Leak claims to show new iPhone case colors, including Cantaloupe
An image from a Twitter leaker with no previous track record, appears to show that Apple is to release at least four new iPhone 12 cases, in different colors.
Purported iPhone case colors
Last year, Apple released a series of cases in spring colors for the iPhone 11 range in mid-March. Now it's rumored that it is about to do the same for the current iPhone 12 range, according to an image leaked on Twitter.
The leaker, called "Tommy Boi" and claiming to be from Seoul in the Republic of Korea, has no previous track record in reporting Apple leaks. However, the colors are mostly the same as a recent leak of MagSafe case ones.
In subsequent tweets, this leaker says that all four cases are made of silicone. And that neither the orange nor green ones are stain resistant.
It was later claimed that Apple is to name the colors Cantaloupe, Amethyst, Pistachio, and Capri Blue. It's not clear why "Tommy Boi" didn't initially have the color names.
