iPhone 15 leak suggests Apple's next device will have a 'game-changing' design ... trends now
Many of us are guilty of dropping our phones more than we should, but the latest iPhone 15 rumours suggest you can worry a little less in the future.
Patently Apple claims the iPhone 15 Pro will be built from a resilient titanium alloy - switching out its previous stainless steel frame.
While titanium rivals steel in strength, it can be up to 45 per cent lighter, which could make the iPhone 15 Pro model far easier to carry, but with a similar resilience.
Titanium can handle higher temperatures better than steel too, while also offering a similar level of protection against water damage.
On the downside, however, titanium is a more costly material than stainless steel which could bump up the price of the iPhone 15 Pro.

The latest rumours align with previous rumours put forward by Apple analyst Jeff Pu, who said the new model could be more expensive than previous Pro models.
While he didn't reveal specific costs, it's worth noting that last year's iPhone 14 Pro and Pro Max started at £1,099/$999 and £1,199/$1,099, respectively.
If the rumours are proven true, it would be the second occasion that Apple has incorporated titanium into its designs.
The Apple Watch Ultra, costing £849/$799, also has a titanium case, which 'strikes the perfect balance of weight, durability and corrosion resistance', according to Apple.
Titanium could even be used in future MacBooks and iPad designs, Patently Apple suggests, pointing to what appears to be leaked products drawings.
Even still, this has not been publicly confirmed by Apple, and MailOnline has approached the firm for comment.
The alleged leak comes amid numerous other rumours about the anticipated iPhone 15 and what features it might have.
