IT Home reported on June 12 that blogger @刹那数码 posted that supply chain insiders hinted to him that the iPhone 16 Pro series may be capacitive buttons.

He previously broke the news that the iPhone 16 Pro will cut off all physical buttons, while the position of the existing buttons remains the same, still convex, reducing the bezel opening, and the way to shut down is still the power button + volume key combination.

The blogger also said that the experience after removing the physical buttons is similar to Apple's Apple Pencil Pro (IT home note: Apple Pencil Pro supports "pinching" the pressure sensitivity (squeezing the pen body) to bring up the gadget).

According to a previous report by IT House, Taiwan media said that ASE Investment Control won an order from Apple and exclusively obtained a large order for Apple's new design this year for both sides of the new fuselage of the iPhone 16 series to replace the existing physical buttons, which also confirmed this revelation.

Apple has been working hard to get rid of all physical buttons, and since the iPhone 7, Apple has replaced the traditional home button with a capacitive component, which is simulated by the motor vibration when the user "presses" the capacitive home button.
