We're getting close to that time of year when everything online is about the next iPhone. Even though we don't expect to see the new model until September, the rumors are flying.
The latest iPhone 16 Pro rumor suggests that Apple will make some changes to the titanium found on the iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max that will make them look much better than iPhone 15 Pro devices. Instead of their current look, Apple could go with a smoother, glossier finish that would give these new phones a polished look instead of a brushed one. This would make the iPhone 16 Pro models look more like the stainless steel devices of the past but with the added durability and scratch resistance of titanium.
The rumor follows one suggesting that the iPhone 16 Pro models could get different color options than last year.
It's worth noting that yeux1122 didn't cite a particular source, so this rumor absolutely needs to be taken with a massive grain of salt. It would be logical for Apple to offer some improvements to the titanium's finish to help improve the overall look and feel of the high-end phone. Still, it remains to be seen if the company is able to pull it off for 2024's phone or if it's something that'll come to later models.
