iPhone Air AIR titanium makes it best body of new lineup…17 PM even heavier this year.

[jsmith1]

I just looked up the weights and thankfully Apple use titanium and saved it just for the Air and now the 17 pro max is even heavier than the 16 pro Max. Wow that’s really gonna be a brick.

Can’t wait for tomorrow to say goodbye to bricks!

I’ll take one speaker all day long for the BEST titanium body all day long and then some.

Why would the Pro models at the highest price be made with aluminum? Is it was it Apple‘s way of saying listen if you’re gonna buy the pro max it didn’t matter whether it was gonna be aluminum or titanium so we’re gonna just save the titanium ….to me that’s worse than having one speaker…….

Heavier and not nearly as durable…either way glad they save the titanium resources for the Air…

They went with titanium for the Air to avoid bend gate 2.0.

For sure, innovative phone should have the premium resources

Thanks for saying things that we already noticed a week ago

It’s lighter than my 14PM 🤷‍♂️

By the way, Pro would have a different level if it had titanium

Would it be possible to be happy and excited about getting a new iPhone Air while also being happy for others getting a new iPhone regardless of their choice?

If this is a competition, many of us are not playing.

Now that is funny 😂

Fortunately now we have even more choice……..let’s all be friends.

“titanium's significantly greater strength means that you need less of it to achieve the same structural integrity as aluminum, which can result in a lighter final product in applications “

"Can" is the key word. The Ti watch weighs more than the Al watch. Aluminum is still the lighter choice. The Pro Max with a unibody titanium frame would have been cost prohibitive, but it would also weigh more. The increase weight is from battery, not metal.

Who cares? Get what you like and stop moaning.

Given that phones have become appliances for most, I'm waiting for the two-slot or four-slot toaster superiority rages to start on the community forums.

Seriously, buy what appeals to you and enjoy your purchase, no justification required.

 

[noobinator]

Everyone needs/wants justification for their purchase. It's happening on steroids on the forums right now.

 

[Lobwedgephil]

I for one have never cared about what other people choose as their phone.

 

[Spinarelo]

In order to feel good about and justify my purchase, I must go out of my way to bash all the other options 🤦‍♂️

More info I think, which is a good thing.

My phone is better than your phone. My phone has better battery, and materials . My phone looks much better. I laugh at your phone ha ha ha. Your decision was wrong, and I was smart . Good luck with your bad choice. What phone did I get? Not yours ha ha ha. Loser.

note: I get that we are all nervous about this. (I do appreciate threads like this so I can be openly snarky)

Thanks!

Even if you have a better phone than the other guy what’s the point of this? No one cares about your phone…
