iPhone 18 Pro may have only one big design change

Various rumors have claimed that the iPhone 18 Pro is likely to feature minimal design changes, probably limited to a smaller Dynamic Island. A new leak suggests that things could be even less exciting and Apple may have only one change in mind.

iPhone 18 Pro will try to win you with new colors

Apple is unlikely to change anything in the design of the iPhone 18 Pro according to information shared (source in Chinese) by Weibo leaker Fixed Focus Digital. The biggest design change to the new devices could be the “new color options.”

The leaker claims that Apple won’t incorporate what they call “novel Android-style features,” such as curved designs and under-display technology. Instead, the company will stick to the same design, with the borders and bezels remaining largely unchanged.

Follow up to the Cosmic Orange mania

While there’s no sign of what those new color options could be, it is almost certain that Apple would like to repeat the success of the Cosmic Orange iPhone 17 Pro. Initially mocked, the bold color turned out to drive the success of the new phones in China.

Another leak today claimed that, just like last year, Apple won’t launch a black iPhone 18 Pro. Earlier rumors suggested that the company was testing newer and more fun colors for the upcoming phone, with a deep red version being one of the likely shades.

It’s not just Apple

The first leaked renders of the Pixel 11 and Pixel 11 Pro showed that Google may also run with practically unchanged design this year. Both devices are nearly identical to their predecessors, except for a small detail on the camera bar.
