Sources speaking to Japanese publisher MacOtakara said a 'pure white' version of the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus could be brought out in the future.
'Apple seems to have a plan to add a pure white model to iPhone 7, iPhone 7 Plus,' the website said.
The website cited the source as a 'supplier'.
'But this information may be unreliable,' the site added.
The company currently offers the iPhone 7 and 7 Plus in jet black, black, gold, rose gold and silver, while the Apple Watch is already available in a ceramic white.
MailOnline contacted Apple for comment on the rumours but, at the time of writing, had not received a response.
Macotakara was one of the first sources to predict the death of the iPhone’s headphone jack.
Apple launched the iPhone 7 and the iPhone 7 Plus at a San Francisco event in September.
The stakes for the iPhone 7 were high after sales of the gadget dropped during two straight quarters this year, the first declines in its history.

The new phones feature improved cameras and eliminate the traditional headphone jack in favour of new technology.
Instead, users can plug into a Lighting port or can opt to use wireless 'AirPod' headphones that cost £159 in the UK and $159 in the US.
Reaction to the change was mixed, with many people taking to Twitter to mock the price of the AirPods and how easy they could be to lost.
But others have praised the move - which Apple says took 'courage' - highlighting the importance of innovation to the iPhone's enduring popularity.
