While it is true when comparing a single material (e.g. 17-4 SS) that the harder temper (H900) is almost always more brittle than the softer temper (H1150), it is not true that a harder material is always more brittle than a softer one. Sapphire is incredibly tough for how hard it is. Chalk (CaCO3) is both softer and more brittle than your typical silicate rock.

              No worries, as the next software update will sure fix the back screen "unstability" 😂

                Why does the glass shatter on the titanium model but not the aluminum? Is it because titanium is harder than aluminum and so the glass has to absorb the energy instead? I never took physics

                                justasmile, 28 Sep 2023While it is 60hz, apple's interface is extremely smoot... moreSo clueless with people who say 60Hz on iPhone/iPad is already smooth and 120Hz or ProMotion is gimmick.

                                S23+ with OneUI 5.1 clearly better than my iPad Mini 6 with its 60Hz. Even ppl say OneUI is jittery, 120Hz offsets the jitteriness.
                                Constantly changing between them and a 14 Pro makes 60Hz feels more sluggish. Even i dont want to turn on power saving mode in 14 Pro/S23+ because it make the phone feels sluggish 🫠

                                  It's not the first iPhone this is happening to. The iPhone 6 failed catastrophically.

                                    It is like Normal Glass vs Saffire Crystal harder the material more fragile that it can break easily if pressed on its weak areas. Titanium is good for watches, but not good for mobiles. Already an Android Mobile that came in Titanium few years back (One of the Google founder designed it)
