- Light Gold (Pantone 11-0604 TPG Gardenia)
Meanwhile, Apple is going with lighter hues for the iPhone 17 Air to represent its lightness. The light blue color is meant to resemble the Sky Blue variant of the new M4 MacBook Air. The Light Gold option should be a brighter iteration of the Desert Titanium color seen in the iPhone 16 Pro.

Apple is going for a “fluorescent” look with the Orange color in the Pro models, as per Macworld’s sources. The reason for this stems from a shift in materials, switching from Titanium to Aluminium. It will also come in a Dark Blue color, similar to the one seen on the iPhone 15 Pro.
The folks at AppleInsider made some stunning renders based on these details, giving us a good look of what all the color variants might look like.
The iPhone 17 Pro models are also set to come with scratch-resistant anti-reflective display technology, according to a reliable leak from Macrumors. So, which color option are you going to pick? Let us know in the comments below.
