โจ Apple's new iPhone 15 Pro Max is made of titanium, a biocompatible and versatile metal used for various purposes.
๐ฐ Titanium is expensive compared to other metals like aluminum, which is commonly used in smartphones.
๐ The grade of titanium used in the iPhone affects its price and properties, with higher grades being more expensive and harder.

๐ก Apple's new Titanium iPhone 15 Pro Max features a durable ceramic shield that scratches at a level 6, but appears fainter than usual.
๐ The front selfie camera is protected by the ceramic shield, and the earpiece is integrated into the frame, eliminating speaker grills.
๐ The titanium sides of the phone have a scratchable PVD coating, except for the 5G antenna slot. The power button and action button are also scratchable.
๐ป The iPhone 15 Pro Max has an actual USB 3 port with 10 gigabit transfer speeds, while the regular iPhone 15 only has USB 2.
โญ The iPhone 15 Pro Max features a matte back glass that is resistant to scratches, except for the Apple logo in the center.
๐ท Apple made significant changes to the camera system, including a 48MP main camera with a nano scale coating to reduce glare, a 12MP 5x tetraprism telephoto lens with 3D sensor shift OIS stabilizer, and a 12MP ultra-wide lens.
๐ The iPhone 15 Pro Max's cameras can generate spatial video by working together, similar to a feature that Android had 12 years ago.
๐ฑ The iPhone 15 Pro Max has a 6.7 inch OLED display with high brightness and refresh rate.
๐ฅ The new blended aluminum titanium structure compromised the structural integrity of the iPhone, particularly the back glass.
๐ฐ Replacing the back glass of the titanium iPhone 15 Pro Max costs $200.
๐ The Apple iPhone 15 Pro Max did not survive a durability test and was subjected to extreme heat.
๐ฅ The titanium frame of the iPhone changed colors when exposed to high temperatures, confirming the use of real titanium.
๐ Using a transparent case for the iPhone is risky, as it can turn yellow when exposed to sunlight.
๐ก Apple's new iPhone 15 Pro Max has structural deficiencies in its back glass.
๐ The normal-sized iPhone 15 Pro does not have the same structural deficiencies as the Max version.
๐จ The teardown of the iPhone 15 Pro Max will be more destructive than usual to examine the thinness and grade of Apple's titanium layer.
