Apple to Simplify iPhone 18 Camera Control Button Design
According to a report cited by MacRumors, Apple plans to simplify the Camera Control button on the next year's iPhone 18.
The current button, introduced with the iPhone 17 lineup, combines capacitive and pressure sensors beneath a sapphire crystal surface, allowing for taps, presses, and swipes to control the camera.
A leaker known as Instant Digital claims Apple will drop the capacitive sensing layer, relying solely on pressure recognition to achieve the same range of Camera Control functions.
This change aims to reduce manufacturing costs by removing one of the sensing layers.
