A pair of reports claimed last month that the iPhone 17 series will feature aluminum frames across the board. First, Jeff Pu mentioned this strange design change. Then, an even more reliable source, The Information, reported the same tidbit.
The latter claimed that Apple will give the iPhone 17 Pro a big redesign when it comes to the rear camera. The top half of the phone will be made of aluminum, which will include a new rectangular camera bump made of aluminum. The bottom part will still be made of glass, so MagSafe wireless charging continues to work as intended.
But now we have a somewhat reliable Apple insider from China claiming that Apple will continue to use titanium for the iPhone 17 Pros coming next year. This contradicts the previous reports, but I have a different idea. I think both of them might be right, and the answer is staring us in the face.
