Apple disappointed some users when it launched the iPhone 17 Pro without a black color option. The flagship iPhone is only available in blue, orange, or silver.

A well-sourced leaker says those hoping for a change with the iPhone 18 Pro will be disappointed...

Apple achieved great success with a bold color choice for the iPhone 17 Pro series. Cosmic Orange seems to be the most popular color, and some suggest that this was key to Apple having its best financial quarter after the launch. The orange effect was particularly strong in China.

Analysts noted that the design refresh for the iPhone 17 series helped reinforce Apple's status symbol position in China by making the latest smartphones easier to recognize as new and high-quality.

The deep blue color was also well received, but the lack of a black option disappointed some. Many hoped this was a temporary mistake by Apple, but the leaker source Instant Digital says that is not the case.

It seems that the black color for the iPhone 18 Pro has been cut again. Disturbing.

There is still no information about the colors Apple has chosen for this year's iPhone series.
