Description:
A leak suggests we could see a new green shade for the iPhone 13, along with
a purple option for the upcoming iPad Air 5.

FULL STORY ======================================================================

Today (March 8) is the day of Apples first event of 2022 , and while we thought we had a good idea of what to expect, two additional details have
just been leaked, and they relate to new device colors.

According to "people familiar with the matter" speaking to YouTuber Luke
Miani , well see a new dark green shade for the iPhone 13 , joining the existing pink, blue, midnight (black), starlight (white), and red options.

While this shade is fairly dark, its also quite bold, and sure to stand out compared to the black, white and extremely pale pink shades currently available. Its not quite as showy as the red model, but it looks to slot in nicely alongside the blue, giving buyers another option for a bold but not blinding color.

Well also apparently see an iPad Air model land in purple. This would be the new iPad Air 5 that has long been rumored to be making its debut at the
event, but the color is a new one for the range too.

Based on the leaked images that you can see here its a pale shade, similar to the one on the iPad mini (2021) , and it fits in with the current iPad Air color choices (though its unclear whether all the current options will remain for the new model).

So these are two quite different new shades one aims to stand out, while the other aims to blend in. Though we would of course take all of this with a pinch of salt. These are believable claims, not least because Apple launched
a new iPhone 12 shade at this event last year, but this leak also comes from
a source who doesnt have much of a track record.

Still, the good thing about it being the day of the event is that we wont
have to wait long to find out if these colors really are on the way. Opinion: more color is always a good thing

Hopefully this leak is right, because giving buyers more choice in the look
of their phones and tablets can only be a good thing. A device should look good and be able to reflect your style, which can be hard to achieve when there are only a handful of color choices (and two of them are inevitably black and white).

Bolder colors like this green are especially nice to see, as manufacturers often shy away from them although more so in top-end devices like the iPhone 13 Pro , so its a shade that wed be even happier to see applied to that
phone.

Still, a green iPhone 13 is a step in the right direction. Maybe one day
Apple will take a giant leap and let buyers create custom color combinations like Samsung allows on the Galaxy Z Flip 3 , but well take what we can get
for now. Apple March Event live : iPhone SE 3, iPad Air 5, new M2 MacBooks
