A leaked video showcases the colors of the iPhone 18 Pro ahead of its official announcement.

News 2 months since publication

With Apple's highly anticipated "Surprise and Shine" event fast approaching, leaks have reached fever pitch, revealing what Apple had planned to keep under wraps until the last minute. While everyone awaits the official unveiling of the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max, a leaked video has surfaced on the Korean platform Naver, showcasing what appear to be prototype display units for the new devices. This provides the clearest visual evidence yet of the unconventional color options coming this year.

iPhone 18 Pro color leaks

New color shades: dark cherry and light blue

The short clip showcases two flagship devices: the iPhone 18 Pro Max and the iPhone 18 Pro, each featuring a color twist not seen in recent Apple lineups. The former comes in a deep red hue known as "Dark Cherry," while the latter shines in an elegant light blue, giving the Pro models a vibrant look that departs from the usual gray and black shades.

From PhoneIslam: Two hands holding two purple and blue iPhone 18 Pro devices, with camera modules unbalanced with the phone's body, are displayed on a shop counter next to instruction cards and a keyboard.

To accurately demonstrate the color contrast, the video creator placed a dark blue iPhone 17 Pro Max next to a dark cherry-colored iPhone 18 Pro Max for direct comparison. This clear difference between the two devices enhanced the authenticity of the models shown, confirming that they were not current or previous models.

Evidence from storefronts: Is the leak real?

The video's publisher provided no extensive details beyond a brief title indicating the unveiling of prototypes of the iPhone 18 Pro in blue and the iPhone 18 Pro Max in dark cherry. However, the video's background reveals important details: a product label resembling a storefront design, along with transparent plastic stands and security cables identical to those used in official display cases.

From PhoneIslam: The image shows two Apple iPhones from the back, one in blue and the other in purple. Each has three rear cameras and the Apple logo, highlighting the elegant design of the iPhone 18 Pro.

It makes perfect sense for retailers and outlets to begin receiving prototype units a few days before the announcement to prepare their displays for commercial launch, even though leaks of such images pose a significant risk to them. While the possibility of forgeries remains, the increasing number of reports and the consistency of details strongly suggest the authenticity of these new colors, which we await confirmation of during the official conference.

What do you think of my choice of blue and dark cherry for the iPhone 18 Pro? Do you prefer calm colors or bold shades?

Devices in the UAE since the iPhone 17 only work with an eSIM.

Note that the device appears to be offered in Russia or a country that uses the Russian language, and the price is listed at 10000. However, it is noted that the device offered works with two SIM/eSIM cards, and this feature is usually for Chinese and Hong Kong devices, not for Russia or a country that follows it?

    Excellent intelligence vetting, but you've got it backwards! Devices from China and Hong Kong are unique in having two physical SIM cards and lacking an eSIM, while the (physical SIM + eSIM) combination is the global standard version adopted in Russia and most countries of the world.

The only questionable thing is the devices displayed on a round table. All Apple stores do not use a round table that is entirely white, but rather rely on rectangular white tables with wooden legs. Secondly, all Apple stores do not have office supplies except for the devices on display. Thirdly, there is no Apple store that displays the iPhone in the same place as the laptop, unless the display location is in a place completely different from Apple stores or halls, and in other words, in an office or display location that does not belong to Apple.

    Your keen observation skills are commendable! It is highly likely that it is not inside an official Apple store, but rather with an authorized distributor or a telecommunications company, which are the outlets through which experimental display units usually leak hours before the ban is lifted.

Although the announcement is tomorrow regardless, those colors need to be seen in reality before making a decision on choosing a color.

    You're absolutely right; the lighting at Apple conferences and the images on their official website are always misleading and don't accurately reflect the metal's true reflectivity. Ironically, we spend hours deciding on a color, only to end up with it in an opaque protective case!

    We understand your point of view, Doctor, but at this time of year, even color details can drive a huge market for accessories and influence millions to make early purchasing decisions. We promise you a comprehensive technical analysis and in-depth hardware reviews as soon as the full details are revealed at the conference!
