Don't worry, there's still a dedicated mute button.

’s Twitter feed. The latter is a noted leaker among the Apple blogs. The video shows a CAD design rendering of what we’ve already been hearing about the iPhone 15 Pro/Pro Max: that it will have solid-state buttons on the side rather than physical ones. They’ve been referred to as “taptic,” as they’ll offer some haptic feedback when the finger hits the area.

The renderings show a touch-friendly bar where the volume rocker usually sits on the left side of the iPhone. The mute button is also expected to go touch-only, although we’re not 100% sure based on the renderings, with the ability to tap and press to turn the ringer on or off. The jury is out on whether that would be as satisfying as the physical flick of a switch or would feel more like theup until now have pointed to four different iPhone 15 models, with two denoted as the Pro and Pro Max and two referred to as the regular iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Max.

The screen will get removed from the 16, I've read.
