iPhone XR Successor Could Replace Coral and Blue Options With Green and Lavender

Friday May 10, 2019 8:30 pm PDT by Eric Slivka
Apple's colorful iPhone XR lineup comes in a total of six colors, offering plenty of options for users to choose one that best suits their preferences. This year's successor to the iPhone XR will similarly be available in six colors, but Mac Otakara says Apple will be tweaking a couple of the options.

Mac Otakara's examples of expected 2019 iPhone XR colors

According to the report, the 2019 iPhone XR will be available in new Green and Lavender colors, which will replace the current Coral and Blue colors. The other current colors of White, Black, Yellow, and (PRODUCT)RED will continue to be offered on the next-generation models.

Mac Otakara also claims to have some information on cases for the next-generation iPhone XS and XS Max models, indicating that silicone cases for the new models will likely come in White, Black, (PRODUCT)RED, and shades similar to the current Spearmint and Mellow Yellow cases, as well as one that's close to the current Lilac leather case.

I doubt they’d get rid of blue. It seems to be one of the more popular colors.

Will the new colors make the XR lighter and easier to hold?

I just don't get all the color schemes. If you value your iDevice, the first thing you do after unwrapping it is put a shatter-proof case on it, thereby hiding all that glorious "color" (and hopefully the Apple logo on the back, too). Unless, of course,you get your jollies with scratches and cracked screens.

i just think the PRODUCT (RED) color is amazing, probably the last color i will ever buy if they keep offering it.

I think the Blue is the best color of the bunch; it would be a mistake to get rid of it. They should be adding more colors instead. I like the idea of completing the lineup with the Green and Lavender. Hopefully its light green and purple, not too deep.

I've used iPhones for over 10 years, I only ever had trouble with the iPhone 6 (whose screen I had replace once due to it getting shattered in an accidental drop). No other repairs ever needed, and I never used a case. Buying five cases might have easily cost me more than it cost me to replace the screen once.

So, no, you don't have buy a case if you value your iOS device. You just have to treat it right.

Gimme some 5th Gen iPod Nano color vibrancy. Excluding the red, the current colors are too muted imo.

Naahh.. I want these colors making a comeback for the new XR!!

Considering the back is coated glass, I assume Apple could play with more bold colors
