Design Changes for iPhone 16 Pro Volume Buttons
Apple considered four different button configurations for the iPhone 16 Pro, including unified volume buttons with a small action button and a new capture button, separate volume buttons with a large action button and a capture button, and more.The current approach, as per leaked information, involves separate volume buttons with a small action button and a capture button.
Mac Rumors reported that these physical buttons may incorporate haptic functionality in the new capture button.The proposed design shift away from haptic volume buttons seems practical, as issues with traditional buttons are rare.
Guess the last thing that its cat tells us is when a comes to the volume buttons.
