The iPhone 18 Pro comes in four colors: Black, Silver, Glacier and Burgundy. Both the 6.3-inch iPhone 18 Pro and the 6.9-inch iPhone 18 Pro Max are offered in all four, and there is no color exclusive to either size.
The headline change is that Black is back after the iPhone 17 Pro skipped it, while last year’s Cosmic Orange has been dropped. Our iPhone 18 Pro Black story has a closer look at that finish, and our announcement coverage covers everything else Apple confirmed.
Every iPhone 18 Pro color explained
| Color | What it looks like | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Black | Dark black finish | Returns after being absent from iPhone 17 Pro |
| Silver | Light neutral finish | Carried over |
| Glacier | Light blue | New this year |
| Burgundy | Dark cherry red | New this year |
Glacier and Burgundy are the two new names. Glacier is a pale, icy blue, and Burgundy is a deep red closer to dark cherry than to a bright red. Apple has not published a Natural or titanium-named option in the release.

Which iPhone 17 Pro colors are gone?
Cosmic Orange, the standout finish of the iPhone 17 Pro line, is not in the iPhone 18 Pro lineup. Apple has not said why it was retired, and it did not announce a bright accent color to replace it.
- Cosmic Orange: gone
- Black: added back
- Glacier (light blue): new
- Burgundy (dark cherry red): new
- Silver: continues
Apple’s release describes the iPhone 18 Pro as carrying over the 17 Pro design with a new rear finish, so the colors sit on a slightly different surface treatment than last year. Apple has not detailed what the new finish is made of.
Does color affect price or availability?
No. All four colors start at $1,199 for the iPhone 18 Pro and $1,299 for the Pro Max, and all four are available at pre-order on Saturday, September 12 at 5 a.m. PT with delivery from Friday, September 18. Apple has not said whether any color is expected to sell out first.
If you cannot settle on one, Apple’s updated Clear Case shows the finish through, while the silicone and FineWoven cases cover it. Apple has not published the case colors that pair with each phone finish.
