The rumor mill is abuzz with whispers of a new color for the upcoming iPhone 16 Pro, and the leaked images of dummy units have left us, well, a bit underwhelmed. While the classic white, black, and gray options are safe bets, the so-called “bronze” shade is raising eyebrows and causing a collective shudder among Apple enthusiasts.
Now, we understand that these are just rumors and leaks, and the final product might look entirely different. But if these images are anything to go by, this “bronze” color is more reminiscent of a muddy puddle than a shimmering precious metal. It’s a far cry from the sleek and sophisticated hues we’ve come to expect from Apple’s Pro lineup.
We appreciate Apple’s penchant for introducing a fresh color each year, keeping things exciting for their loyal customers. Midnight Green, Pacific Blue, Sierra Blue, Deep Purple – these were all bold and beautiful additions to the iPhone palette.But this “bronze” situation? It’s a bit of a head-scratcher.
Perhaps it’s the combination of the color with the glass back that’s throwing us off. Maybe it would look more appealing on a leather-bound device, but on a sleek glass iPhone? It feels a bit like a fashion misstep.
As devoted Apple fans who eagerly anticipate each new iPhone release, we sincerely hope these rumors are unfounded.The idea of a flagship color that evokes images of dirt or, dare we say it, certain bodily functions, is not exactly appealing.
Apple, we know you have a knack for creating stunning designs and captivating colors. So please, if this “bronze” iPhone 16 Pro is indeed in the works, reconsider. We’re crossing our fingers that the final product will surprise us with a more refined and elegant shade, one that truly complements the iPhone’s premium aesthetic.
The countdown beings.
