Ming-Chi Kuo, a well-known Apple analyst, has unveiled on his twitter account that technical issues will prevent the iPhone 15 Pro from featuring solid-state buttons. In a recent report, Kuo stated that the technology for these buttons, which would offer haptic feedback, is not yet ready for mass production.
Apple had reportedly planned to replace the mechanical buttons on the iPhone 15 Pro with solid-state ones, but the company is facing challenges during the development process. Kuo explained that the new buttons require a more complex manufacturing process that could increase production costs.
The current iPhone models have mechanical buttons for volume, power, and other functions. Solid-state buttons would have provided a more tactile and responsive user experience, as well as potentially improving device durability. However, it seems that Apple will have to delay this upgrade until the technical issues are resolved.
Despite the setback with the solid-state buttons, the iPhone 15 Pro is still likely to offer several exciting new updates, including a faster processor and improved camera technology.
Apple plans to release the device later this year, and fans worldwide are eagerly anticipating its arrival.
