iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus colour options
Both iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus (review) are available in five colour shades. Let’s take a look at all the options one by one.
Blue
- This time around, Apple chose to go with muted shades of colours for its non-Pro iPhones. The Blue colour variant of the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus has a very toned-down blue to the point it may appear white when viewed in a well-lit room.
- The rear panel features frosted glass that keeps fingerprints and smudges at bay while the side frame is made of aluminium which is again, blue in colour.
Pink
- The Pink iPhone 15 is Apple’s second attempt at this colour. The first time the Cupertino giant came up with a pink colourway was on the iPhone 13 which had a glossy rear panel unlike the iPhone 15 which has a smooth and matte texture.
- The pink around the camera module is slightly more boosted compared to the whole back of the phone.
- Just like all iPhone 15 colour variants, the side frame is made of aluminium that is resistant to fingerprints and dirt marks.
Yellow
- Moving on to the Yellow variant of the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus, it has a very subtle colour all around the body be it the side frame, back panel, and camera module.
- Even the rings around the camera lenses appear washed out in colour compared to the other shades in the lineup.
- As for the side frame, one can be mistaken for it being in gold colour but it is actually a strong shade of yellow.
Green
- The Green colour option of the iPhone 15 has a specific minty vibe to it which many may adore, especially those who have a preference for pastel colours.
- The frame of the green variant has boosted greens compared to the rear and the same can be said for the matte finish camera array.
- A dark case could go very well with this iPhone 15 colour shade for a contrasty look.
Black
- One cannot go wrong by choosing the Black variant of the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus as this colour is classy as it gets.
- Unlike other colourways, this particular iPhone 15 colour carries an extremely dark shade throughout the device. In fact, the black variant of the iPhone 15 is even darker than the iPhone 15 Pro’s black.
- One thing to note is that fingerprints and dirt marks may be easily visible on this particular colour variant.
iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max colour options
The iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max (review) come in four colour options which are named after the phones’ build material. Here are the colour variants.
Natural Titanium
- The Natural Titanium colour variant can be considered this year’s signature colour for the iPhone 15 Pro lineup, just like was the case with iPhone 14 Pro’s Deep Purple from last year.
- The ‘Natural Titanium’ in the name signifies the colour of the actual titanium element which is a metal with a smoky charcoal grey hue. That being said, all the colour options of iPhone 15 Pro carry a titanium-made side frame which tends to attract fingerprints but not as much as the stainless steel found on the iPhone 14 Pro series.
- The rear of the iPhone 15 Pro Natital Titanium colour has a matte finish along with a glossy camera module that houses three lenses, an LED flashlight, a microphone, and a LiDAR sensor.
Blue Titanium
- The Blue Titanium colour of the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max has quite a dark tone which can often be interpreted as a black colour depending on the lighting conditions.
- While the rear panel does a good job of keeping fingerprints and smudges at bay, the same can’t be said for the titanium side frame.
- The Blue Titanium iPhone 15 Pro and all other variants in the lineup feature coloured USB-C ports which correspond to the phone’s colour.
White Titanium
- Unlike the name suggests, the White Titanium colour option of the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max has an off-white tone to it which appears as an actual white when viewing in specific angles and lighting.
- Similarly, the side frame is not as silver as iPhone 14 Pro’s white colour option. It isn’t as shiny either thanks to the titanium build which makes it easier to grip and wield the phone.
Black Titanium
- If you want something that can go along with any back cover or attire, then the Black Titanium variant of the iPhone 15 Pro is the one to go for.
- When viewed at different angles, the Black Titanium may give off a very dark grey tone.
- The camera module is more darker than the rest of the device and also has a glossy finish unlike the side and rear panel of the iPhone 15 Pro.
Which iPhone 15 colour is most ideal for you
iPhone 15 or iPhone 15 Plus:
If you’re looking for a strong and dark colour option for the iPhone 15 or iPhone 15 Plus, then you have no choice other than the Black variant as this year Apple chose not to offer any poppy colourways for the rest of the colours.
However, if want to opt for something trendy, all the other colours which include Blue, Green, Pink, and Yellow will get the job done. The Blue and Yellow specifically may have very toned-down shades which is something you should keep in mind.
iPhone 15 Pro or iPhone 15 Pro Max:
If you wish to stay ahead of the curved and want the most talked about colour option in the iPhone 15 Pro series then look no further than the Natural Titanium variant.
On the other hand, Blue Titanium, White Titanium, and Black Titanium are the classic colours which are offered by Apple on almost every iPhone generation. Irrespective of the colour you opt for, all the models this year feature curved edges that help in a comfortable grip.
FAQs
Does the iPhone 15 series attract fingerprints?
The standard iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus have a frosted rear glass panel and a matte finish aluminium frame which work in tandem to resist fingerprints, grease, and smudges. The display may still attack fingerprints during prolonged usage. On the other hand, the iPhone 15 Pro models do catch fingerprints on the titanium side frame.
Can the rear glass of the iPhone 15 Pro be easily cracked?
No, unless one exerts extreme amounts of pressure when bending the phone. That too would require an insane amount of force. Both the front and rear glass of the iPhone 15 Pro can withstand drops from certain heights which may only result in damages and scuffs on the body.
Do the colour options affect the price of the iPhone 15?
No, irrespective of the colour option you opt for, the price of the iPhone 15 remains the same for all shades. Prices differ only for the storage options and not the colours.
