Apple’s New iPhone 15 Colors Make a Clear Case a Must-Have – CNET

The new iPhone 15 is here, and it comes in a fresh palette of colors. Announced Tuesday at Apple’s annual September event, the new iPhones will come in a rainbow of new colors. No matter which model you’re eyeing, Apple has made sure that you won’t want to hide your choice behind a case.

The new iPhone 15 will be available in pink, yellow, green, blue and black.

The new iPhone 15 Pro will also be available in four textured titanium options: black, white, blue and natural. The Pro Max is getting the four-color titanium treatment as well. Both will be available for preorder on Friday, Sept. 15, and will hit stores on Sept. 22. You can peruse the best iPhone preorder deals here.

Apple said the new iPhone 15 is the first smartphone ever to have its colors “embedded throughout a single piece of durable color-infused glass.” The company’s use of metallic ions allows it to control the saturation of the color in the glass back, creating this new roster of colors, Apple said. The iPhone 15 models have a matte finish, with the titanium 15 Pro and Pro Max models coming with a textured matte finish.

These models are a stark contrast from the light, springtime feel of the iPhone 15s. The Pro and Pro Max colors are dark, with metallic flecks that are subtle but still eye-catching. The iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max are the Oppenheimer to the iPhone 15’s Barbie.

The Pro model colors are more in line with what Apple has historically created for its phone. When the iPhone 14 launched last September, it was available in blue, purple, midnight, starlight and Product Red. Apple then surprised users in March the next year by announcing that the 14 and 14 Plus would also be available in a new color, a pastel yellow. Apple could have similar plans for the new iPhone 15 — perhaps another springtime new addition? We’ll have to wait and see.
