Blogger Fixed Focus Digital said the reason why iPhone 17 Pro gave up titanium metalPossibly due to cost considerations,Apple has incorporated Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and baseband chips into its own research and development, which has increased the cost of mobile phones.
It is reported that iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max use aluminum bodies, with the frame and back panel being integrated, and the Apple Logo area is made of glass to achieve wireless charging.
Looking back at the history of iPhone development, titanium has been used in the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro series, especially the iPhone 15 Pro.At that time, Apple's official website directly used "titanium metal" frames as its main promotion direction.Emphasize that titanium is another new high-end material after stainless steel.
But for the iPhone 17 Pro series, Apple has returned to the aluminum body. Compared with titanium, aluminum has a lower density, making it easier to reduce the weight of the body and facilitate processing and transportation. However, in terms of texture, aluminum is not as good as stainless steel and titanium.
In terms of core configuration, the iPhone 17 Pro series uses a 120Hz high-refresh screen, is equipped with an A19 Pro chip, has a 24-megapixel front camera, three rear 48-megapixel cameras, and is pre-installed with the iOS 26 system.
