Original poster Mar 7, 2013 967 274 Hey i am interested by midnight color from iPhone 13 or 13 Mini, it looks really black in most of pictures and videos (YT) but many claims it has very deep navy blue tint I wonder for anyone who owns Midnight color if its closer to black or navy blue tint is too distinguishable? Thanks

Nov 17, 2017 4,943 4,573 Well, I have the Midnight leather case (not phone), and it's definitely in the deep blue family, but if you don't have something pure black right next to it to compare, it could definitely be mistaken for black unless you're in good lighting. But if you hold something actually black right next to it, there is a distinct difference. If you want something that's unmistakably blue, then I'd say it's not the color for you.bubulol

Original poster Mar 7, 2013 967 274 Thanks, i d prefer black over blue I think Midnight color is the closest to the black color among any iPhone 13/Pro color this year Why Apple doesnt give us a full matte black color like Samsung does for S21 Ultra?! usagora

People looking to buy the S21 Ultra are probably asking, "Why doesn't Samsung give us a blue (or pink or red) color like Apple does for iPhone 13?!" 😉

Oct 9, 2015 95 152 My husband has the iPhone 13 in "Midnight". For all intents and purposes, it looks black about 99% of the time. It's only if you really stare intently at it, and in the right light, that you can see it's really not black but just a very very very dark dark navy blue. But it's not at all like the "Midnight" of the Apple Watch 7th Gen, which clearly looks navy blue and cannot be mistaken for black.

To my eye they are the same, but each of us can make their own call. The only 13 in the pic is the middle phone, the two minis are 12's.

Take them outside or hold them under more neutral light and you’ll see the difference. M

Apr 29, 2014 558 571 I have the 13 mini in Midnight. It really depends on lighting conditions and the environment. Under bright cooler (more blue) light, the midnight color looks very blue. Under warmer (more yellow/red) light, it will look much more black. I have bright 5000K light in my work from home area and the phone definitely looks navy.
My phone is in a black Spigen Tough Armor case, and the cutouts on the back definitely look more blue than the case in any lighting, although appear much closer in color under dim or warm light. My laundry room has warm white light and the phone looks nearly black due to the lack of light at the blue end of the spectrum demonstrated by Loosey Goosey's images. 
That said, in most environments, the phone tends to look more black than blue. It really does take significant amounts of blue light in the spectrum to make the color pop. bubulol

Original poster Mar 7, 2013 967 274 Last year, i picked the white one over black because at shop, under lights, it has sightly very deep navy tint This year, no matter if Midnight isnt true black lol, i got bored by white iPhone (Starlight is such disappointment to me) Bbubulol

Aug 24, 2012 7,181 10,092 Spain, Europe Hey, I’m a bit late, but it hasn’t been until now that I’ve had a midnight iPhone 13 in my home. Now that I can hold it with my own hands: No, it isn’t black, although it depends on the lightning, but on a well lit environment it is clearly a very deep blue. It is gorgeous, if you ask me. My favorite color along with the red one.

Thanks Click to expand...It appears black under dimmer conditions. The 13 Midnight had two colours essentially. The back glass and the chassis have different colours. The back glass will appear deep “inky blue” in bright conditions. The chassis however has a much more bluish hue to it. It actually looks closer to the Slate iPhone 5 under sunlight.
