A few days ago, according to the news disclosed by Tianfeng Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo (Ming-Chi Kuo), due to technical problems that could not be overcome before mass production, the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max will abandon the new solid-state button design. Also because the iPhone 15 Pro is still in the EVT development stage, there is still time to change the design. Ming-Chi Kuo also believes that Apple’s cancellation of solid-state buttons and restoration of physical buttons will simplify the development and testing process.

It can be seen that although the brand-new solid-state button design is not adopted, after returning to the traditional physical button design, the button design has been slightly changed. It is changed to a long-shaped volume button, which closely connects the volume plus and minus keys together, instead of the current one. The iPhone has a spaced design between the two volume keys. In addition, although it is changed back to the physical volume key, the mute switch still seems to be a brand new multi-function key, which is expected to support a variety of shortcut function settings, and is no longer limited to the mute switch.

Even though the news at this stage is that the solid-state button will be canceled, according to Unknown21, it has been confirmed that the solid-state button design was still in development until recently, and it may not be canceled at all.
