The thing I’m most excited to see from Apple’s big ‘Glowtime’ event

The iPhone 6 isn’t the first or last model to come with a gold finish. The iPhone 14 Pro Max has a gold option, but Apple took a more understated approach to the natural titanium shade of the iPhone 15 Pro.

For me, the gold iPhone 6 stood out as a must-have color. Maybe it just reminds me of a time of wired headphones and Snapchat filters, but its successors have fallen short so far.

And aside from the revamped color options, the iPhone 16 will be the first iPhone released in the era of Apple Intelligence, and the Pro models will have a camera button on the right side to take photos, according to Bloomberg.

If Gurman is impressed enough to ditch his current finish for a gold iPhone 16 Pro, then I’m excited to see if it can motivate me to upgrade from my purple iPhone 14 Pro Max.

After all, Wedbush Securities analyst Dan Ives has been calling it a “golden upgrade cycle.”
