Apple’s upcoming iPhone 18 Pro series may bring back a familiar colour option, according to a fresh leak. An image circulating online appears to show SIM trays in multiple shades, including silver, suggesting that the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max could once again be offered in a silver finish.
The latest leak adds another twist to the growing list of reports surrounding Apple’s next flagship smartphones. Earlier claims had pointed towards a completely different colour lineup, with silver reportedly being left out.
However, Apple has not officially confirmed the colours, specifications or other details of the iPhone 18 Pro series. The information should therefore be treated as preliminary until the company makes an official announcement.
iPhone 18 Pro Colour Options Leak
Tipster Sonny Dickson (@SonnyDickson) recently shared an image on X that reportedly shows SIM trays associated with the upcoming iPhone 18 Pro models.
The components appear in burgundy, blue and silver, potentially offering a glimpse at some of the colours Apple could use for its next-generation Pro iPhones.
The silver shade is particularly noteworthy because it contradicts an earlier leak that claimed Apple could drop silver from the iPhone 18 Pro lineup.
Another recent report had suggested three possible colours for the upcoming models: Burgundy, Pure Black and Sky Blue. According to that claim, silver would not be among the available finishes.
The newly leaked image, however, appears to show a silver component alongside burgundy and blue variants. This has reignited speculation that Apple could offer both familiar and new colour choices with the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max.
Could Black Also Be an iPhone 18 Pro Colour?
There is still uncertainty surrounding the black colour option.
While some previous reports have claimed that Apple is working on a darker black finish for its next Pro models, Dickson’s latest post does not establish whether black will actually be offered.
Earlier leaks have suggested that the proposed black shade could be noticeably darker than the black option seen on the iPhone 17 series.
For now, the reported colour lineup remains unconfirmed. Apple could ultimately launch the phones with a different selection of finishes from those shown in the leaks.
iPhone 18 Pro Launch Date and Event Details
Apple is expected to reveal its next-generation flagship iPhones at its upcoming event at Apple Park in Cupertino.
The company is expected to unveil the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max alongside other new products. Reports have also pointed towards a new book-style foldable iPhone, along with the next-generation Apple Watch and AirPods.
The event is reportedly scheduled for September 9 at 10:00 am PT, which corresponds to 10:30 pm IST.
These event details should be checked against Apple’s official announcement before publication or immediately prior to the event, particularly because product lineups and launch schedules can change.
iPhone 18 Pro Expected Specifications
Beyond the colour leaks, several reports have already suggested possible hardware upgrades for the iPhone 18 Pro series.
The iPhone 18 Pro is expected to feature Apple’s next-generation A20 Pro chipset, potentially bringing improvements in processing performance and efficiency.
The phones are also expected to retain a broadly familiar design language, including a triple-camera setup on the rear.
However, Apple has not yet officially confirmed the processor, camera specifications or final design of the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max.
What We Know About the iPhone 18 Pro So Far
The latest leak adds silver to the list of possible finishes, but it does not conclusively establish Apple’s final colour lineup. At present, reports have mentioned shades including silver, burgundy, blue, black and Sky Blue/Pure Black variants, although these claims conflict with one another.
The safest expectation is that Apple will settle the speculation when it officially unveils the devices.
Until then, the leaked SIM-tray image should be viewed as an indication rather than confirmation of the iPhone 18 Pro’s retail colours.
