- Apple’s launch occasion on Monday will unveil the brand new gold iPhone 16 Pro fashions.
- Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman predicts the gold titanium will drive important curiosity.
As particulars about Apple’s latest merchandise emerge, I sit up for seeing an previous favourite return at Monday’s “Glowtime” launch occasion.
Bloomberg correspondent and Apple knowledgeable Mark Gurman previewed a number of the gadgets, and his ideas on the brand new gold iPhone 16 Pro made me desperate to see it unveiled on Monday.
“I believe the brand new iPhone 16 Pro gold goes to be the stand out colour this 12 months and doubtlessly drive curiosity,” Gurman stated on X.
He added, “I’ve by no means had a gold iPhone earlier than however contemplating.”
As somebody who has had a gold iPhone, I instantly felt nostalgic.
In 2016, 16-year-old me owned a gold iPhone 6. Although the cellphone’s battery ultimately gave out earlier than I used to be able to let it go, its resplendent body, with an accented dwelling button (keep in mind these?) to match, remains to be a favourite of mine.
The iPhone 6 is not the primary or final mannequin to come back with a gold end. The iPhone 14 Pro Max has a gold possibility, however Apple took a extra understated method to the pure titanium shade of the iPhone 15 Pro.
For me, the gold iPhone 6 stood out as vital colour. Maybe it simply jogs my memory of a time of wired headphones and Snapchat filters, however its successors have fallen brief to date.
And other than the revamped colour choices, the iPhone 16 would be the first iPhone launched within the period of Apple Intelligence, and the Pro fashions could have a digital camera button on the correct aspect to take images, in accordance with Bloomberg.
If Gurman is impressed sufficient to ditch his present end for a gold iPhone 16 Pro, then I’m excited to see if it might probably inspire me to improve from my purple iPhone 14 Pro Max.
After all, Wedbush Securities analyst Dan Ives has been calling it a “golden improve cycle.”
