Rumors about the new line continue to spread iPhone 16 smartphones may be equipped with an additional button, as Macrumors writes. In addition, Apple is also planning to move the mmWave antenna away from the left side of the smartphone to accommodate this change. The iPhone 16 Pro's "action button" is expected to be flush with the device as Apple is expected to switch to solid-state technology and ditch the current design. While the action button is expected to change, the volume keys and power keys will remain the same without any changes. These buttons are not currently solid state, although Apple's plans may change. iPhone 16 may get an additional button, and the action button will become solid-state [caption id="attachment_77874" align="aligncenter" width="780"] iPhone 16[/caption] The purpose of the additional button, which sources call the “capture button,” is still unknown. It is expected to be located under the power button on the right side of the device and will be capacitive. Macrumors claims that the new button will be introduced on all iPhone 16 models, including the base iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus models.

Before this, prices were reduced by third-party stores Due to increasing competition, Apple has officially announced the first price reduction for the flagship line of iPhone 15 smartphones. Let us remember that sales began at the end of September. Since the release of the iPhone 15, prices have been reduced several times in third-party stores, but this is the first time that the price of the iPhone 15 has been reduced in the official store. Starting October 29, Apple's flagship store on JD.com is offering $110 off iPhone 15 purchases, with a maximum discount of $82 on iPhone 15 Pro purchases.

The lowest starting price of the standard version of the iPhone 15 with 128 GB of flash memory in unofficial stores dropped to $710, which is almost $150 less than Apple. The latest research indicates that weak demand in the Chinese market will impact Apple's earnings in the first quarter of 2024, with iPhone 15 sales declining.
