As we inch closer to Apple’s September event, the iPhone 17 rumor mill is heating up, and this time, it’s all about the colors. A new leak from Sonny Dickson has unveiled dummy models of the iPhone 17 lineup, and one shade in particular is turning heads: a bright orange variant for the Pro model.
Orange iPhone 17 Pro? Yes, Really.
According to the leaked dummy units, the iPhone 17 Pro could come in the following shades:
- Black
- White
- Dark Blue
- Orange
While black and dark blue feel familiar, the orange stands out. It’s bolder than Apple’s usual Pro tones, which tend to be more muted and metallic. Early rumors hinted the orange might actually be a copper-like color, so the final product could still look more refined. Lighting and material in dummy models often skew perception.

What About the Standard iPhone 17 and iPhone 17 Air?
The dummy units also give us a look at the other models:
- iPhone 17 Air: Black, white, gold, and a MacBook Air-style light blue
- iPhone 17: Black, white, blue, and a pinkish-purple
Suggested: iPhone 17 Once Again Rumored to Feature A19 Chip, Not A18
Notably missing from the dummy leaks are rumored shades like steel gray and a color-shifting white, said to appear iridescent in the light. It’s unclear whether these are just absent from the prototype phase or scrapped altogether.
Final Thoughts
Dummy models don’t always perfectly represent the final colors due to lighting and material differences. But historically, they do offer strong hints. If the orange iPhone 17 Pro turns out to be real, it could be one of the boldest color shifts Apple has made in years, and a potential hit with users craving something different.
Apple will be announcing the entire iPhone 17 lineup at the launch event expected somewhere around the 8th of September 2025.
