2018 iPhone model could launch in three new colors, here's what they may look like!

Earlier this month, Rosenblatt analyst Jun Zhang claimed that Apple would differentiate the cheaper model by releasing it in a number of fresh color options, akin to the iPhone 5c:

According to Zhang, the three color variants of the 2018 LCD iPhone model will come in blue, yellow, and pink. These are interesting choices, considering that Apple has thus far stuck with white, black, gray, gold, and rose gold for most of its smartphones and tablets, not counting the unapologetically plastic iPhone 5c, and the odd Product RED Edition over the years.

That said, Apple is no stranger to slapping more garish, lively colors on its products. Back when people actually cared about personal music players, Apple released iPod Nano and later Touch models in a an entire rainbow of color options, including the aforementioned blue, yellow, and pink. Of course, looking back at these devices now, with their not-so-premium aluminum builds and eye-gouging paint jobs, it's not too difficult to surmise that, if Apple is indeed going to release new iPhone color options this year, they won't be nearly as gaudy as what we've seen on iPods of years past. The times, they are a-changin'... and how.

If true, it's interesting to see Apple again opting to colorize its affordable lineup of iPhones. Seems like the more restrained, 'classy' colors are reserved only for the higher-end models. But either way, even the LCD iPhone model is rumored to feature a premium build with glass back for wireless charging, so it's likely going to look quite different from the plasticky 5c.

With all that said, we thought it'd be cool if we let our imaginations run free for a while, picture what the blue, yellow, and pink 2018 iPhone models would look like.
