Rumoured iPhone 15 Pro redesign might push a few buttons

There's no denying that Apple is a brand that both giveth and taketh away. For every Dynamic Island or Always-On Display, there's a feature that Apple chooses to remove from the iPhone, whether it's the power adapter or headphone jack. The removal of the latter was described as "courageous" by Apple in 2016 – but its next rumoured design move might be an even braver design choice.

We've heard rumours for a while that Apple is planning to ditch physical buttons on the iPhone 15 Pro in favour of solid state haptic buttons that respond with vibrations (think the home button on the iPhone SE). And now, a renowned Apple analyst has suggested the move is going ahead. (Don't fancy waiting? Check out the best iPhone 14 deals available now.)
