The iPhone 16 could come with a new camera button, another report claims


Perfect for horizontal video.

According to the publication’s sources, the button could be located on the lower right side of the device, placing it under your index finger when taking photos and videos in landscape. But while MacRumors reported that the button would be capacitive, and therefore simulate a press with a vibration, The Information says it’ll be mechanical like a traditional button, but with extra capacitive features that make it both touch- and pressure-sensitive, allowing users to swipe left and right to control the camera’s zoom, or lightly pressed to set focus on a subject. Both The Information and MacRumors report the button is being tested for inclusion across the entire iPhone 16 lineup, including both regular and Pro models.
