The special new color that Apple is considering for the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max this year is red, according to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman.
Specifically, he said that Apple is testing a "deep red" finish for the two devices.
If this rumor materializes, it would be the first time that the Pro and Pro Max models ever come in red, and the iPhone 18 Pro models would be the first iPhone models to be available in red since the iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Plus in (PRODUCT)RED. However, it sounds like it would be more of a burgundy finish than a bright red.
While it was previously rumored that Apple was also considering purple and brown finishes for the iPhone 18 Pro models, Gurman said he believes that those color options are "just variants of the same red idea — given that the tones are fairly similar." In other words, it sounds like those two color options will not actually be offered.
As for the foldable iPhone, Gurman said Apple plans to "stay away from fun colors" and stick to more traditional space gray/black and silver/white finishes.
Apple is expected to unveil the iPhone 18 Pro and foldable iPhone models in September.

The next major Mac Studio update is still a couple of years away, but a refresh for 2026 is still in the cards, according to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman.
Writing in the latest edition of his Power On newsletter, Gurman said Apple has two Mac Studio refreshes in the pipeline: an M5 Ultra version due this year, and a more significant M7 Ultra model expected in 2028.
Apple appears set to skip...
According to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, Apple will be releasing a regular M6 chip, but it has no plans to offer higher-end M6 Pro and M6 Max chips. In his Power On newsletter today, he said the reason for this break in tradition is AI.
"Apple had been planning major neural-processing upgrades for the M7 family and ultimately decided those improvements were important enough to justify...
I would genuinely like to hear a single use case or relative advantage of a foldable phone over the existing form factor.
It's literally the ability to turn it into a bigger screen while also not taking up that much more space in your pocket. That said, I'm not interested myself. The tradeoff's of having a screen that is plastic again so it can bend, and the additional failure points of a hinge are just a hard pass for me. I don't think the tradeoffs are worth it. I'd rather just grab my iPad or laptop if I want a bigger screen.
