iPhone 17 Colors: Rumor Has It This Could Be Apple's Full iPhone Color Lineup
We've heard rumors that the iPhone 17 base model could come in purple, green and sky blue. But two other familiar colors are now rumored to be included in the options -- totaling five possibilities for the base model. The rumored iPhone 17 Air could come in four.
Over the years, we've been surprised by new iPhone colors, like yellow, pink and ultramarine. The current iPhone 16 and 16 Plus color options are ultramarine, pink, teal, white and black. The iPhone Pro and Pro Max come in four titanium colors: desert, natural, black and white.
The rumored iPhone 17 is rumored to drop in September, so until Apple says more, we're all playing the guessing game, with the help of some leaks and rumors.
Here's what we're hearing about possible iPhone 17 colors and a look at past color options.

I'm Impressed With iOS 26. Apple Just Made iPhones Better
The rumored full color lineup
Here's the rumored full lineup from user, yeux1122. Some of the lineup follows other rumors we heard earlier this summer. More on that below.
The iPhone 17 base model could come in these colors:
Black
Blue
Silver
Purple
Green
The iPhone 17 Air could be released in these colors:
Black
Light blue
Light gold
Silver
Black and silver don't come as a surprise since we've seen both neutral colors in earlier iPhone models and generations. However, the possibility could be welcoming if you use a colored phone cover instead, like me.
The possibility of purple
Well-known leaker Majin Bu posted on X and their blog recently that Apple is testing purple and green, but that purple could be another new color for the iPhone 17's base models.
Bu posted another rumor on X and their blog recently that Apple is testing purple and green, but that purple could be another new color for the iPhone 17's base models.
Bu said that purple could meet Apple's rumored demand for more personalization while blending into Apple's ecosystem for its other products.
If green is added to the iPhone 17 lineup, Bu says it could be a "fresh and natural tone, ideal for a minimalist yet striking aesthetic."
The biggest rumored color so far: sky blue
Here is the MacBook Air M4 in Sky Blue, the same color that the iPhone 17 Pro might come in.
Josh Goldman/CNET
The biggest rumored color for the iPhone 17 is sky blue.
Bu posted the rumor of the new color on their blog, calling it "a refined, bright, and modern shade." But why sky blue?
Perhaps because the latest M4 MacBook Air currently comes in sky blue, so an iPhone with the same color could be an aesthetic win for sky blue MacBook owners.
Could an aluminum iPhone design bring more colors?
Here is the iPhone 16 (left), 16 Plus, 16 Pro and 16 Pro Max.
James Martin/CNET
The iPhone 16 Pro and Pro Max have a titanium frame, but analyst Jeff Pu predicted that the iPhone 17 could usher in the return of the aluminum frame for both the Pro and baseline models, as we've seen with earlier versions like the iPhone 14 lineup. Considering the iPhone 16 Pro and Pro Max's colors are based on titanium, it raises the question: Will an aluminum frame mean new colors?
The one phone in the iPhone 17 lineup that could have a titanium frame is the rumored slimmer iPhone 17 Air, according to Pu. We'll have to wait and see what Apple decides.

A look at past iPhone colors
Here is an iPhone 14 Pro in Deep Purple.
Andrew Lanxon/CNET
Apple likes to release both new and familiar colors for every new iPhone release.
Usually, we see more color variations for the basic models, and more neutral colors for the Pro and Pro Max iPhone models. For instance:
The iPhone 14 came in six colors: midnight, starlight, red, blue, purple and yellow. However, the iPhone 14 Pro and Pro Max models only came in black, silver gold and deep purple. The same is true for the 15 model phones, but Apple offered one fewer color for its base model.
iPhone 15 models were available in pink, yellow, green, blue and black, while Pro and Pro Max models arrived in more neutral tones like white, blue, black and natural titanium.
The iPhone 16 Pro and Pro Max colors didn't change from the iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max. However, the other iPhone 16 models were available in ultramarine, teal, pink, white and black.
How many new colors we may see from the rumored iPhone 17 is still unclear, but as of now, a sky blue option could be in your future.

Cantor outlines how to navigate the emerging Bitcoin treasury sector
- The amount of Bitcoin owned by companies specializing in accruing more of the cryptocurrency is anticipated to rise, according to analysts at Cantor. Many firms have recently embarked on Bitcoin buying sprees, as part of a bid to capitalize on the digital coin's soaring value and hopes for a softer regulatory backdrop. In a note, the analysts led by Brett Knoblauch said these so-called "Bitcoin treasury companies," such as MicroStrategy (NASDAQ:MSTR), Marathon Digital Holdings (NASDAQ:MARA), and CleanSpark (NASDAQ:CLSK), own or have raised capital acquire roughly 904,000 of the digital tokens. "[W]e expect that number to only continue to increase given the capital market advantages these companies have," they argued. They added that "if feels like a new Bitcoin treasury play is emerging every day," fueled by a range of factors, including retail investor enthusiasm, the relative ease of buying stocks compared to cryptocurrencies, and fewer punitive tax rules equities than on digital assets. "Financial engineering" is also seen allowing Bitcoin treasury companies to continuously grow their Bitcoin positions in the future, the analysts predicted. The trend comes as firms are trying to emulate the success of Strategy, the software group formerly known as MicroStrategy, which began building up its Bitcoin stockpile in 2020 and now owns more than $63 billion worth of the world's largest cryptocurrency. Investors have seemingly celebrated the move, with Strategy's stock up by 3,000% since 2020, mirroring a surge in Bitcoin to recent all-time highs. Last week, twenty new public firms announced crypto purchases, the Cantor analysts noted. But "not all Bitcoin treasury companies are created equal" and "some offer better risk/reward than others," they flagged. Perhaps most importantly, these companies need to be able to rake in capital, as this will help facilitate further Bitcoin purchases, the analysts said. "The amount of capital a company has access to in this space is largely driven by trading liquidity. For shares to have a relatively high amount of volume, we believe they need to have a management team that carries weight in the crypto ecosystem," they argued. Buying Bitcoin is crucial for these companies, as their ability to acquire more of the asset will likely determine their long-term performance, the analysts said. "Thus, if we look at multiple of Bitcoin net asset value, a company on a higher multiple today objectively screens more expensive, but that could be entirely justified by the market's perception that it can sustain continued Bitcoin acquisitions over the long run," they wrote. Against this backdrop, the analysts named Strategy as their top pick among Bitcoin treasury names, and initiated coverage of new players Semler Scientific and Fold Holdings with "overweight" ratings.
