Due to the use of titanium cases, the Pro versions of Apple smartphones in 2023 will be tens of grams lighter than the iPhone 14 Pro and Pro Max. In this respect informs The Notebookcheck edition refers to the data of an insider who appears on social networks under the pseudonym Revegnus.
According to Revegnus, the iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max (Ultra) models will weigh 191 grams and 221 grams, respectively. For comparison: The iPhone 14 Pro and Pro Max, whose bezels are made of stainless steel, weigh 206 grams and 240 grams, respectively.
Notebookcheck writes that the use of stainless steel gives last year’s devices a premium feel, but makes them less comfortable to use due to their weight. The publication emphasized that the iPhone 14 Pro Max is only 13 grams lighter than the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5 foldable smartphone.
Reporters also noted that Apple already uses “aviation-grade” titanium in its Ultra series watches. The advantages of this material are increased strength and resistance to corrosion. At the same time, the disadvantage of titanium is its high cost.
Smartphones belonging to the iPhone 15 series are expected to be introduced in early September 2023.
