Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo has made some predictions about the color options for the upcoming iPhone 16 series, and given his accurate track record, his insights are highly regarded. Apple typically reveals its new iPhones in September, and these color options could be what we see this fall.
Kuo shared on social media that the iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max will be available in Black, White (or Silver), Gray (or Natural Titanium), and Rose. Notably, the Rose color will replace the Blue Titanium option currently available for the iPhone 15 Pro Max.

iPhone 16 Pro & Pro Max: Black, White (or Silver), Gray (likely Natural Titanium), Rose
iPhone 16 & 16 Plus: Black, Green, Pink, Blue, White
Apple may use different names for these colors (e.g., previously calling White "Starlight"). Even if the color names are the same as existing models, the shades might differ slightly.
For the standard iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus, Kuo lists Black, Green, Pink, Blue, and White. The notable change here is White, which will replace Yellow from the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus color options.
Potential Name Tweaks and Variations
Kuo also highlights that Apple might slightly adjust the names of existing colors, and even if a color name sounds familiar, the actual shade could be different. For instance, the new White might have subtle differences compared to previous versions.
An X user, @ArnaudDucouret, has created a visual representation of what the iPhone 16 Pro series might look like based on Kuo’s predictions. If these images are accurate, it would mark the first time the Pro line includes a Rose color option.
While these are just predictions, Kuo’s history of accurate forecasts suggests they are likely to be true. Although September is still a few months away, information about the iPhone 16 series is slowly being revealed. We’ll keep you updated on any new developments regarding these devices.
