- New details about the upcoming iPhones appear to have leaked
on Apple’s own website. - Several websites and coders dug into the Apple website’s
product sitemap and discovered the names, storage options, and
colors of the upcoming devices. - The higher-end iPhone XS and XS Max are expected to come in
space gray, silver, and gold, while the lower-cost iPhone XR is
expected to come in six colors: black, white, red, yellow, coral,

Thanks to a leak from Apple’s own website, we may now the colors
of the upcoming iPhones — phones that are expected to be revealed
later on Wednesday at an event on the Apple campus in Cupertino,
California.
Sites like The Verge and ATH, along with coder Steve Troughton-Smith,
have dug into the Apple website’s product sitemap XML
file — the code powering the website — and found several direct
references to the upcoming phones, including the
colors.
The new phones — which the sitemap reveals are
called the iPhone XS, the iPhone XS Max, and the iPhone XR —
will come in more colors than last year’s iPhone X, iPhone 8, and
iPhone 8 Plus:
- The higher-end iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max
are both expected to come in three colors: space gray, silver,
and gold. That’s one more color than last year’s iPhone X, which
only came in space gray and silver. - The iPhone XR, which is expected to cost
less due to its 6.1-inch LCD display, is expected to come in a
whopping six colors: black, white, red, yellow, coral, and
blue.
The leak also revealed the storage options of the new
devices, which are larger in size than ever before: the
iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max will come in 64GB, 256GB, and
512GB options, while the iPhone XR will come in 64GB, 128GB, or
256GB.
Apple is expected to share more
details on Wednesday afternoon at its annual iPhone event in
California. You can follow along at the Tech Insider
