The new iPhone 17 Pro aluminum body may be more prone to scuffs and scratches

9to5mac.com Benjamin Mayo 2025-09-22 01:58:54

It’s iPhone 17 release day, and that means the internet is ready to start the next drama about the redesigned phones. One early concern is about the superficial durability of the iPhone 17 Pro aluminum chassis, especially on the darker color Deep Blue model. If this worries you, it’s a good time to buy a case. Because anodized aluminum still has the raw silver metal color underneath, any light nicks or scratches are much more visible to the eye, compared to similar wear and tear to the iPhone 1

Apple's iPhone 17 is now available on store shelves, along with the super skinny iPhone Air and the powerful iPhone 17 Pro and 17 Pro Max.

When Apple announced the iPhone 17, iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone Air earlier this month, it touted improved battery life across the board and "all-day" battery for the iPhone Air, which has a physically smaller battery to fit inside its thin design.

EVs Have Gotten Too Powerful

wired.com Jason Barlow 2025-09-22 19:00:00

Mass is still the enemy here, and EVs typically have lots of it. Factor in bigger brakes and wheels, and the result is an increase in unsprung mass. That puts the springs and dampers under more pressure, which results in an increased amount of energy that needs to be managed, and unwanted oscillations when a car hits a pothole, for example. A car also wants to pivot around what’s known as the center of yaw. If you can locate as much mass as possible close to that point, then the car will rotate
