Apple has quietly added some new iPhone XS cases and Apple Watch bands to its Online Store.

Its silicone cases and sport bands now come in hibiscus, mellow yellow, and pacific green. Apple has also added the celestial teal, olive flak, and smokey mauve Nike Sport bands that were made available through nike.com earlier this month.

Apple’s cases and bands are some of the best you can buy — if you’re willing to spend the extra cash. And with new color options added periodically, there’s always something new to try.

November’s additions are just as pretty as all the rest.

The silicone cases for iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max, which are priced at $39 each, now come in the hibiscus, mellow yellow, and pacific green finishes you see above.

The same color options are also available for the Apple Watch sport band, priced at $49 each. They’re available in 40mm and 44mm sizes to fit all Watch models.

You can also buy the Nike Sport band and Nike Sport loop in celestial teal, olive flak, and smokey mauve. They’re not as bright or as vibrant as the other options, but if you’re looking for something more subtle, they could be right up your alley.

The new cases and bands should be available in Apple Stores from next Tuesday, but most can be delivered to your door by Monday. Sadly, there’s still no sign of official iPhone XR cases.
