Apple once again rose to the top of the smartphone world with the introduction of its iPhone 16 series last month. While the company continues to sell its new series, it is also working on the iPhone 17, which is set to be introduced next year.
iPhone 17 to Feature a Multi-functional Button
Apple has recently made significant changes to the button design of iPhone models. The company added an Action button and a Camera Control button to the iPhone 16 series, which was well-received. Now, Apple is preparing for a new button in the upcoming model.
According to reliable sources like Majin Bu, Apple is working on a new design that will reduce the number of buttons. The iPhone 17 will feature a new button that incorporates multiple functions. However, the source did not provide details on the design or functionality of this button.
Meanwhile, a few details about the series, which will be introduced next year, have also surfaced. One of the major innovations will be on the display front. As is known, Apple still uses 60Hz refresh rate screens in the standard models of the iPhone 16 series.
However, this decision has been heavily criticized by the smartphone community. It seems that Apple is ready to change its stance. The company is preparing to use 120Hz ProMotion and Always-On displays across all models in the iPhone 17 series.
Additionally, it is rumored that the iPhone 17 series will be powered by the A19 Pro processor, built using the 2nm fabrication process. Reports indicate that TSMC is preparing for 2nm chip production, but whether Apple’s new processor will be ready in time remains to be seen.
