According to DigiTimes, Apple is considering using titanium alloy to make iPad shells, replacing the aluminum alloy shells on the current iPad. Last month, there were rumors that the 2022 iPhone would also use titanium alloy materials.
Recently, Apple has applied for many patents related to titanium alloy shells. In the future, devices that may use titanium alloys include MacBook, iPad and iPhone. Compared with stainless steel, titanium alloy is harder and more scratch-resistant.
However, the strength of titanium also makes it difficult to etch, so Apple has developed a sandblasting, etching and chemical process that can give the titanium casing a high-gloss finish, making it more attractive. Apple has also been studying the use of a thin oxide surface coating to address the problem of fingerprints.
In fact, there have been reports that Apple has begun preparing for the next generation of iPhone, which will be released in 2022. One of the highlights is that the body material is titanium alloy.
However, industry insiders said that Apple's usual practice is to test radical upgrades on the iPad first, and then move them to the iPhone if there are no problems, so this rule will not be easily changed.
