iPhone 17 Air Titanium Frame: As the launch of Apple’s iPhone 17 series is coming close, more information about the upcoming iPhones is coming out. This year’s main attraction will be the iPhone 17 Air, which will be Apple’s thinnest iPhone ever. We have already got many leaks that show how new iPhones will look, and all of them indicate new camera design, except the ordinary iPhone 17. According to a report by Macrumors, there is another rumor of another change in the design of the iPhone 17. Apple analyst Jeff Pu says the iPhone 17 Air will have a titanium frame, as reported in a report by Macrumors. Pu further said that the iPhone 17, iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max will have aluminum frames. These information was mentioned in an investor note this week with the equity research firm GF Securities seen by Macrumrs. This is an interesting option as Apple has so far reserved more expensive and strong titanium material for its Pro model. The titanium was first introduced with the iPhone 15 Pro and the iPhone 15 Pro Max. Even the iPhone 16 series also has only the Titanium in the Pro model, while the regular model has aluminum.
Will get tremendous design
Apple’s Pro models are the most expensive in this lineup and hence they are given titanium coating. If the report proves correct, it will be interesting to see this change in the iPhone 17 lineup. The iPhone 17 Air is proving to be one of the most attractive design reforms made by Apple in years. With 5.5 mm thickness, it will not only be the thinnest iPhone ever, but will also be thinner than almost any major smartphone in the market – including Galaxy S25 EDGE (5.8 mm) and even Apple has its own iPhone 6 (6.9 mm). Titanium can help improve structural strength, it is also heavier than aluminum, so Apple must carefully balance the materials to maintain a feeling of lightness according to the “air” branding.
Pro model will have titanium frame
Pro models used to get premium builds with titanium, but if this rumor is correct, Air will replace Plus, become a design-forward device, it is not clear what it means for the pro lineup, especially if it returns to aluminum, but some color leakes indicates that the titanium may still be in the trend. In any case, the iPhone 17 Air, a high-level, ultra-slim phone by Apple can be a way to meet the long-standing demand.
