Apple is coming in less than two weeks introduce your first foldable iPhone and as the premiere approaches, leaks are of course also multiplying. This time we are to learn something as seemingly banal as the color varianty. But one of them could be a rather big surprise. At least that's what a reliable source has claimed in the past. leaker Evan Blass, according to whom the new product will arrive in not two, but three colors. However, there is one major catch – another reliable source of information goes directly against him.

About colored variafolding table iPhone se has spoken several times in recent months. However, the leaks so far have been fairly consistent in that Apple will be more conservative with its first foldable phone. There has been talk of silver-white and dark blue, with earlier reports from the supply chain also talking about white or light silver and darker black or gray variaBut Blass has now come out with the idea that iPhone Ultra It could also arrive in red. That would therefore be a rather unexpected move. Especially for a device that is supposed to be not only the first foldable iPhone, but also the most expensive iPhone in history Apple.

Beware of the leak itself
But here we need to temper our enthusiasm a bit. The images published by Evan Blass appear to have been created using AI. For example, you can notice inconsistencies in the interface. iOSwhich uses an older battery indicator design from iOS 26 instead of the current one iOS 27. Of course, this does not mean that the information about the color red itself must be automatically incorrect. It just needs to be taken with a fairly large margin. There is currently no other credible source that would variafolding iPhone confirmed.
And an even more interesting thing has emerged. Reporter Bloombergat Mark Gurman information about red variaHe directly denied it, saying that according to him, no red iPhone Ultra Apple is not going to. What is extremely interesting is that, according to him, Xiaomi is behind the leak for some reason, which was supposed to create these renders and send them to the world. Maybe he wants to "bait" them Apple fans who could subsequently be absent from the red variaI'm disappointed. However, this is really just my speculation.
It is of course possible that Apple during development colorful varianty changed several times. But equally, the red could just be a fabrication or a misinterpretation of leaked materials. And honestly, with a foldable iPhone I would lean towards a more cautious scenario. Apple will likely produce the first generation in relatively limited quantities, and it will be an extremely expensive device. It doesn't make much sense to complicate production with even more colors.

It will be clear in two weeks.
What is certain, however, is that we won't have to wait long for these speculations to be confirmed. Apple its iPhone event will be held on September 9th, with the folding iPhone should be one of the main stars of the entire presentation. According to current leaks, it should offer a book-like design, an external display of around 5,5″ and an internal screen of around 7,8″. The price should start at around $2000 and the device should also bring a few compromises, such as the absence of a telephoto lens or Face ID.
And if Apple it will actually show red too variantu, it will be quite a pleasant surprise for me. For the first folding iPhone I would have expected a boring black, white or silver. Red, on the other hand, could be exactly the striking detail that would make such an unusual iPhone even more differentiated. But I definitely wouldn't bet on it just yet. Gurman's direct description of this information as incorrect is a fairly strong counterargument at this point.
