly Revealed; New ‘Rose Titanium’ Variant for Pro Models The basic iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus will most probably use the same colour scheme as their predecessors, namely iPhone 15 series, believes Kuo. This suggests that familiar colours, like black, green, pink, and blue, will probably be back again. There's one big change coming, though: Kuo thinks the current pale yellow option will be replaced with something he calls "white," which might be Apple's "Starlight" tint, a whiteish-gold colour. Titanium Tones for Pro Models New "Rose Titanium" expected for iPhone 16 Pro models Kuo expects that Apple will retain the "Natural Titanium," "Black Titanium," and "White Titanium" options found on the iPhone 15 Pro models for the higher-end iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max. But there's a catch: the current "Blue Titanium" colour may be axed. Apple promotes the new Rose Gold iPhone 6s in 2015 Replacing it might be a new "Rose Titanium" option, giving warmth to the Pro lineup colour palette.
