iPhone 15 Pro Max Is this legit? The titanium breaks easily???

wasnt the titanium, was the glass. Im wondering maybe if its too rigid and because the frame wouldnt give at all, all the stress was on the glass instead. Just a theory
Do you often bend your phone like that so hard that your hands are trembling? If so, I'd be worried.
I don't though.

titanium by nature scuff easily due to hardness level is low compare to others however tensile strength is better . And titanium is not really conductive hence why apple bond with a conductive materiel.
This is why it’s a great materiel for hard use tool . I have a few pocket knife ( folders ) with grade 5 ti handle and the finish is mostly stonewash( to hide the scratches) and it doest not flex which is why it has poor shock /impact absorption in 15 pro max case wont be surprise the impact of those test is being transfer to the weakest point of the device which is the glass
While it adds a wow factor when it applies to a product say iphone but of course it has it cons and pros same like every materiels.

Take a look at the other 50 threads about this non-issue…
50 is underrated , how about 100 lol
yeah my iphone 14 pm holds up pretty well as a daily driver , while Ti is cool and such not sure is it a ideal materiel for a phone , but then again apple being apple lol
Apparently his name is not Jerry.Jerry would scratch the Eiffel Tower, if he could!
You're Good, Diz
I referred to him as such in another thread and got internet roasted.
🤣 🥲
Imagine, dropping your .33 inch double sided glass phone will break it, who would have thought. This is why I am not a fan of crazy destructive test videos.
I get why he destroys it. 7 Million views = $$$ But it's hard to watch.
I've broken mine already. Dropped it from about 3 feet (and not on purpose). No case.
Back shattered.
Back shattered.
Yuck. Ya clearly the back glass is way weaker on the 15. They have the Ceramic Shield technology, not sure why they don’t put it on the back as well. The front glass survived in all the tests way longer.
Yikes 3 feet? Sorry about that. I go caseless and need to be careful then, and also get a case for work
Yeah this year model no doubt had a weaker back glass compare to the 14 series, the moment when apple announce that 15 back panel is more modular and they announce that replacement is cheaper for the 15 is basically telling us to that the hint that rear glass is weaker.
from my pov apple knew what they were getting into its like saying “hey u wan us make it easy for repair, this is what happen if we make it easy to repair, but we make it cheaper for the replacement”. I dont think its a bad product but rather i think its all jus capitalism its the same with other major tech company. “ there is always a catch “

Can’t tell you how many times I’ve dropped an iPhone 12 mini. Probably 20 times by now. No issues. This is the standard all iPhones should strive for.
I wouldn’t say it breaks easily but my guess is that the new replaceable back has made the structure just a bit more fragile.
Boo hoo, if you break an iPhone, it breaks 😂 I wish I was so good to make money out of many million views just by breaking stuff. I have to say I'm a bit jealous. Also I don't think I've ever seen a video going viral so fast about a non-issue.
