Twitter account ShrimpApple Pro shared an insider about the iPhone 15. According to him, the new generation of smartphones from Apple will receive very unusual cases in terms of shape and materials.
So, the iPhone 15 will not have flat edges of the case, but a lid with rounded edges. A similar solution was available for the budget iPhone 5c, which was released in 2013 and had a plastic case. But this time the back panel will be made of titanium.
Apple has been thinking about titanium cases for MacBooks, iPhones and iPads for five years now. It was in 2017 that the company filed the relevant patents. Compared to stainless steel alloy, titanium is more durable and better resists scratches and other similar mechanical damage.
The glossy surface of titanium will be achieved through a sandblasting technique using dynamic chemical processes. In addition, Apple can apply a thin oxide layer that will prevent fingerprints from forming on the case.
According to unofficial data, the company will present the iPhone 15 next fall. Apple has not yet commented on these rumors.
