However, a new leak about the iPhone 18 launch has now surfaced online. According to a report by Bloomberg\u2019s Mark Gurman Apple is experimenting with a deep red colour option for the upcoming iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max. This move of the company is followed by Cosmic Orange variant on the iPhone 17 Pro. For those unaware, the Cosmic Orange colour of iPhone 17 Pro Max gained a lot of popularity in China, where the customers linked it to Herm\u00e8s\u2019 signature orange. Gurman notes that red is currently the flagship colour in testing, though Apple may keep orange in the lineup as well.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"3\"\/>\u201cApple is now considering a deep red color for its next lineup. Given the success of orange, I wouldn\u2019t be surprised if the company keeps that option around and just adds the red as an additional choice. But red and orange might be a little too close on the color wheel to have both,\u201d reads the Bloomberg report.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"8\"\/><\/p>\n<p><h2>Too close on the colour wheel<br \/><\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>While orange helped drive sales, Apple faces a design decision: whether to keep both orange and red, which sit close together on the colour spectrum. Gurman suggests that rumoured purple and brown options may simply be variations of the red shade under consideration. <span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"12\"\/>Gurman has also said that Apple\u2019s long-rumoured foldable iPhone, Gurman reports that the company plans to avoid bold colours altogether. Instead, the foldable is expected to launch in more utilitarian tones reminiscent of early iPhone models \u2014 likely dark gray\/black and light silver\/white.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"14\"\/><\/p>\n<p><h2>Apple iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max expected launch<br \/><\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>Apple generally announces new iPhone models at its Fall event in September. This is rumoured to change in 2026. According to reports, iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max in the typical September timeframe. However, the standard iPhone 18 may be skipped at the September event this year. As per reports, it may be unveiled next year in March along with iPhone Air 2.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"19\"\/> <\/p>\n<p><h2>New A20 Pro&#8230;<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/technology\/tech-news\/apple-iphone-18-pro-may-see-the-return-of-this-iconic-colour\/articleshow\/128707054.cms\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Apple iPhone 18 Pro may see the return of this iconic colour https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/technology\/tech-news\/apple-iphone-18-pro-may-see-the-return-of-this-iconic-colour\/articleshow\/128707054.cms Publish Date:&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":216514,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/static.toiimg.com\/thumb\/msid-128707023,width-1280,height-720,imgsize-39462,resizemode-6,overlay-toi_sw,pt-32,y_pad-600\/photo.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[120],"tags":[80,81],"class_list":["post-216513","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-iphone","tag-iphone-17","tag-iphone-18"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/216513"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=216513"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/216513\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":216515,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/216513\/revisions\/216515"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/216514"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=216513"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=216513"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=216513"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
