In addition, Kuo reveals that Apple has also suffered production issues with the iPhone 15 range’s displays and batteries, with the latter “expanding when exposed to heat” — a concerning problem that the analyst believes has now been solved.
It is a shock to see such an extensive array of challenges this late in the iPhone’s production schedule, and some cautious upgraders may prefer to wait to ensure they don’t run into any hardware issues with the first iPhone 15 models off the line.
Speaking to me, Dickson confirmed that the iPhone 15 Pro Max in the video is a dummy model but that the design is spot on. Dickson has a long and consistently accurate track record, so anyone still attached to the physical mute button now needs to come to terms with its inevitable removal or buy an iPhone 15 or iPhone 15 Plus, where it will last one more generation.
Replacing the mute switch, which has featured in every previous iPhone, the button will be exclusive to Pro models. It is solid-state, meaning it won’t physically move, instead sending vibration feedback . This should increase durability and water resistance. The button will also be programmable, with code in iOS 17 beta releases revealing an array of options: Accessibility, Shortcuts, Silent Mode, Camera, Flashlight, Focus, Magnifier, Translate and Voice Memos. It’s currently unclear whether it will support more than one function through multiple presses or gestures.
