What colors does the iPhone 17 Pro come in?

Macworld's sources listed iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max colors as Black, White, Gray, Dark Blue and Orange.

Did it turn out to be true?

Partly right. Some of this was right and some of it was not. Macworld reported it on Jul 16, 2025. That was 55 days before Apple iPhone 17 Pro was announced on Sep 9, 2025. Deep Blue and Cosmic Orange correspond to two predicted finishes and Silver broadly covers the gray/silver family, but Black and White were not launch colors for iPhone 17 Pro.
