Apple’s long-awaited iPhone 15 Pro caused quite a stir this year thanks to its innovative use of titanium alloy materials and significantly reduced weight compared to previous models. However, this leap in design comes with its own quirks, which mainly have to do with fingerprint smudges and fading over time. Apple has not only acknowledged this issue but also offered a solution that will keep your device looking pristine.

In a recent support document update, Apple openly acknowledged that fingerprints “may temporarily change the color of the titanium frame on iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max.” Fortunately, there is no need to panic because this is not a permanent problem. Apple assures users that these stains can be easily erased and restore the original appearance of the device.

“For iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max, oil from your skin may temporarily discolor the outer band. Wiping your iPhone with a soft, slightly damp, lint-free cloth will restore its original appearance,” Apple recommends.

This discovery dates back to the early days of the iPhone 5 series, where users also encountered problems with fading of the device’s body and paint loss. Apple’s journey in product versions seems to be marked not only by innovation, but also by respect for the past.

Additionally, Apple offered some proactive tips to keep your iPhone 15 Pro looking its best. If your device comes into contact with substances that may cause stains or damage, such as dirt, ink, make-up, soap, detergent, acidic food or lotion, it is important to clean it immediately.

iPhone 15 Pro is a testament to Apple’s commitment to pushing the boundaries of design and technology. Despite its quirks, the company’s dedication to solving user problems ensures that your high-end device remains as sleek and stylish as the day you unboxed it. With Apple’s guidance, users can embrace the future with confidence while preserving the charm of the past.
