    "Apple is way behind when it comes to fast charging, especially
    compared to some of the outrageous charging speeds available
    on some phones made by Chinese firms such as Xiaomi, Vivo & Realme."

    "Starting with the iPhone 14 series in 2022, new model iPhone
    units sold in the U.S. are not equipped with a physical SIM tray."

    "The Chinese version of the steel battery case differs from
    the U.S. version because of its ability to host a SIM tray."

    "The U.S. version of the stainless steel battery case is also wider."

    "Majin Bu notes how the battery case in both variations comes with
    a welded edge, and Apple will use new adhesives to make replacing
    the battery easier. The"leakster" also believes that the steel case
    indicates that the new iPhone 17 Pro models will have a better grip
    on thermal management for charging at faster speeds.
