The Verge's Dieter Bohn described the new color as "more like a lilac," but still said that it was unmistakable:
Mashable's Brenda Stoylar said that the new color is "very pretty," and noted that it is "more of a periwinkle or a lavender" than purple.
Chris Velazco of Engadget also noted the more subdued nature of the purple, but interesting observed that it is "roughly the same pastel shade that last year's purple iPhone 11 came in."
iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 mini in the new purple color will ship with iOS 14.5, according to Apple.
Apple continues to sell the iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 mini in existing colors, including Black, White, Blue, Green, and (PRODUCT)RED. Pricing starts at $699 for the iPhone 12 mini and $799 for the iPhone 12 in the United States.
The iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 mini will be available in the new purple color starting April 30, with pre-orders starting this Friday.
Apple is also releasing a new MagSafe Leather Case and Leather Sleeve in Deep Violet, a Silicone Case in Capri Blue, Pistachio, Cantaloupe, or Amethyst, and a Leather Wallet in Arizona, which are all available to order now.
