Frustrating that the front of mine continues to look like everyone else's phone, including those Android folks... eventually goes jet black.

iPhone 16 Pro Could Come in New 'Space Black' and 'Rose' Colors

I really hope they bring back the Rose Gold color used on the iPhone 6S model.![]()
Apple's upcoming iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max models will come in new "space black" and "rose" titanium colors, claims a new rumor out of China.

According to a Weibo post shared by leaker ShrimpApplePro on X (Twitter), the Blue Titanium color that iPhone 15 Pro models are currently available in will be dropped from the iPhone 16 Pro lineup in favor of the new rose color. Meanwhile, "space black," which is said to be similar to the iPhone 14 Pro color of the same name, will replace Black Titanium.
The rumor also claims that the Natural and White Titanium colors will be slightly different on the iPhone 16 Pro models. Natural Titanium is said to be returning, but with more of a gray tint to it. Meanwhile, White Titanium will appear more like a "silver white" color, which is also said to be similar to the silver version of the iPhone 14 Pro.
The Weibo user that is the source of the rumor has not previously been tracked by MacRumors. However, ShrimpApplePro claims that the account accurately predicted ahead of launch the Purple color that debuted with the iPhone 14 Pro.
Apple switched its "Pro" models from stainless steel to titanium with last year's iPhone 15 Pro series. The iPhone 15 Pro comes in Black Titanium, White Titanium, Blue Titanium, and Natural Titanium, but Apple surprised by not offering a gold option. Gold was available through the iPhone 5S to the iPhone 8, and then on the iPhone XS to the iPhone 14 Pro. Therefore the rumored new "rose" color could well be the titanium version of a gold-like shade.

Examples of rumored new iPhone 16 Pro color lineup
This is the second rumor we have heard about the iPhone 16 Pro's color options. Last month, the leaker known as "Majin Bu" claimed that the Pro models would be available in "Desert Titanium" and "Titanium Gray" color options, and those names suggest there could be some overlap with today's rumored rose color and the tweaked Natural Titanium.

Rose gold will forever be the best colour apple has introduced. Meaning the prime, elegant 2015 pink vibes not the nauseatingly gross left-too-long-in-the-washing-machine pink colour of this years base models…
I want a green Pro again. That was such a nice mid release color. A lighter mint green would be wonderful.
But rose is also good. Anything that isn’t these dull shades of gray is preferred.

So so so so so BORING.
Space grey, graphite and recent space black are all so poo, just stink of old insurance broker.
Where's the jet black, greens, reds, bronzes? pro models should not be dull as sewer water ffs.
stop letting rich old white guys who wear beige chinos with nikes decide these things.

I'll probably just get the White one this time around.
The colors are often dull, aside from the year they had the Sierra Blue on the iPhone 13 Pro. That color was vibrant and really popped.
The Graphite color was nice too, but they killed that for Space Black on the iPhone 14 Pro series, and the new Natural Titanium color, while nice, isn't as striking as Graphite was.
Such a shame we've never had a Product Red iPhone Pro model.

You will be surprised to hear that there are committees that have meetings to go over what names to call the color which lasts for hours and more than once! 🤣
Back to topic.
Those "colors" are sad.
Give us VIBRANT COLORS!
Every time I'm looking to upgrade, they drop Blue... what does Apple have against Blue. Why can't Blue be a standard color with every model? It's never unpopular, but they keep bringing back the lighter colors. I'm forever buying Blue cases to hide the ugly "non-colors" of the new models.
Sometimes I hate you Apple.

I want Vantablack but I will settle for Jet Black.
Whilst I use a case I still think the pro series of iPhones is the most boring colour choices imaginable.
Bring back the bold choices of Nokia days. And get rid of glass backs on phones too.
I would gladly buy a premium plastic pro version of the iPhone - more durable than glass and lighter.

Red is not possible, the closest they could come is Magenta, and while some Riff Raff might like it, I suspect there would a lot of "It's not red" complaints.
