7 of our favorite iPhone colors since 2007
Apr 26, 2025
It’s not very often that Apple introduces a new iPhone color. However, that’s what might happen when it reveals the iPhone 17 this fall. According to a report, the iPhone 17 Pro could launch in Sky Blue, a color currently found on new MacBook Air units.
With this in mind, we took an unofficial poll to see which previous iPhone colors were our favorites. We narrowed our list to seven in no particular order. Some of our favorites might surprise you.
iPhone 5c (2013) – Green
The green iPhone 5c, released in 2013, was a significant departure from Apple’s traditionally more conservative color palette for its iPhones. This vibrant, almost lime-like green was one of five cheerful colors offered for the 5c, alongside blue, pink, yellow, and white.
Encased in a durable polycarbonate unibody, the green back panel had a glossy finish that felt smooth. The front of the device was black, creating a striking contrast with the bright green. This color option particularly appealed to a younger demographic and those looking for a more playful and expressive iPhone.
The green iPhone 5c was powered by the A6 chip, the same chip found in the iPhone 5, and featured a 4-inch Retina display and an 8-megapixel iSight camera. While it didn’t have all the advanced features of the flagship iPhone 5s, released simultaneously, the green iPhone 5c offered a capable and stylish entry point into the iOS ecosystem, with its bold color being a key differentiator and a memorable aspect of the device.
