Apple put all the speculations to rest by announcing the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus in September. The smartphones were launched in five colours, with the new one being Jet Black, while the Black (Matte) colour was re-introduced. However, a fresh report now claims that the Cupertino giant plans to launch another 'Jet White' colour variant as well - which though a misnomer, can be thought to mean a glossy white colour variant.
This report comes from the Japanese Apple blog Macotakara, and it shows the iPhone 7 sporting a supposed Jet White color, serving as a counterpart to its Jet Black iPhone 7. The Jet White color option could be for both the iPhone 7 and the iPhone 7 Plus as well. As of now, there is no official word from Apple’s end about the glossy white color for the iPhone 7. Although Macotakara has been quite accurate with information about Apple in the past, the blog does put a disclaimer saying that its source might have low credibility. So it would be better not to get our hopes up too soon. Nevertheless, if this news turns out to be true it would surely be a good surprise.
In any case, the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus are for now available in Gold, Rose Gold, Silver, Black (Matte), and Jet Black colour variants. Not only does the Jet Black variant have the scratches issue, it has also infamously been dubbed as a ‘fingerprint magnet’. People have complained saying that holding the iPhone 7 Jet Black variant just once led to numerous fingerprints all over it. Although the Jet Black variant has proved to come with these problems, its demand is known to be the highest. If Apple were to add the Jet White color to its iPhone 7 lineup, a similar response may occur despite the issues that come along with it.
