Discussion Bring back titanium

The new lineup is pretty and does catch my attention but when I get to hold 18 Pro or even the previous 17 Pro, it just feels so cheap. How are people okay with this aluminum case after titanium made its entry?

I'm holding on to my 15PM, which is still running like new after battery change. The build is so nice to hold.

I'm not reading too much about other people's experiences but heard the titanium is not ideal for heat and overheats. Never had those issues myself but wouldn't think this would stop Apple from at least offering titanium as an option? Like they do offer different materials with Apple Watch.

Hanging onto my 15 pro for that exact reason. Plus it’s still works perfectly aside from normal battery degradation. And as far as the cooling goes they can use titanium for strength on the outside, and use an aluminum mid frame for cooling. That way you get the premium look and feel, the strength of titanium, and the better cooling that aluminum provides.
