Leaker Sonny Dickson posted images of iPhone 18 Pro dummy models showing the expected four color options: Light Blue, Black, Silver, and Dark Cherry. These plastic prototypes represent the first physical look at what Apple's next flagship lineup might offer, though the finish quality differs from production units.

Dark Cherry emerges as the standout new color, described as a wine-like shade closer to burgundy and muted compared to last year's Cosmic Orange. Rumors trace back to February when Bloomberg's Mark Gurman reported Apple was testing deep red finishes, with supply chain sources indicating Android competitors were also exploring similar tones.

The leaker known as Instant Digital previously confirmed the Dark Cherry name, characterizing it as combining burgundy, coffee, and deep purple tones. This source has a solid track record, accurately predicting the iPhone 14's yellow finish. Each color reportedly carries specific Pantone codes used internally at Apple.

While dummy models don't reflect final build quality, they align with months of supply chain reporting suggesting this represents Apple's intended color palette. The iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max are expected to debut this fall alongside the company's first foldable iPhone model.
