iPhone 17 Pro Only Comes in Three Colors, With No Black Option

The iPhone 17 Pro and ‌iPhone 17 Pro‌ Max are available in just three color options, notably with no black option.

iPhone 17 Pro Colors
The new high-end models are available in Silver, Cosmic Orange, and Deep Blue. Orange is a new addition to the Pro lineup, while blue returns from the iPhone 15 Pro.

Natural, Desert, and Black have not been carried over, making this year's selection of color options the smallest since the iPhone XS, which was just available in Silver, Space Gray, and Gold. This also marks the first time Apple's high-end iPhones have not been available with a black or dark gray color option in any way.

Pre-orders start Friday, September 12, ahead of deliveries to customers and in-store availability beginning Friday, September 19.

I can't believe the color we all want is black, and not available. Ridiculous.

No Black or Dark Gray is stupid. Orange iPhone? Probably for 5 minutes then it is too much.

The orange color looks cool, but for how long? It’s pretty bold.

Every iPhone I've owned since the 3G has been black. I'm considering getting the orange - with a black case.
