This year a major shakeup will appear in the iPhone design. Yesterday, we looked at the new wisor-style camera island for the iPhone 17 Air and the long version on the iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max (Vanilla models will use the old design, apparently). Apple may also change the materials used for four models and it is reportedly promoting them in wired charging speeds.
Apple iPhone 17 Air will replace this generation for plus. According to a report by Jeff Pu, analyst for GF Securities, it will have a titanium frame instead of aluminum (eg plus). Titanium is heavier and more expensive than aluminum, but it is strong, which is why apple may choose it – air is considered only 5.5 mm thick and can be very weak to oppose aluminum bending aluminum. .

Some time ago, another analyst, Ming-chi Kuo reported that the air will use a mixture of titanium and aluminum for its frame-the iPhone 15 Pro like something like a few than something than something. It can help keep the cost and weight low, while still adding enough strength to the frame.
For others, the iPhone 17, 17 Pro and 17 Pro Max will have aluminum frames, according to PU. This is a major change because the previous pro model used titanium (and before that stainless steel). Note that this report is disputed and some claim that professionals will stick to the titanium.
Here is a possible explanation to return to aluminum-it is more environmentally friendly than titanium and has a low carbon footprint. The iPhone 17 series can become Apple’s first carbon-plate smartphone (Apple wants to make all its products carbon-plated by 2030).

Apple never revealed the official charge rating for the iPhone 16 series, but the tests show that the phones are at the top around 30W. For 2025 generations, Apple allegedly wants to compete up to 35W for all four models.
This is a minor collision, but when it comes to the battery, cupertino has always been conservative. And even a small collision will be appreciated because the fastest charging between the flagship in the iPhone is – even Samsung and Google, who are equally conservative, receive 100% faster.
