On Tuesday, Apple unveiled the latest iPhone 17 series at its "Aww Dropping" event. On this occasion, the new iPhone Air model and AirPods 3 of iPhone, as well as Apple Watch 11, Watch 3 Ultra, and Watch SE 2 were introduced. One thing that caught everyone's attention in this event was that Apple had introduced both its Pro model iPhones, i.e., iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max, in an aluminum unibody. Such a question arises as to why Apple turned away from a titanium body in two years. You might be thinking that the main reason behind this would be Apple's benefit, but in reality, the matter is the opposite. Apple's choice of aluminum for its Pro model iPhones benefits you more than Apple does. Know how?
Improvement in heat dissipation
Apple has taken a big step towards solving the heat problem of the iPhone by choosing aluminum instead of titanium. Let us tell you that aluminum is a better heat conductor than titanium. This means that the heat generated from the processor, battery, or other chips inside the device is quickly released through the aluminum body. This does not make the device too hot, and the performance also remains stable. Titanium is strong, but its thermal conductivity is low, so it is not able to release heat quickly.
Better color option
You must have noticed in Apple's event that this time, Apple has launched a special copper orange color variant in the Pro models. The biggest reason behind being able to do this is the use of aluminum. Actually, the anodizing process can be done easily on the surface of aluminum, with which different shades and matte finishes can be created. This type of finishing on titanium is difficult and expensive, so its color options are limited. Apart from this, aluminum is light and its surface holds dye, i.e., color well, due to which bright, unique, and premium-looking colors can be created. This is the reason why Apple can provide more variety, such as pastel, dark, or metallic shades, by using aluminum.
To make the phone lighter
You already know that Apple's Pro models are quite heavy. Apple has also chosen aluminum to keep the weight of the phone under control. Along with being light, it also helps in heat management, which makes the device feel light and cool during long use.
For the biggest battery
Apple has left titanium and returned to aluminum because, due to being light in weight, the size of the battery can be increased while keeping the weight of the phone low. This is the reason why the iPhone 17 Pro Max has been given the largest battery of iPhone to date. Apart from this, an aluminum unibody has been used in this phone. Due to this, the size of the battery in the phone could be increased. In such a situation, Apple's move from titanium to aluminum for lightness, better color options, heat management and bigger battery has proved beneficial for you in the end.
