A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

On one hand: Cool, titanium is strong and light weight!

On the other hand: Titanium can be brittle and Apple knows this from experience.

TLDR; no one will notice a darn bit of difference, stainless steel is probably cheaper and stronger in the ways that matter for a ~6” phone with glass panels that will break before either of those materials, and really how does it make any usability upgrades in any meaningful way?
