iPhone 17 And iPhone 17 Air Unprecedented Design Changes Revealed In New Leak
Updated July 20 with further color details for more upcoming iPhones. With less than two months until the release of the next iPhones (read full details of the exact date expected here), there's a lot that has been reported by now. But now it looks like the colors of the iPhones are coming into focus. The latest data has information about the regular iPhone 17, too. Plus, there's some surprising information about the fourth model, the so-called iPhone 17 Air — if accurate it's unprecedented in Apple's iPhone design changes. Apple iPhone 16 Pro Max: what colors will come to the iPhone 17 Pro? A new report from Macworld claims that the colors have been confirmed in what it describes as the 'definitive lineup thanks to our sources.' Why are colors so important? Well, for a start they're a way to show everyone that you have the new model if you pick this year's hero color. And in a less shallow reason, it's a way to express yourself, especially if you're one of those brave (foolhardy) people who don't clad their expensive phone in a case. As the report says, recently a reputable leaker, Sonny Dickson, has said that the iPhone 17 Pro range will include two colors not in the iPhone 16 Pro range: dark blue and copper. ' Independent sources who requested anonymity told Macworld that we can indeed expect these new colors for the iPhone 17 lineup. The same source independently verified the Desert Titanium color for the iPhone 16 Pro before last year's launch,' the report says. Although the publication says that its list is definitive, it's worth noting that there is still some uncertainty about the exact color list. Macworld says there are two colors which will be the same as the iPhone 16 Pro, black and white. Let me stop you there: Apple almost always tweaks its colors from generation to generations so don't be surprised if even black and white turn out to be different this year, especially if rumors of different case materials prove to be true. But for sure, versions of black and white are likely to be present. A new report from leaker Majin Bu says that these four will be the iPhone 17 Pro range, disagreeing with Macworld which says there'll be a gray option, too. It's worth noting that four is the number of colors that Apple has stuck to for its Pro models for years. The only recent exception was the iPhone 13 Pro and Pro Max, when the initial September 2021 range of four colors had a handsome alpine green hue added six months later. And, to add, whatever colors the iPhone 17 Pro will have, the Pro Max will exactly mirror it. Majin Bu claims the copper will be 'a bold new orange'. Pro shades are invariably muted, so this would be a big departure. Personally, I think copper is more likely. Even so, these four shades look like being the iPhone 17 Pro color range. So, how about the regular iPhone 17? Macworld claims six colors are coming — again, this is one more than is usual and the only time there have been six was also 2022 when the iPhone 13 series added a green version. Which means it's possible that one of these colors will be missing in September, to be added later. The current range is one of the best in recent years, I'd say, with black and white supplemented by pink and the two standouts: teal and aquamarine. Macworld says white and black, will stay (which seems very likely) while the rest of the range will be steel gray, green, purple and light blue. How they will compare to the iPhone 16 shades in terms of vividness remains to be seen. Finally, what about the fourth phone of the series, the super- slim version that's expected, possibly called the iPhone 17 Air? According to Macworld, something is coming that has never happened before: the fourth iPhone will have its own range of colors rather than aping the regular iPhone. The fourth model first appeared in 2020, when the iPhone 12 was matched with a smaller sibling, the iPhone 12 mini. Both it and the 2021 iPhone 13 mini offered a form factor similar to the iPhone SE, but with a much bigger display thanks to its all-screen front. However, in terms of colors, it exactly matched the larger base iPhone. Then in 2022 Apple ditched the smaller model and replaced it with a bigger one, called the iPhone 14 Plus, similarly sized to the iPhone 14 Pro Max but with fewer cameras and components that weren't quite so cutting-edge. The same thing happened with the iPhone 15 Plus and the current iPhone 16 Plus. Again, in terms of color, the bigger phone matched the regular iPhone. So, it's a sign of how different Apple is hoping the iPhone 17 Air will be, as it will have its own color palette. Macworld claims there will be four colors (though again it's possible that one of them might be held back for a mid-cycle addition). First, there'll be black — always the easiest shade to predict — and this will be the same as the iPhone 16 and iPhone 17. However, the second color, white, will not look the same as the iPhone 16 or this year's base model. If you're wondering how white can be different, the report says it's brighter and/or colder in its design than the iPhone 16's white option. Apple first introduced a white iPhone with the iPhone 3G and it was strikingly different from other phones on the market. This sounds like it could be similarly eye-catching. The other two predicted colors are light blue and light gold. According to these reports, 'the blue iPhone 17 Air will be slightly lighter than the base iPhone 17. Apple reportedly wants less saturated colors for the iPhone 17 Air to reinforce the lightness of the device,' Macworld says. If correct, we now know the complete range of iPhone colors and, therefore, strong ideas of what this year's models will look like.

Here's what Warren Buffett says will be the ultimate growth industry!
Artificial intelligence (AI) has a lot of investors excited right now, yet billionaire investor Warren Buffett isn't one of them. Despite owning shares in companies such as Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) and Amazon, none of these investments were made solely based on their AI potential. In fact, Buffett seems to be quite cautious of the technology. Instead, he's warned investors that AI will give rise to an enormous amount of fraud, making scamming the biggest 'growth industry of all time'. Sticking to his principles Despite his hesitant stance, Buffett isn't blind to the benefits of this emerging technology. In the right hands, AI can be a remarkable tool with countless applications in finance, cybersecurity, automation, and work productivity among others. However, with so many businesses claiming to be the next big thing, Buffett and his team are remaining disciplined. They're focusing on the industries they understand the most, zooming in on the businesses with the widest competitive moats. That means rather than chasing speculative AI stocks, he's looking at the established players across the sectors that can leverage AI to improve their existing operations, using the proceeds to run phenomenal capital-return programmes. And right now, Apple seems to fit that bill. Exploring Apple's potential While Buffett's investment vehicle Berkshire Hathaway has trimmed its position in Apple throughout last year, it remains one of its largest holdings, representing 24% of the portfolio. As one of the largest consumer technology companies in the world, Apple produces an enormous amount of free cash flow driven by a loyal customer ecosystem. Since 2013, the company's been busy consistently buying back its own shares, with around $775bn spent over the last 12 years. To put this into perspective, that's enough money to buy the entirety of Visa with another $100bn to spare. And with management approving yet another $100bn in buybacks during 2025, the rewards for shareholders look set to continue, especially if the firm can deliver on its AI ambitions. So far, Apple has lagged when it comes to AI implementation. The rollout of Apple Intelligence has actually been quite slow and riddled with delays, which have seemingly continued into 2025. And the ongoing trade disruptions from newly-announced US tariffs aren't exactly helping matters, which have led to around a quarter of Apple's market-cap being lost in 2025. However, that might soon change. The company has a record number of revamped product launches in the second half of 2025. That includes four new iPhone models, and updates for its AirPods, Apple Watches, iPads, and MacBooks. And with plans to hire another 20,000 people over the next four years to expand its R&D capabilities, the firm might soon be catching up on the AI front, generating even more cash flow over the long run. Perhaps that's why Buffett continues to hold a significant chunk of shares. And it's why I think investors may want to take a closer look at this business.

Apple accuses YouTube influencer of illegally leaking iOS 26
YouTube influencer Jon Prosser allegedly violated Apple's intellectual property rights by illegally accessing and releasing trade secrets regarding the tech firm's iOS 26 operating system before its launch. Prosser and co-defendant Michael Ramacciotti allegedly misappropriated trade secrets and violated the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act, Apple says in a federal lawsuit filed Thursday in the U.S. District Court for Northern California. Apple revealed its iOS 26 operating system on June 9 during its Worldwide Developers Conference but says Prosser released important details two months earlier. Prosser's YouTube channel, 'Front Page Tech,' commonly predicts tech launches of consumer goods, including popular Apple products. Apple says he and Ramacciotti schemed to 'break into an Apple development iPhone, steal Apple's trade secrets and profit from the theft,' Wired reported on Friday. 'Prosser, working with defendant Michael Ramacciotti, improperly accessed and disclosed Apple's highly confidential, unreleased software designs, including details regarding the unreleased iOS 19 operating system, which is now known as iOS 26, for Apple mobile devices,' Apple says in the lawsuit. Apple accuses the pair of conspiring to break into Apple employee Ethan Lipnik's development iPhone to obtain Apple's trade secrets. Lipnik worked for Apple from 2023 to 2025, when he was terminated by Apple over the leak, Business Insider reported. The tech firm says it received an anonymous tip on April 4 that accuses either Prosser or Ramacciotti, who shared housing with Lipnik, of engaging the Apple employee in a FaceTime call that discussed the pending iOS 26 release. The unreleased operating system at the time was known as iOS 19 among Apple employees. The anonymous tip says Prosser obtained details on the unreleased operating system's lock screen, home screen, app animations and app interfaces. It also says Prosser had video from the FaceTime call that shows the operating system's unique interface. Apple claims Prosser learned Ramacciotti needed money and roomed with Lipnik, who worked on the unreleased operating system. Prosser and Ramacciotti 'jointly planned to access Apple's confidential and trade secret information through Mr. Lipnik's Apple-owned development iPhone,' Apple says. The tech firm also says Lipnik provided it with an audio message from Ramacciotti that alleges he used location tracking to learn when Lipnik would be gone for an extended period. Apple says the message indicates Ramacciotti acquired Lipnik's passcode and 'broke into his development iPhone,' which Lipnik did not properly secure in accordance with company policy. 'As he detailed in the audio message, Mr. Ramacciotti made a video call to Mr. Prosser and 'showed [the] iOS' on the development iPhone,' Apple claims. 'He demonstrated several features and applications, disclosing details of the unreleased iOS 19 operating system,' Apple says. Prosser denies Apple's claims against him. 'This is not how the situation played out on my end,' Prosser said in an X post on Thursday. 'I did not 'plot' to access anyone's phone,' Prosser continued. 'I did not have any passwords. I was unaware of how the information was obtained.' Prosser said he is 'looking forward to speaking with Apple on this.' Apple says it suffered financial losses exceeding $5,000 over a one-year period and seeks monetary and punitive damages in amounts to be proven at trial, plus interest. It also seeks injunctive relief to cease Prosser and Ramacciotti's alleged release of Apple's trade secrets to third parties without written consent and to return or help Apple to locate and destroy any trade secrets that might remain under their control.
