Key Takeaways
- Apple unveiled new colors for iPhone cases and watchbands, with spring-like hues, including Soft Mint, Sunshine, and Pink.
- The new Hermès bands come in similar colors but are pricier, starting at $350 and with longer shipping times.
- Apple also announced updated MacBook Air models, and we expect new iPad Pro and iPad Air models coming soon.
Bright and early Monday morning, March 4th, Apple announced an updated MacBook Air lineup that added its M3 processor to its most popular laptops. What Apple didn’t announce was it also released several new colors for some of its most popular accessories.
It also released several new colors for some of its most popular accessories.
Those accessories? The Silicone Case for the iPhone, along with most of its Apple Watch band models. Notably missing from the list of bands with a new color or design is any of the Apple Watch Ultra bands, which is undoubtedly a bummer for Apple Watch Ultra users.

Faster performance, improved Wi-Fi, and a fingerprint-free Midnight color are just a few things to care about.
As far as the new Silicone Case colors go, Apple frequently updates its case lineup with new colors to match the time of year. As such, the new colors are very spring-like and include Soft Mint, Sunshine, Light Blue, and Pink. Here’s what they look like:

New fashion and colors for Apple Watch bands
Apple’s already taking orders for the new watchband colors, with deliveries or in store pickup starting Wednesday, March 6.

Slight delay on the Hermès Apple Watch bands
The new Hermès bands aren’t as readily available as the iPhone cases and less expensive watchbands. For instance, the Hermès Bleu Céleste/Écru Toile H Single Tour won’t ship until the last week of April or early May if ordered right now.
Outside of the new MacBook Air models and new colors for iPhone cases and watchbands, we’re still expecting Apple to announce new iPad Pro models, new iPad Air models, as well as new iPad accessories such as a new Magic Keyboard and Apple Pencil.

We’ve got our hands on the new Yellow colour of the iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Plus. Here’s what it looks like.
Awaiting new iPhone colors
One other springtime announcement Apple has traditionally made is a new color for the latest iPhone model. For instance, last year there was a yellow iPhone 14 and 14 Plus.
There haven’t been any leaks or rumors about a new color for the iPhone 15, but I wouldn’t be surprised if we see new colors announced at some point this month. Last year, Apple unveiled the yellow iPhone in the second week of March.
