You might have decided to go for the base 6.1-inch iPhone 12 model, or you might want the compact 5.4-inch iPhone 12 mini.

If you're here, chances are that you're wondering which color to go for - wonder no more, you've landed on the article that will help you choose!
The smartphone’s color is a possibility for you to express yourself… or it can simply bring you joy or excitement. Anyway, it is as important as its overall design, isn't it?
Now, let's jump into the details!
iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 mini official colors:
- Purple
- White
- Black
- Blue
- Green
- Product RED
iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 mini in Purple
Apple announced at its 2021 Spring Loaded event a new color for the iPhone 12 and the iPhone 12 mini: purple. This candy-like color is aiming to bring a spring vibe and looks fresh and vibrant. The aluminum edges of the phones are matching the sophisticated purple of the back.
If you're a fan of purple and lavender, or you just want a touch of spring to your device, you may like this color. It won't attract fingerprints as much as darker colors.
iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 mini in White
The iPhone 12 and 12 Mini in white look youthful and bright, and this color will look good with anything. Additionally, it won’t attract fingerprint smudges. Combined with the silver Apple logo on the back of the phone, the white color looks premium and stylish. If you want something simple, yet with a feel of elegance, you may like this color option. On the front, the bezels are still black, so you will mostly not see the white color if you’re looking at the iPhone 12 or iPhone 12 mini from the front.
Important to note here is that, as you can probably see on the photo above, the color is not cold white. It does overall look like white, but when you compare it with the white on the Apple AirPods case for example, you will see a slightly warmer, somehow pinkish or goldish tint on the iPhone 12 and 12 mini white. It's barely noticeable, but it makes the white more warm and therefore a great option for someone who would go for a gold or a more jewelry-like color.

iPhone 12 and 12 mini in Blue
The Navy-like Blue color on the iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 Mini is a nice addition to the iPhone 12 color options. It looks solid and interesting, while at the same time manages to look vibrant and somehow daring. This is a great balance color for those of you, who would want a color they won’t get sick of too quickly, but that is not black or white.
The blue looks good with almost anything and is definitely a trendy-looking iPhone 12 color option. It's bright and artistic, in a way, as well, so this option is great for people who love their smartphones to look interesting and fresh. Keep in mind that this color is not very dark blue, and its slightly more saturated in reality than what appears on Apple's website.
