JAKARTA - Apple's latest iPhone design has become a hot topic of conversation, the iPhone 17 Pro is rumored to be present in a special color with the theme "Liquid Glass", blending with the futuristic and transparent iOS 26 new interface. But... Is this rumor true or just a sensation?
Apple has introduced a new interface design called Liquid Glass on iOS 26, which features UI elements such as clear glass and dynamic transparency effects. But the latest rumors from Chinese leaker, Setsuna Digital (ALAS Instant Digital), claim that Apple not only brought the concept to software, but also to the physical design of the iPhone 17 Pro!
According to his post on Weibo, the iPhone 17 Pro will reportedly have a special color scheme that reflects the aesthetics of Liquid Glass. The base color is said to be white, but will display a different light-dependent effect, similar to pearl paint on a luxury car.
"I only heard about it, but have never seen it firsthand," wrote the leaker, which immediately made many people doubt his claims.
It should be noted that Setsuna Digital does not have a strong track record of leaking Apple information. He has also made unproven claims about an Apple Watch made entirely of glass. Plus, in his own post he himself admitted that he had never seen this iPhone 17 Pro Liquid Glass in person.
What is even more confusing is that this claim contradicts other leaks that have already been circulating. The colors of the iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max mentioned by various other sources actually include:
- Orange or Copper (introduction)
- Dark Titanium, Gray, Or Natural
- Old Blue
- White or Silver
Rumors about the Young Blue variant have previously been withdrawn by the original source. So, is it possible that the white variant mentioned earlier is the device with the Liquid Glass effect? Maybe, but it seems unlikely.
It is possible that these rumors are actually wrong due to translation errors, and what is meant is not the physical color of the device, but a visual effect in the operating system. Apple is known to often fine-tune their visual effects, and Liquid Glass on iOS 26 has indeed been updated many times since the early beta version included transparency level adjustments and read-out improvements.

Apple has also been known to connect UI elements with physical elements. For example, the original MagSafe case presents color animation that matches the color of the case when installed. So, it's not impossible if Apple adjusts the Liquid Glass effect based on the iPhone model or color.
More realistic, it could be that Apple will make this Liquid Glass effect changeable by users through settings, either based on models, physical colors, or just personal preferences.
Although the rumors about the iPhone 17 Pro Liquid Glass sound tantalizing, the level of validity is highly questionable. But still, this kind of speculation reflects the high enthusiasm for Apple's increasingly futuristic and personal design direction.
Will Apple really put together software and hardware aesthetics through Liquid Glass colors that can change depending on light? Or is this just a wild imagination from leakers? What is clear, the eyes of the world are on September, when Apple officially unveils the iPhone 17 Pro.
