A new report suggests we should see the first iPhone with a titanium chassis next year, and the high-end material is expected to be used in at least one Pro model.

JPMorgan Chase said the iPhone 14 Pro is made of titanium alloy while other models are made of stainless steel or aluminum.

According to the latest JPMorgan Chase report, Apple will launch the iPhone 14 series in the second half of 2022 with a larger specification upgrade than the iPhone 13 series.

The iPhone 14 Pro case is said to be made of titanium alloy and is exclusively supplied by Foxconn.

In addition, all other models in the iPhone 14 series use aluminum alloy and stainless steel frame.

The stainless steel frame is supplied by Foxconn and Jably. Lens and Luxshare Precision apply for certification. The aluminum frame is provided by Lens and Jably.

A typical titanium alloy mixes the material with vanadium, chromium, nickel and aluminium. The material is three to four times stronger than stainless steel, so less metal can be used, making the phone lighter.

Titanium has a matte appearance. But the company received a patent earlier this year to give the metal a semi-gloss finish.

This patent is a technical patent intended to achieve the desired appearance. Apple said the process is better at masking metallic defects while providing better protection.

The iPhone's titanium case isn't surprising either, because Apple uses this material for the current Apple Watch rather than the ceramic (and formerly pure gold) case that came with it.

There are several phone programming reports for the coming year. Renowned analyst Ming-Chi Kuo said in March that the biggest visual change would be the company's move from Liu Haiping to developing perforated screens.

If Apple wants to keep this feature, that could also mean moving things like the Face ID sensors to thinner bezels. This also applies to the Touch ID functionality built into the bottom of the screen, but it can be replaced.

Others think 2022 will be the year Apple moves to a completely barrierless design. It removes the Lightning port and instead relies on MagSafe for charging.
