Images of the initial prototype and the latest prototype

Already reportediPhone16Similar to the final design, the action button of the iPhone 16 Pro series appears to have been modified from the large one considered in the prototype (image above) to the same size as the one already installed in the iPhone 15 Pro series (image below).

According to MacRumors this change could be due to the abandonment of pressure-sensitive buttons. MacRumors published the same image eight days ago, and the only new information is that there was a prototype with a large action button.

The following design combinations were considered in the prototype.

Although the biggest changes were considered from point 1 to 2 below, they were gradually abandoned, and eventually, the differences with the iPhone 15 Pro series became smaller.

  • Built-in volume up/down button and action button same size as iPhone 15 Pro
  • Newly equipped with built-in volume up/down buttons, large action button and capture button
  • A volume button with the same design as the iPhone 15 Pro with separate buttons for up and down and a new capture button on the large action button.
  • A volume button with the same design as the iPhone 15 Pro with separate buttons for up and down, and a new capture button with an action that’s about the same size as the iPhone 15 Pro.
  • If this final design is true, the only change to the iPhone 16 Pro series in terms of operability is the inclusion of a capture button.

    It’s been pointed out that the capture button is just a shutter button (and a recording start button), but can’t you assign it a user-preferred function like the action button?

    Are you considering switching models based on your assessment of the larger display size?

    No matter what rumors you look at, the main changes in the iPhone 16 Pro series are that the number of pixels in the ultra-wide-angle camera has increased to 48 million pixels, and all Pro series models come with a 5x telephoto lens. The highlight seems to be the Expanding the size of the display.
