9to5Mac • • technology
Key Points:
- The iPhone 18 Pro will continue using the aluminum alloy casing introduced with the iPhone 17 Pro, retaining similar benefits and drawbacks.
- The aluminum alloy offers excellent heat dissipation and durability but is more prone to scuffs and scratches compared to the previous titanium models.
- Some marks on iPhone 17 Pro demo units were due to material transfer from worn MagSafe stands in stores, which can be cleaned off and are not actual scratches.
- The camera plateau edges on the iPhone 17 Pro are particularly vulnerable to scratches, considered normal wear and tear by Apple.
- The upcoming iPhone 18 Pro models are expected to be available in four colors and will exhibit similar durability characteristics as the iPhone 17 Pro.
