.. Yikes!
Apple has introduced titanium on their latest iPhone 15 Pro Max, a choice that brings both excitement and concerns. Titanium is renowned for its remarkable properties. It's biocompatible, used in medical applications like artificial joints and repairing bones, and it's tough enough for building interstellar spacecraft and robotic explorers. Personally, I have a ring made from titanium reclaimed from a wheelchair, showcasing its versatility. However, Apple's choice of titanium isn't without its quirks, as I discovered.
#### The Marvel of Titanium
Titanium comes in various grades, each with distinct characteristics. Grade 1 titanium is the cheapest and softest, making it easy to machine, which I initially assumed Apple would use for their iPhone. But Apple surprised us with Grade 5 titanium, car fix a much stronger and car fix more expensive variant.
