iPhone 18 Leaks: The iPhone 18 series is already in the air, and while major hardware upgrades may be limited this year, something else is grabbing attention: the new colour options. Apple’s Pro lineup is known for introducing a signature shade every year, and early leaks suggest a shift in approach this time. Instead of bold and flashy tones, the company may go for more refined finishes.

Along with this, small design tweaks and a new foldable iPhone are also expected to be part of the 2026 lineup.

Which Is The New 'Cosmic Orange'?

Apple may be preparing to replace last year’s Cosmic Orange with a new signature shade called Dark Cherry. Unlike the bright and vibrant orange tone, Dark Cherry is expected to have a deeper, wine-like finish that looks more subtle and premium.

iPhone 18 Pro Expected Specs

In terms of hardware, the iPhone 18 Pro models are expected to stick close to the current design with only minor changes. One of the key updates could be a smaller Dynamic Island, which may offer slightly more usable screen space.
