Apple is using aluminum and/or stainless steel alloys for ipad Casing for a long time. This may change as the tech giant plans to bring in a tougher, stronger material, which will be titanium-based, to enhance the durability of its tablets. According to a report by GizChina, Apple may be looking to use a titanium-based alloy for the next-generation iPad casing, with the iPad Pro reportedly left out of the project due to its support for wireless charging.
a titanium alloy It is said to be tougher and scratch resistant than stainless steel and aluminum. For now, the inclusion of the new alloy is only expected with the next-generation iPad, and if such a development happens, the price of the already priced tablet will go up. It remains to be seen whether Apple also changes the casing with the entry-level iPad and doesn’t increase the price too much as that would make it more expensive and, therefore, could lead to lower sales numbers.
Apple is already using titanium on the casing material apple watch (also making it the most expensive Apple Watch) and Apple Card. The company is seriously looking at expanding the use of titanium alloy to its other devices, it is evident from the number of patents applied for the same. And the new alloy could very well replace the old one on future MacBooks and even iPhones. For iPhoneThe titanium alloy can only be used on the mid frame for now, leaving the rear glass back undisturbed to facilitate wireless charging.
