The newly released Apple smartphone model is always the interest of people, and this is no exception. It is rumored that the iPhone 17 Pro will drop the titanium frame and go back to using that old aluminum frame. Users have become very curious because of this change.

iPhone 17 Pro

Is It The End Of The Era Of Titanium Frames?

Apple first launched the titanium frame on the iPhone 15 Pro series. In fact, this made the phone lighter along with the characteristic strength of titanium. However, the disadvantage of titanium is that it is generally very expensive and hence inflated the overall production costs. Thereafter, Apple is expected to bring back the aluminum frame for iPhone 17 Pro.

iPhone 17 Pro : Advantages Of The Aluminum Frame

There are several advantages that come with the aluminum frame:

It is relatively light.

Efficient for heat dissipation.

Costs a lot less compared to titanium.

Easier to customize in colors and designs.

Apple has used aluminum on a number of its previous models so that the consumers were already familiar with the robust quality.

What Does This Change Mean For Users?

If the rumor is indeed true, it would imply that buyers of the gadget will fetch the iPhone 17 Pro at cheaper rates. But then again, aluminum lacks that premium-feeling, which one might expect from the titanium. Also, the fact that the aluminum frame is more scratch-prone does not help matters.

Apple's Plan

Thus, according to experts, it is felt that Apple might be running an entirely different market strategy along this line for reduced cost. Then, this will provide one model with an aluminum chassis and then other premium models will be with titanium. This way, the opportunity for sales among different customer segments opens up widely.

There's a rumor for the 17 Pro, and it has currently set the market on fire. Even though nothing is official yet, cascading back to an aluminum frame would be a significant step for Apple. Time will tell how successful this decision will be.
