Is Apple finally dropping the hot pink iPhone we've been waiting for?
A Barbie coloured iPhone could be a huge hit.
While it used to be a sea of silvers and greys, Apple has been embracing colour recently. The iPhone, iPad and iMac are all available in various dazzling hues these days, but there's one colour fans have been yearning for – and it might finally arrive in 2023.
Aside from the subtle 'rose gold' phones of yore, we've never been given a true, bonafide 'hot pink' iPhone. But while recent rumours have suggested green and red would be 2023's new colours, a prominent Apple leaker has now claimed the company is opting for pink. Which, given that this is the official year of the Barbie, makes perfect sense.
Apple leaker ShrimpApplePro has a solid track record, so their claim that a pink iPhone is on the way might hold more credence than most. The leaker claims that the news comes from an employee at Foxconn, which manufactures the iPhone, and has met with all manner of jubilant responses on Twitter.
