The report states that a new hue, “Deep Blue”, will be available instead. It could be that something was lost in translation, but Apple dropping space gray as a color option would no doubt be a huge change. Losing the “Space Grey” option may open up room in the market for an all black version of the iPhone… just a suggestion Apple. The company faced major setbacks this year including an natural disaster, which led to issues with production targets.

One new area that Apple has heavily invested in is fashion.
As pointed out by the publication, the iPhone 6s fits perfectly in an iPhone 7 case, suggesting that the upcoming iPhone will more or less be similar to the current iteration in terms of size.
Apple is also expected to bring in slight changes to the overall design of the device that is going to benefit the overall user experience for sure. This metallic color has been introduced on the iPhone 5s in 2013 and two years later, a new color (Rose Gold) has determined many people to buy either the iPhone 6S or 6S Plus. Would you upgrade to the iPhone 7 from the iPhone 6S?
This rumor is in line with a new report that stated Apple will use an advanced imaging technology for the iPhone 7. Seeing a deep blue iPhone 7 variant could come to fruition though aspiring iPhone 7 owners (no matter how whittled down the believed probability is) may want to get one for collectability purposes.

As always, it’s best to take rumors of unannounced smartphones with a grain of salt. Nevertheless, given the popularity of Space Gray, and the fact that the color is usually the first ones to go out of stock in Apple Stores, there is a pretty good chance that Apple would simply add another color this year, without removing one of its traditional color options.
