iPhone 17 Air’s New Blue Finish Could Be Apple’s Most Unique Color Yet

Apple is expected to launch the iPhone 17 Air later this year, and one of the standout features may be its unique blue color option. According to a rumor from a Weibo leaker, blue will be the main color for the device, placed at the forefront of Apple’s marketing campaign. This rumored blue finish is said to be different from any color Apple has previously used. It is described as a very light shade, so much so that it could appear white in low-light conditions. The new blue hue is said to resemble Apple’s earlier ‘Sierra Blue’ from the iPhone 13 Pro, but with a more subtle and almost pastel-like quality. While the leaker has been correct on some Apple rumors in the past, their track record is mixed. If true, this could mark another step in Apple’s exploration of lighter, pastel shades for its devices, following the trend seen in the iPhone 15 series. The iPhone 17 Air is expected to launch alongside other new iPhone models later this year.
