I think you’re replying to the wrong person. All I did was reverse your anecdotal evidence for more anecdotal evidence. It’s a little ironic you have a problem with that. Carry on.

iPhone 17 Pro Can’t believe Apple released an iPhone Pro that feels this cheap.

Well, to each their own. I have both the Air and Pro. And the Air in-hand feels like the better device with better finish quality.
I know this might be an unpopular opinion but when I went from 14 Pro to 15 Pro it felt like a downgrade in build quality. I thought the stainless steel on the 14 Pro looked more premium than the titanium 15 Pro. 🤷♂️
You should learn to take your own advice and read more carefully.
100% recycled aluminum in the internal structural frame.
The outer frame and finish is titanium.
Agreed. The stainles steel also shined a little more lol
Oh so I’m not the only one. 👍
And I also agree. It did shine beautifully, yeah it was a fingerprint magnet but who cares.
BS. Literally everyone I know and every person I've ever seen, anywhere. Uses a case on their phone. Everyone else's experience is the same. Real world. Not fictional internet world. No matter what you claim on your anonymous message board, you are not correct. Unreality.
There are cameras made of plastic that cost more than an iPhone Pro. The pros may not feel "premium" but Apple didnt market them as premium, thats what the Air is. The pro is for people who will push the limits of what the phone can do. Personally I appreciate aluminum and less glass. My 16 Pro dims the screen quite quickly in the sun when im running the camera. I'll take better thermals over "premium" any day. Its a tool not jewelry.
Invalid. There are hundreds of people on these forums that indicate they don’t use cases. There are many, many threads about it.
None of my friends or family use a case. Maybe all of yours do. Surveys show just under 70% of iPhone owners do as of October 2023. https://cirpapple.substack.com/p/what-else-can-apple-sell-to-iphone
Feel free to produce any data that indicates 99% of iPhone owners use a case, which is what was claimed. We all know that’s blatantly false.
My post literally said IGNORE what dozens of anonymous people claim on the internet, because it doesn't represent reality at all. So you double down on the most flawed logic of all time.
Troll alert! Your take is so utterly ridiculous that you can’t be engaging in discourse in good faith. Ignored.
Touch grass has never been a more appropriate response. Wow.
Don’t pay attention to him. He literally said earlier that he wishes Apple would make the iPhone out of plastic.
Nothing cheap at all about it. If they didn’t tell you it was aluminum I’m betting most of you wouldn’t know. I thought last years sharp edges were terrible. As was it getting hot as hell. I see no difference at all in the color. But i don’t doubt some here will bitch about the phone. They always do.
