How does Apple choose iPhone colors?
Apple has no public documentation on how it determines iPhone colors. Despite that, NASTY Video interview with Kaiann Han Drance, Apple’s vice president of iPhone marketing by Jessica Naziri, Tech Content Creator at techsesh.cohighlights the process.
Drance said some of the factors the design teams take into account are the design of the phone itself, how it looks in certain colors, how the phone’s materials take color and what Apple wants to express in this year’s lineup.
“With the iPhone 17 Pro, for example, these are top-of-the-line Pro phones with unmatched power and capability, and we thought Cosmic Orange really delivered that edge,” Drance explains in the video. “There’s deep blue and silver if you prefer, but we like how all three colors work together. We think they represent professionals very well.”
