iPhone 16’s capture button will work like a camera

Just yesterday we told you about the future design of the iPhone 16 and how this design could receive references from the iPhone X, a seven-year-old device. However, the design will not be everything for this iPhone 16 but there will be new features that will define the differences compared to the iPhone 15. One of these differences will be the capture button, an additional button located in the sidebar with haptic technology and that the latest leaks suggest that It will work like a button on a camera: If we press halfway it will allow it to focus, and if we press it all the way it will take the photo.

Focus first, then capture: This will be the iPhone 16 capture button

He new capture button of the iPhone 16 is confirmed by leaps and bounds over time. Many analyzes and reports place this new capture button on the right side edge of the new iPhone 16. This location has an additional implication, namely that on iPhones with mmWave technology (some countries, including the United States), They will have to move this antenna to the left side since they currently occupy the right side. In the rest of the iPhone, as in the case of USA, there will be no changes because they do not have this antenna and the capture button will also be located on the right side.

The technology that this capture button will have seems to be that it will be haptic and will allow different actions to be performed depending on the treatment we give it. That is, if we slide to one side or the other, we can zoom in, for example. A new report published on the social network Weiboo by the user Instant Digital ensures that The capture button will work like the button we have on cameras. That is to say with a complete route with two stops. If you press lightly halfway, we will concentrate, if you press all the way to end the trip We will take the photo.

We will finally see in September if the iPhone 16 will have the capture button on all its models or if Apple will reserve it for the Pro model. The importance that Apple places on the Pro model and the camera concept in this model will increase.
