Apple’s 6.1-inch iPhone 9 with an LCD display could come in vibrant colours like blue, yellow and pink, claims a new report. Apple had vibrant colours in the past with the iPhone 5c, which launched in blue, yellow, green, pink and a white option. It looks like with the 2018 series, Apple could expand its colour range, especially on the budget iPhone, which some are referring to as iPhone 9.
According to a report on Japan’s Macotakara blog, which is quoting Rosenblatt Securities analyst Jun Zhang as saying that the 2018 iPhone 6.1-inch LCD model will come in multiple colours such as blue, yellow and pink.
It remains to be seen if Apple will indeed for such a bright colour scheme, considering it has stuck with more subtle options since iPhone 6 series. We have seen the Red iPhone 7, iPhone 8 series, but other bright colours have largely remained out of the Apple universe. A blue, red, and orange iPhone, even if it is only the budget iPhone 9 will be interesting to see.
According to Kuo’s report from June, the larger 6.5-inch OLED iPhone will be made available in black, white, and a new gold colour variant. Earlier a gold colour option for the iPhone X was leaked in a document by Federal Communications Commission (FCC), but we will have to wait and see if Apple does introduce such a colour scheme.
Apple is expected to launch three iPhone variants in 2018, which will come in three different sizes. The cheapest option on the list will be the 6.1-inch iPhone with an LCD display. The 5.8-inch iPhone X and 6.5-inch iPhone X Plus will both sport OLED displays, which will make them more expensive. However, all three iPhone variants will come with the Face ID feature on the front.
Apple iPhone X Plus could cost close to $999, while the 5.8-inch iPhone X will cost around $800 to $900, according to Kuo’s predictions. A Bloomberg report has also hinted that there could be dual-SIM variants of the iPhone series in some regions. The budget LCD variant and the high-end iPhone X Plus could sport the feature. So far Apple has never offered a dual-SIM option on its phones.
