iPhone 17 Air Colour Options Hinted in New Leak; Could Launch in Four Shades

iPhone 17 series is likely to launch in September, if Apple sticks to its usual schedule. The lineup, which is expected to include four models — iPhone 17, iPhone 17 Air, iPhone 17 Pro, and iPhone 17 Pro Max — has seen several rumours recently. There’s a new one now, which suggests the colour options for the iPhone 17 Air. The new model, that is expected to be the thinnest iPhone ever, is said to be available in four colourways. It is expected to feature a 6.6-inch OLED display and a 48-megapixel rear camera.

Tipster Majin Bu (@MajinBuOfficial) claimed that the iPhone 17 Air will be launched in black, silver, light gold, and light blue colours. The light blue is said to be similar to the Sky Blue shade of the MacBook Air (M4). For comparison, the iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus were launched last year in Black, Pink, White, Teal and Ultramarine colour options.

The tipster also shared mock-ups of the alleged iPhone 17 Air in the rumoured colour options. The black and silver colour variants look similar to the Black and White colour found on the current generation iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus. An early rumour also suggested green and purple colourways for the iPhone 17 and iPhone 17 Air.
