Solid-State Buttons

In the months leading up to the launch of the iPhone 15, there were several rumors that Apple was planning to get rid of physical buttons on the iPhone. Instead, it would reportedly switch to solid-state buttons, which send a haptic response when you press them so you “feel” like you touch an actual button.

This technology was supposed to make its debut with the iPhone 15, which, of course, didn’t happen, but we’re hoping to see it on the iPhone 16.

Unfortunately, rumors aren’t as hopeful, but nothing is certain. Some rumors say there’s a low chance for the iPhone 16 to feature solid-state buttons, while others say that it’s entirely possible. So we’ll have to wait and see what happens.
