A new rumor has appeared about the color of the upcoming iPhone 17 Air and unfortunately it doesn’t seem to be very special.
The iPhone 17 Air comes in this color
WeIBO user Fixed Focus Digital Recently shared a rumor about this. That message states that the most important color for the upcoming iPhone 17 Air is probably very light blue. It also says that the color is so weak that it just seems white in certain light. That is reminiscent of the ‘barely blue colors’ that we have seen before at Apple.
“Blue is probable the main color of iPhone 17 Air this time. It is different from all the blue colorors released by Apple in the past. The Blue is very light. If there is low light, it is easy to confuse with white.”
“Blue is probably the most important color of the iPhone 17 Air this time. It is different from all the blue colors that Apple has released in the past. The blue is very light. With little light it is easy to confuse with white.”
Different types of blue
Just like with gray, Apple has used many different shades of blue over the years. Some more subtle than others. The Sierra Blue for the iPhone 13 Pro was described by many people as ‘very light blue’. It was a unique metallic, almost icy color that sometimes seemed blue and sometimes light gray.
Apple continued to experiment with even lighter pastel colors of glass and aluminum for the iPhone 15 models. And then there was the sky blue of the M4 MacBook Air, which was generally described as ‘hardly any blue’.
It is unclear on the basis of which Fixed Focus Digital appoints this color blue as the most important color of the iPhone 17 Air. It can also be a reference to the fact that it is a new color. That is something that Apple often emphasizes in marketing material.
With a grain of salt …
Fixed Focus Digital has a mixed track record when it comes to Apple rumors. He has achieved a number of great successes, such as the message that the iPhone SE of the fourth generation would actually be the ‘iPhone 16th’. And the color option applied titanium of the iPhone 16 Pro. Other claims, on the other hand, were incorrect. It is therefore not a bad idea to take this rumor with a pinch of salt.
The iPhone 17 Air is expected to be presented together with the rest of the new iPhone line-up in the coming fall. If you don’t want to miss anything, sign up for our newsletter and download our app!
