The Apple iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max Cosmic Orange models are drawing attention for an unexpected issue. Many users have noticed that their phones’ vibrant orange color is fading to a pink shade, especially on the aluminum frame and camera housing. Reports are coming in from early owners who chose the Cosmic Orange variant, highlighting this color shift as a surprising problem.
Why is the Color Fading?
Users suspect the fading issue may be due to the anodized finish on the aluminum frame, which might not hold the orange pigment as well as expected. Some have speculated that exposure to sunlight, heat, or even skin oils could accelerate the fading process. Apple has not released an official statement yet, but affected users are hoping for a resolution or replacement program in the near future.
If you own an iPhone 17 Pro or Pro Max in Cosmic Orange, keep an eye on your device’s coloration. Consider using a case to protect the frame and camera housing. We’ll update this post as soon as Apple shares more information or announces a fix.
