iPhone 16 CAD-based renders
- The iPhone 16 CAD-based renders, shared by tipster Majin Bu show the phone will have a redesigned camera module, where the sensors will be placed vertically similar to the original iPhone X.
- This will replace the current diagonal one.
- The iPhone will continue to have a boxy chassis and rounded edges for better grip on hands.
- The main highlight of the redesign also includes new buttons, including the new Action button and the rumoured Capture button.
- The dedicated Capture button placed below the power button will act as a shortcut to capturing videos. While the Action button is similar to the one on the iPhone 15 Pro series.
- The Capture button could be pressure sensitive and might also allow users to adjust focus and zoom in and out.
- The new Action switch will replace the Mute button found on previous gen vanilla models. This can be used to do tasks like turn on the flashlight, open the camera or pair with the shortcuts app.
