The iPhone 16 Pro lineup will be replacing the blue titanium option with a new color.
A new photo from frequent leaker Maijin Bu on X.com shows color samples purported to be from the forthcoming iPhone 16 Pro lineup. The report suggests that earlier photos of a brownish “desert titanium” option may be misleading.
In his report, Bu lists the colours as “white, black, gold, and gray.” He notes that the gold color is a very dark gold, “relatively discreet and deep.” The iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max are expected to continue using titanium as the body material, as the iPhone 15 Pro lineup did.
An earlier photo from fellow leaker Sonny Dickson showed alleged iPhone 16 Pro models with white, black, gray and a much more bronze or brownish shade that has since been referred to as “desert titanium.” It’s likely that this shade will replace the current blue titanium color seen on the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max.
If accurate, the iPhone 16 Pro lineup will retain the white, black, and natural titanium color options. Commenters on Bu’s post indicated that a bronzish-gold option might end up looking better than the browner tone seen in Dickson’s photo of the possible finishes.
