iPhone 17 Pro will come in four colours including a brand NEW shade, leak suggests - here are the stunning hues we expect Apple to bring out
It has only been a few months since Apple launched the latest iPhone. But now, a new leak already gives us a glimpse of what the next-generation iPhone 17 Pro might look like. According to serial Apple leaker Majin Bu, the upcoming flagship device will be available in four stunning colours, including one brand new shade. Majin Bu says that 'sources close to the supply chain ' can confirm this new colour will be a light blue tone called 'Sky Blue'. If you want to get an idea of what that would look like, the colour is already available as an option for the MacBook Air. In the past, Apple only swapped out one shade when moving from the iPhone 15 Pro to the iPhone 16 Pro, so the company might follow the same strategy this year. That would mean we can expect to see the iPhone 17 Pro in Black Titanium, White Titanium, Natural Titanium, and Desert Titanium - with Sky Blue taking the place of one colour. However, on social media, Apple fans are divided over the possible colour, with one complaining: 'Why does every "Pro" colour look like a shade of grey?'. On X, formerly Twitter, the new possible colour has divided Apple fans, with some complaining that it looks 'grey' In a post on his website, Apple leaker Majin Bu claims that Sky Blue is currently the leading contender to become a new colour for the iPhone 17 Pro. Majin writes: 'This shade is among one of the most promising in Apple's labs. And now, the rumors are growing stronger.' He adds that 'several iPhone 17 Pro prototypes have been made in various colors, with Sky Blue currently the frontrunner.' While we know they're due in the autumn, it is still too early to be certain which colours the next generation of iPhones will be available in. However, based on the appearance of the Sky Blue MacBook Air, this colour is certainly subdued enough to fit with Apple's other more muted 'Pro' models. The last time Apple offered an iPhone Pro in any shade of blue was back in 2021 with the iPhone 13 Pro which came in a shade called Sierra Blue. But on X, formerly Twitter, many Apple fans were unenthused by the possibility of another blue shade. One commenter sarcastically said: 'Oh neat, another shade of blue.' Many Apple fans were not impressed, complaining that Sky Blue was yet another shade of blue One commenter complained they were 'tired' of Apple making blue-coloured devices Another Apple fan bluntly called the new design 'trash' The iPhone 17 family iPhone 17 (base model) iPhone Air (ultra-slim) iPhone Pro iPhone Pro Max 'Bro I'm tired of them making blues,' another user moaned. While one added that Sky Blue was 'Sierra blue again'. Meanwhile, some commenters thought that this possible colour option was simply too dull. One Apple user wrote: 'Apple just hates giving the pros some fun colours. Let's give the people the most muted blue possible.' Another bluntly wrote: 'Not buying it if it looks like that. Trash.' However, for fans of Apple's earlier blue options, this rumour was a welcome possibility. 'Sierra blue was the best color on an iPhone until today. So reviving it with a subtle tone could be a massive upgrade from other boring colors,' one fan wrote. A commenter chimed in: 'This is the only color that could possibly pull me away from the gray color I always get.' One commenter said that the similarity to Sierra Blue was a big plus for the potential new colour Another iPhone users said that the potential Sky Blue colour was the only option that would entice them away from a grey colour But before any fans get too excited, it's worth remembering that this is only a rumour for now. Majin Bu does have a fairly good track record of getting things right about upcoming Apple products, but has been known to make mistakes. For instance, this is not the first time that the leaker has claimed to know the upcoming iPhone 17 Pro colour options. In September, they claimed that the options would either be a Titanium Blue or a Titanium Purple. In October, they then claimed that Apple's top contenders were Teal Titanium, Green Titanium, and Dark Green Titanium. Asked by a commenter why Apple had apparently changed its mind on the Teal option, Majin Bu responded: 'Teal green was the ideal candidate, but on the Mac they opted for yuangfeng blue [Sky Blue] and I think they will do the same on the iPhone unless something changes in this period.' So, while we may well get to see a Sky Blue iPhone 17 Pro, there isn't any way to be certain until Apple reveals the colours later this year. Apple did not respond to a request for comment.

Barber released by federal agents after immigration operation in Pomona
A longtime barber and Pomona business owner returned home on Thursday after federal agents arrested him at gunpoint two days ago. "I am happy to be with my family," Martin Majin Leon said in Spanish. He has owned Majin's Barbershop for more than 20 years. While he is an undocumented immigrant, he owns a home in Southern California. "To have a family, to have a house and food on the table," he said. "In Mexico, it's harder to accomplish." Majin has been deported once, but does not have a criminal record. He returned to the United States and applied for a green card, but gave up when someone told him it would take 20 years. He hopes to start over and become a legal resident. "We're hoping to get a good judge that will do research on his life here in the United States to check out his background to see that he's not a criminal," his son Miguel said. The Trump administration has argued that an unprecedented flood of illegal immigration threatens public safety, national security, and costs taxpayers billions. Majin said he has contributed to society and pays his taxes every year. He hopes his message of compassion reaches President Trump. "Find it in his heart not to destroy any more families," Majin said. Majin's family said they used his house as collateral and have a court hearing scheduled for his case. On the same day as Majin's arrest, U.S. Customs and Border Patrol agents also arrested 10 day laborers outside of a Home Depot roughly 3 miles away from Majin's Barbershop.

Federal raid and arrests in Pomona spark concern, outrage in community
A federal raid at a Home Depot store in Pomona has sparked concern as families and community members said a group of day laborers were taken into custody Tuesday. Immigrant rights advocates held a demonstration outside the store, protesting the targeting of those they described as innocent civilians. 'Our people should not be living in fear,' one speaker said. 'Today, approximately between 8:30 a.m. and 9:30 a.m., Border Patrol agents, both with marked and unmarked vehicles, showed up to Home Depot from two entrances,' said Alexis Teodoro, a Worker Rights Director with the Pomona Economic Opportunity Center. 'They took approximately 15-20 day laborers.' Video of the incident showed vehicles appearing to belong to Border Patrol surrounding the store's parking lot Tuesday morning. The people who were taken into custody were transported to an undisclosed location. A man named Carlos spoke in Spanish as he described witnessing the raid. 'I arrived here and when I started seeing the scene, I started crying,' his translator told KTLA. 'We're here, we're human beings, we're only here to support ourselves and to maintain our families.' 'It is not a crime to look for work,' said Jessica Bansal, an attorney with the National Day Laborer Organizing Network. 'It is not a crime to be a day laborer. So we are asking, 'What information did Border Patrol have when it made these arrests?'' On the same morning at a nearby barber shop on Holt Avenue in Pomona, Miguel Majin said his father was also taken into custody without warning. Surveillance video showed Majin's father arriving at the barber shop he has owned for about 20 years. He steps out of his car to open a gate and moments later, a van and SUV surround him as several agents quickly approach him with guns drawn. 'They get him at gunpoint and he surrenders,' Majin tells KTLA's Shelby Nelson. 'I think it's unnecessary to use guns. My dad's not a criminal. He has properties. He pays taxes.' Majin said he has no idea where his father has been taken. He does confirm that his father had been previously been deported in the early 2000s. 'I get that they're deporting criminals, but my dad is not a criminal and I believe it's not fair what's happening in Pomona,' Majin said. Los Angeles County Supervisor Hilda Solis issued a statement on the incident, saying: 'This morning, my office was alerted by community members of a federal Homeland Security presence in the City of Pomona, where approximately 15-20 day laborers were reportedly detained. In response, I immediately directed the Los Angeles County Office of Immigrant Affairs to connect with the Pomona Day Labor Center to ensure those impacted receive the support and resources they need. Just last week, the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors approved an additional $5.5 million in funding for RepresentLA — a program dedicated to providing our immigrant community with access to legal representation. While this remains a developing situation, I want to reaffirm my unwavering commitment to ensuring that all residents, regardless of their immigration status, are aware of and can exercise their constitutional rights.' It remains unclear which agencies were involved in both operations. A spokesperson told KTLA that neither the U.S. Department of Homeland Security nor U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) was involved in the Home Depot raid. KTLA has reached out to U.S. Customs and Border Protection officials about the incidents and is awaiting a response. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
