Rumors are rife that Huawei could release the next iteration of the P9 — dubbed the Huawei P10 — in a gamut of colors.
According to a new leak on Chinese microblogging site Weibo, the Huawei P10 could come in several exciting colors, namely green and purple. Previous rumors have hinted at the smartphone being made available in gold, pink, and black.
A Weibo account belonging to a user who goes by the handle ichangezone has shared images of the purported Huawei P10 smartphone donning the new hues. The images shared by the user shows the smartphone in a light green color, a pastel purple, and gold.
The Huawei P9 is available in blue and red hues, which it benefitted from recently, and seeing the popularity of the additional colors, the company may have decided to offer the P10 in additional hues.
Whether the Huawei P10's bigger sibling, the rumored P10 Plus, will also benefit from the new colors is not known.
