Saw these on twitter. Looks like the titanium still attracts a ton of fingerprints. Not a huge deal but I did think the brushed metal might prevent them. Oh well.

BREAKING NEWS: If you let thousands of people touch your phone in a period of an hour YOUR PHONE WILL LOOK LIKE THE OP'S POST!

(sarcasm off: this is literally natural oil from fingers and likely an exaggeration because hundreds of people were touching the phone, what you are seeing here is likely the worst case scenario).

More likely dirt, lotion, food left over.
 
Titanium is not harder than stainless. My Breitling is titanium and it scuffs and gets its own wear on it but titanium “heals” in its own way

Looks like the display glass is uneven as well. Hopefully the quality control from India will be up to par, otherwise there will be a lot of returned iPhones. I’m not upgrading at this time… maybe by March

Maybe just go for the iPhone 16 Pro Max, since the iPhone 15 Pro Max is a 1st gen Tit product. For the iPhone 16 Pro Max, they might have the uneven display glass better on control.
