Apple's appearance has greatly changed. The supplier suggests that the iPhone 15 Pro will use solid touch volume and power button
Apple released the new iPhone 14 series this year, but soon after the release, people began to expect news about the iPhone 15 series, not only about configuration data, but also about the appearance. According to the disclosure, Apple's appearance will be greatly changed. The supplier suggested that the iPhone 15 Pro will use solid-state touch volume and power buttons, Then let me introduce the relevant content to you.
According to research company Barclays, Apple supplier Cirrus Logic may have vaguely implied that the iPhone 15 Pro model will use solid touch buttons next year
In a letter to shareholders this month, the Texas based semiconductor company said that it continued to "engage with a strategic customer" and expected to "launch a new HPMS component in smartphones next year". HPMS refers to the high-performance mixed signal chip of Cirrus Logic, including; iPhone Tactile driver of the Taptic Engine in the phone.
In the financial report conference call with analysts this month, John Forsyth, CEO of Cirrus Logic, narrowed the time frame for the listing of this new component to "the second half of next year", which will be launched in September next year; iPhone 15 Series models are consistent.
Blayne Curtis and Tom O'Malley, analysts of Barclays Bank, said in the investor's note last week that the new components mentioned by Cirrus Logic are likely to be part of the additional Tapetic Engine for the touch buttons on the iPhone 15 Pro model, "When studying potential use cases, the biggest change in the new iPhone model next year is the elimination of physical buttons, which will require additional drivers for the Tapetic Engine to make it the most possible new use case."
Guo Mingyong, a well-known Apple analyst, said in October that the iPhone 15 Pro would use solid state volume and power buttons. Guo Mingxuan said that these devices will be equipped with two additional Taptic Engine to provide tactile feedback to simulate the feeling of pressing keys without requiring them to move physically, similar to the recent; iPhone SE The Home button on the model or the Force Touch trackpad on a newer MacBook.
The touch buttons on the iPhone provide better water resistance and will eliminate the potential for wear or damage to moving parts over time. However, the standard iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus are still expected to use mechanical buttons.
It seems that the iPhone 15 series next year is still worth looking forward to, but for many users, they have been accustomed to Apple's precise knife method, and presumably there will be many differences between models, all of which will be known after the release.
