iPhone 15 Pro Leak: Action button revolutionizes operation Apfelpatient

Apple's upcoming iPhone 15 Pro is expected to feature some notable changes to the case. According to a new leak, the traditional mute switch will be replaced with a customizable action button, similar to the action button on the Apple Watch Ultra. The source of the leak, @MajinBuOfficial, has posted images of cases that hint at the replacement of the mute switch with the new button.

With the iPhone 15 Pro set to be released in the coming weeks, more and more rumors and leaks are emerging. One of the most notable leaks concerns the new device's chassis, which seems to offer an exciting new feature: the traditional mute button will be replaced by a versatile action button. This move could provide the iPhone 15 Pro with a number of new features and capabilities that could further improve the user experience.

Leak: Action button replaces mute switch in iPhone 15 Pro

The recent published Leaks from @MajinBuOfficial allegedly show iPhone 15 Pro cases with a third button to replace the old mute switch. This new button will work similarly to the action button on the Apple Watch Ultra, with different functions assignable. Although the exact name of the device is not yet known, the combination of a titanium frame and a customizable "action button" has already fueled speculation about a potentially more powerful "Ultra" model this year. The leaked iPhone 15 Pro cases, shown in dark green, black, and dark blue, offer further clues about the mute switch replacement. Instead of a cutout for the volume buttons, these cases feature a smaller button that will likely be the new action button. The source of the images has already published credible Apple accessory leaks in the past, which strengthens the reliability of the information.

Thanks to the action button: Easy access to functions

The expected functions of the new button on the iPhone 15 Pro are varied. In addition to mute, Apple will likely offer other options such as accessibility, shortcuts, camera, flashlight, focus, magnifying glass, translation and voice memos. For photographers in particular, the dedicated camera button could be particularly useful for launching the camera app quickly and easily. Previous models already offered a dedicated camera button in the form of the Smart Battery Case, but with the switch to MagSafe technology, this feature was removed. However, with the iPhone 15 Pro, this convenient feature could be reintroduced. It is expected that the action button will also be accessible in the iPhone's control center, which would further simplify the use of the device. With a simple click, the user can then access various functions without having to navigate through menus. (Photo by ApisornJr / Bigstockphoto)
