Apple, the iPhone 17 event organized on September 9, the iPhone Air was revealed. The company did not waste time to raise the robustness of the iPhone Air. After the event, Apple executives Greg Joswiak and John Ternus made important statements about the subtlety and durability of this model in an interview with Tom’s Guide.
The most striking part of the interview was Joswiak’s direct test. Journalist Mark Spoonauer extended an iPhone Air in his hand and asked him to try to bend. Spoonauer said he used all his power, but the device only yawned slightly. However, there was no break in the structure of the phone. This experiment clearly revealed the robustness of the device’s titanium frame.
iPhone Air passed the bending test with the titanium body
In the same interview, Lance Ulanoff from Techradar made a similar essay. He could not bend the phone and not only noticed the stretching movement. Joswiak emphasized that it is a planned feature to return to the original form of the device. In addition, thanks to this flexibility, the device gives confidence against the pressures that may occur in daily use. All these statements reinforced the perception of robustness of the iPhone Air.
The iPhone Air attracted attention with a 6.5 -inch screen, while the class 5 titanium frame was located in a different place in Apple’s product range. Because the iPhone 17 Pro series has switched to the aluminum body. Despite this, the preference of titanium in the Air model revealed the importance Apple attaches to this design. The company also announced that the frame can even overcome its own test standards. In addition to all these, this information was particularly meaningful for users who remembered the “Bendgate” period.
John Ternus said that many technologies have been combined in order to emerge such a thin phone. The ceramic shield rear surface came to the fore as one of the main elements that support the light structure of the device. In addition, Apple Silicon’s high efficiency has made this design possible. Ternus announced that almost all hardware is located in the interior design of the phone. Thus, the iPhone Air was shaped by the combination of material science and processor technology.
A new detail came up about the camera protrusion. Apple calls this protrusion for a long time “Plateau .. It was noteworthy that this term was not used in official promotions. Despite this, he showed how the language within the company directed the design approach. This statement was also an example of the technical jargo that Apple created for his own team.
In the interview, information about the iPhone 17 Pro models was also shared. Ternus said that aluminum was 20 times more efficient than titanium in heat conduction. This feature allowed the device to distribute the temperature more balanced. In addition, the lighter of the aluminum body also made a positive contribution to the battery capacity. In addition, anodized coating has brought new color options.
Apple’s “cosmic orange” color introduced in the Pro series came to the fore. For years, Pro users have demanded more vivid colors. Joswiak said that this new option was responding to those demands. In the meantime, the more vivid colors stand out in the product range, Apple’s importance to user expectations was an indication. But the company positioned these colors not only as aesthetics, but also as a means of creating a different identity.
The iphone Air’s titanium body and its flexible structure showed the balance of Apple in the design. Despite the subtlety, the device remained intact, the company has been careful in the selection of materials revealed how careful it was. Although the past models of the past came to the agenda with bending problems, the new Air model reversed this perception. Thus, Apple managed to bring together both elegance and durability in the same product.
New iPhone Air and iPhone 17 models will be opened to pre -order in Türkiye as of September 12 at 15.00. The official release date of the devices was determined as 19 September. Users will have the chance to experience new models after this date.
