10 January 2017
Apple will thus abandon the aluminum alloys it's been using for its smartphones in the past few years.

    So they are coming back to Steve Jobs's genius design of boxy glass and stainless steel. Very good move, the design of 6-7 is much worse. The design of iphone 4 made them who they are, the first really hight quality build smartphone ever, years ahead of the plastic android phones.

                          AnonD-39337, 11 Jan 2017What's the difference between aluminum and stainless steel ... morealuminum is considered soft metal(prone to scratch and dent),good heat conductor thats why phones made with aluminum heat easily while stainless is sturdy and low thermal conductivity.

                                    So, step back to iPhone 4/4S from well-done all-metal construction? I know they want to bring something fresh and follow the main competition (especially Galaxy S), but i'll never understand premium glass phones, which may soon leave their premium feel after holding a first meeting with the floor.
