Titanium iPhone 15 Pro Weighs 19 Grams Less Than iPhone 14 Pro

[The-Real-Deal82]

People do realise titanium is very much a marketing gimmick don’t they? A few grams lighter but on a phone the mechanical properties of titanium are largely irrelevant.

I live the way it was sold as ‘stronger’ lol. What do they expect us to do with our phones, use them as tyre levers??

Technically, it seems like about 10% of “grams” lighter… no real indication the battery is smaller (actually the opposite) and the 3nm chip can’t be THAT much lighter.. the frame is the tiniest of sizes smaller… so maybe the Titanium really only offered ~ 7% overall in weight savings.

Seems like they did it on purpose, considering overall it’s probably slightly MORE expensive overall to manufacture (materials AND process) than stainless steel.

This is fantastic!
