Read on to find out more about all the iPhone colours and how to choose the right one for you.

Is iPhone 13 Midnight black?

The Midnight colour is almost black, and it's the darkest shade available for the iPhone 13 and 13 Mini. While it's nearly black, it does contain a slight navy blue tint. This is the first time in the history of iPhones that Apple has offered this type of variation on black by giving it a different tone. Buy a refurbished iPhone 13 midnight or refurbished iPhone 13 mini midnight at Back Market.

Apple Watch 7, released at the same time as the iPhone 13, is also available in the same Midnight colour. This colour is a nice departure from the iPhone 12 line up, which featured a pure black shade.

What colour is Starlight for the iPhone 13 and 13 Mini?

Starlight is a warm white shade, the lightest in the range. The colour Starlight is available for the iPhone 13 and 13 Mini, as well as Apple Watch 7. Compared with previous iPhone colours, Starlight is a warmer shade of white. Buy a refurbished iPhone 13 starlight or refurbished iPhone 13 mini starlight at Back Market.

Apple has managed this colour adjustment very well; the cream-coloured iPhone 13 looks extremely chic and elegant. Not only did Apple change up its darkest shade offering by infusing a bit of navy blue into the Midnight colour, but it also offers a different variation on stark white with the Starlight colour option. Both Midnight and Starlight were popular enough to carry over into the iPhone 14 colours.

PRODUCT(RED) iPhone 13 colour

If the bright red iPhone 13 colour looks familiar, that's because it's carried over from previous Apple products. Apple partners with PRODUCT(RED) to offer this bold colour choice, with a portion of proceeds going towards the Global Fund to combat COVID-19. Apple has donated up to $250 million to help fight HIV and AIDS, among other things, over the past 14 years through the sale of products with (PRODUCT)RED. Buy a refurbished PRODUCT(RED) iPhone 13, or a refurbished PRODUCT(RED) iPhone 13 mini from Back Market.

The iPhone 13 Mini and base model iPhone 13 are both available in red. While most of the iPhone 13 colours are muted tones, the red colour is the boldest and definitely the most eye-catching. The colour is so bright, you might be tempted not to cover it up with a case. Luckily, you can always opt for a clear case to let your red iPhone 13 show through while still protecting it from drops!

Blue iPhone 13 colour

The blue iPhone 13 colour is different from the shade of blue available on iPhone 12. The iPhone 13 colour is a warmer blue with a slight turquoise or teal tint, whereas the iPhone 12 blue is a bolder and colder shade of blue.

The blue iPhone 13 and iPhone13 mini in blue are both available in blue (note that it's a different shade of blue for the iPhone 13 Pro and Pro Max, we'll get to that later though).

Pink iPhone 13 colour

The pink iPhone 13 and pink iPhone 13 mini is a muted, pastel shade that looks great with the silver Apple logo on the back of the phone. It's not too bright, which keeps this shade feeling fresh.

Green iPhone 13 colour

While iPhone 13 wasn't originally released in green, Apple added the green colour option for iPhone 13 and iPhone 13 mini green in March 2022. It's a dark, muted green colour that differs slightly from the Alpine Green shade offered on the iPhone 13 Pro models (more on this later).

What colours are available for the iPhone 13 Pro and Pro Max?

The iPhone 13 Pro and Pro Max colours are:

• Sierra Blue

• Graphite

• Gold

• Silver

• Alpine Green

Apple also changed up its iPhone 13 Pro and Pro Max colours, offering a choice of metallic gold or silver, a dark shade of graphite, or the more colourful Sierra Blue and Alpine Green shades. Sierra Blue is basically an updated version of the brand's Pacific Blue colour; it's a slightly lighter and more pastel shade of blue. Sierra Blue colour is available for both the iPhone 13 Pro Max and Pro models. It's worth considering this shade because it stands out and looks unique. The silver colour variant for the 13 Pro and 13 Pro Max looks classy and is the most elegant of the iPhone 13 colours.

If you want something flashier, the gold colour is the way to go because it has shiny sides - Explore our refurbished iPhone 13 Pro gold models, or a refurbished iPhone 13 Pro Max in gold from Back Market. Graphite is the darkest colour option for the iPhone 13 Pro and Pro Max. Buy a refurbished iPhone 13 Pro graphite, or a refurbished iPhone 13 Pro Max in graphite from Back Market.

In Spring 2022, Apple added the Alpine Green colour to the iPhone 13 Pro and 13 Pro Max. Alpine Green is not as dark as Apple's popular previous Night Green shade, and not as light as the iPhone 11 green shade. Instead, it's a rich forest green that looks fresh and fun.

What is the most popular iPhone 13 colour?

The most popular colour on the iPhone 13 and iPhone 13 Mini is Midnight, followed by Blue and Starlight. Pink and Red are at the bottom of the list, as they probably appeal to a somewhat smaller group of customers. The most popular iPhone 13 Pro and iPhone 13 Pro Max colour is graphite. However, it is closely followed by Sierra Blue, which seems to be Apple fans' favorite new colour. Silver comes in third place and gold rounds out the group as the least popular colour choice.

Which colours are missing from the iPhone 13 line up?

Even though the iPhone 13 colours are particularly nice (especially Midnight, Starlight, and Pink), some Apple fans miss the brighter colours like the purple iPhone 11 and the rich night green from the iPhone 11 Pro series. All of the iPhone 13 colours look very good, and in the end it's a matter of personal preference which colour you like best. Regardless of which colour you choose, it's always a good idea to protect your phone with a case.
