iPhone 16, yet another new button? (photo)

The iPhone 16s for the fall of 2024 should benefit from a new button - one more after the Action button on the iPhone 15 - dedicated to capturing images.

The Phone Arena site has produced 3D renderings of the future iPhone 16 range (photos below), based on the latest rumors, including the addition of a new button.

Action button on iPhone 16 to quickly capture photos and videos?

Apparently called the “capture button” internally at Apple, this additional button would be located under the power button (right edge of the iPhone) and would serve as a shortcut to quickly capture photos and videos. Note that it would not be a physical button, but a tactile surface, of the type that was anticipated for the volume buttons of the iPhone 15, but which would ultimately have been canceled.

The Action button should be improved, also adopting this pressure detection surface technology, which rumors compare to the old Touch ID button. Perhaps the return of fingerprint recognition on iPhone?
