Here's your first look at the iPhone 18 colors, including the all-new Dark Cherry

Dark Cherry will become the next standout iPhone color, replacing last year's Cosmic Orange.

A leaker on X has shared the first images of iPhone 18 Pro dummy units in four different colors. The images suggest that this year’s Pro iPhones could debut in a new Dark Cherry finish, while Apple also appears set to bring back a black color option to the iPhone Pro lineup.

Our first look at the iPhone 18 Pro dummy units comes from a recent post on X by renowned tipster Sonny Dickson. According to the leaker, the iPhone 18 Pro models will launch in Black, Silver, Dark Cherry, and Light Blue. However, it remains unclear whether Apple plans to introduce additional colors later on.

Previous reports suggested that Apple would replace the iPhone 17’s Cosmic Orange finish with the new Dark Cherry color in the iPhone 18 series, and now we have our first glimpse at how the shade may look on the next-generation iPhones. Dark Cherry features a more muted tone compared to last year’s Cosmic Orange. While it is not as vibrant, it still stands out as an interesting addition to the iPhone lineup.

Also, if you are a fan of all-black iPhones, this year’s iPhone 18 series might have a surprise for you, as Apple is reportedly planning to bring back the popular color option. Images shared by Sonny Dickson appear to show an all-black iPhone 18 Pro featuring a glossy Apple logo on the rear panel. In terms of overall design, however, there do not appear to be any major changes.

The iPhone 18 series is not expected to be a significant departure from its predecessor, with the new models likely retaining the familiar design while introducing the A20 chip, improved cameras, and additional AI-powered features. Some reports also suggest that the iPhone 18 lineup could feature 12GB of RAM instead of 8GB to better support AI capabilities integrated into the upgraded Siri.

The iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max are expected to debut in September alongside Apple’s first foldable iPhone, while the company reportedly plans to delay the launch of the standard iPhone 18 until later in the year.
