The iPhone 16 Pro Max was leaked earlier this month in a strange brown color that confused everyone. It had a shade that resembled brown, and while it had its fans, it wasn’t universally loved.
However, according to one leaker who posted photos of the lenses with their colors, the color will actually be closer to gold. The new option will not have a copper hue as the original photos suggested, but will instead resemble the sand of the Sahara desert.
Apple iPhone 16 Pro/Pro Max available in: Titanium White, Titanium Black, Titanium Gold, Titanium Silver
All colors will be called Titanium — white, black, gray, or gold — which means the Natural and Blue options are being taken off the list. We’re still waiting to see what happens with the rumored Rose option, which may or may not be replaced by this new Gold version.
The colors of the iPhone 16 Pro and 16 Pro Max are expected to be more subdued, unlike the iPhone 16 series which will feature brighter options of blue, green, and pink.

We may also see a vertically aligned dual camera, something we haven’t seen since the iPhone 12 in 2020. The square camera island is also gone, which will be the first time this has happened since the iPhone X and iPhone XS series from more than half a decade ago.
