Apple's 3rd Patent Application for Future MacBooks and iDevices using a Titan Base and a Polymer or Glass Cover was Published last week
Apple's R&D regarding the possible use of titanium for future Apple devices, with a particular focus on a MacBook, began back in April 2015 with a provisional patent. We covered this patent once it became a full patent application in April 2017 in a report titled "Apple explores the use of Titanium, Titanium Alloys and Hybrid Plastics for Future Devices." In March 2018 we posted a second patent on this subject matter titled "Apple Inventions cover Devices that may use Titanium, Chemically Resistant Compounds & Protective Enzymes." Apple won their first granted patent related to the use of titanium in a MacBook in June 2020.
