FULL STORY ======================================================================A video of an iPhone 17 Pro dummy unit in orange has leaked This shade is far more eye-catching than most Pro iPhone colors Viewers are very mixed on whether it's a good color or not Leaks suggest that along with understated black, white, and dark blue shades the iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max might be sold in orange, and now a video has given us our best look yet at a dummy unit in that color. Shared by leaker Majin Bu , you can see that this is quite a striking shade, and far more colorful than Apples Pro models tend to be. Whether its a good color is more debatable Bu says it looks so good, but many of the replies to their post are a lot more negative. @AnxiousHolly, for example, said this looks hideous, while @black0nder said the worst color in iPhone history. But @YSL_Laurentttt said Let that be official and Im getting the 17 Pro, and @vernons said if it really looks like that, it could be the winner in this year's upgrade. So, this really does seem to be a love-it-or-hate-it shade. iPhone 17 Pro orange looks so good pic.twitter.com/N9ehzP6ldn August 7, 2025 A good move Whatever you think of this specific color choice, though, wed say its a positive sign that Apple might offer such a shade, as it could mean the company is getting more comfortable with the idea that its Pro phones dont always have to be sold in smart, understated shades. Weve long been calling for more colorful premium phones , so perhaps Apple is finally listening. But whether well see more might depend on how well this orange shade sells. And thats assuming Apple really does launch an iPhone 17 Pro in this color. For now, wed take this rumor with a pinch of salt, but we should find out soon, as the iPhone 17 series is likely to land in early September, with one leak pointing to September 9 .
