iPhone 17 Pro now rumored to stick with titanium frame
There has been a lot of buzz lately about the materials Apple will use for the iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max, which are expected to release in 2025. Last week, a report came out claiming that Apple might be making a big change. According to this report, Apple is considering moving away from the premium materials it has used recently, such as titanium and stainless steel, and instead returning to aluminum for the frame of the iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max. Furthermore, this would be a significant shift because aluminum is a cheaper material compared to the other two.
However, today a new source from Weibo, a popular social media platform in China, has contradicted this rumor. The leakster claims that returning to aluminum for the Pro models would be a huge mistake for Apple. The source argues that it would harm Apple’s reputation because the company has spent years convincing customers that materials like stainless steel and titanium are superior to aluminum. Making the iPhone feel more premium and high-quality!
Additionally, Apple has recently used premium materials like stainless steel and titanium for its Pro iPhones to make them feel more luxurious. However, switching back to aluminum for the iPhone 17 Pro could save Apple money since aluminum is cheaper. Despite this, Apple could still market the phone as a high-quality product, making more profit without highlighting the cost difference.
The iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max won’t be released until 2025, so it’s unclear which material Apple will use for the frames. Leaks and rumors may not always be accurate. For most users, the material may not matter, especially if you use a case. For others, it could affect the phone’s feel and premium look. Furthermore, Apple’s decision will likely balance high-quality materials and profit. We’ll have to wait until 2025 to know for sure. Does the material matter to you, or do you care more about performance?
