Apple’s latest generation iPhone 15 series is up for purchase in the global markets. The demand for Pro models is also high leading to delayed deliveries across the world. However, the latest generation Pro phones are also marred by various issues. The iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max are suffering from overheating woes, failed durabilty test, and titanium discoloration. Now, the Cupertino-based tech giant has acknowledged one of the issues. 

Apple acknowledges discoloration issue on iPhone 15 Pro models

The iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max come with a titanium chassis. Several users took to the internet to highlight the discoloration and halo effect on the titanium frame of both devices. Apple has officially confirmed that the iPhone 15 Pro models without a case may discolor the titanium frame but only temporarily. This is caused by the oil from the user’s skin. 

The Cupertino-based tech giant has updated its ‘Cleaning your iPhone’ support document on its official website. It includes instructions on how to clean, disinfect, and maintain the original look of the iPhone. Apple states that ‘the oil from your skin might temporarily alter the color of the outside band’ The company recommends users to wipe the frame with a soft, damp, and lint-free cloth to resotre the iPhone’s look. The device should also be cleaned immediately if it comes in contact with anything that causes stains or other damage. 

For those unaware, Apple sells a premium polishing cloth on its website. It is now compatible with the iPhone 15 series. The polishing cloth features a soft, non-abrasive material to eliminate discoloration. Additionally, it’s worth recommending iPhone 15 Pro users to avail a protective case for any discoloration issues as the device would be regularly exposed to the natural oil of the skin.
