iPhone 16 CAD-Based Render Reveals Vertical Camera Alignment, Presence Of A New Capture/Action Button،
The Cupertino-based tech giant is gearing up to launch its iPhone 16 series later this year. Like every time, rumors and reports about the phones in the range have been circulating online for some time now. The latest addition to the Vine is a CAD-based render that reveals the rear camera alignment and the presence of a new button on the right bezel. Let's take a deeper look and deduce more information from the leaked render.
Vertical camera module on iPhone 16 confirmed?
Known tipster Majin Bu shared an alleged CAD-based render of the alleged iPhone 16. In the post on X (formerly known as Twitter), we can see the pill-shaped cutout on the back panel, corroborating previous rumors about the iPhone 16. switch from a diagonally aligned camera setup to a vertically aligned setup, similar to the iPhone X but larger. Additionally, the new camera island is thinner than the iPhone 15 but slightly longer. The flash module is located to the right of the pill-shaped camera module.
The rendering also reveals the presence of an Action/Capture button
In addition to the camera module, the presence of an additional button on the right frame (left in the photo) is curious. This could be the Action or Capture button that reports have been hinting at for months. However, it's unclear whether the button will be touch-sensitive or pressure-sensitive. For those catching up, the action button on iPhone 15 Pro models performs tasks like opening the camera, turning on the flashlight, opening a shortcut, and more. We think an action button on the iPhone 16 could be a differentiator, especially with the base iPhone 15.
Besides the action button, the volume rockers and mute switch are on the left bezel (right in the image). The company branding is in its usual position in the center of the back panel. Additionally, the render also reveals the presence of eight antenna bands on the phone, two on each side. Finally, we can also see the USB-C opening at the bottom frame. However, that's how much information we can get from the render.
The iPhone 16 series could include five models
Apple's iPhone 16 is expected to be released in the second half of 2024. Recent reports suggest that the iPhone 16 series could include five different models, including the standard iPhone 16, iPhone 16 Pro, iPhone 16 Pro Max, and two new additions: iPhone 16. SE and iPhone 16 Plus SE. The latter two are expected to be the long-awaited SE model upgrades that didn't make it to the iPhone 15 or the iPhone 14 launch event.
