iPhone 15 Pro Max Case Leak Reveals A Significant Design Shift

The iPhone 15 Pro models are set to gain major design changes. From theUSB Type-C porton an iPhone for the first time to thethinnest bezelson an iPhone, there’s much to look forward to. With that being said, it appears that we might just have confirmation for another major design shift for the 15 Pro models. Have a look at the details below.

iPhone 15 Pro Mute Button Changes Expected

Based on live imagessharedby the whistleblowerMajin Bu (via IT House), it appears that Apple is ditching the 16-year-old ‘Mute Button,’for a brand new‘Custom Button’for the flagship iPhone 15 Pro Max. This corroborates an earlierleakfromMing-Chi Kuo. This will be one of the biggest design changes for the flagship iPhone model. Previously, the Mute button rested in the top left corner of the mid-frame for easy toggling. iPhone cases adapted to the same design principle.

However, it now appears that it is set to change. The shared image reveals a“wider and more rounded”cutout at the top left corner of the mid-frame. This cutout will apparently house the alleged custom key. The Cupertino tech giant might call it theAction Button,derived from the Watch Ultra’s Action button.

If this happens, this can become handy in more than one way. For example, apart from muting notifications and calls, you will be able to map this button to trigger any functionality like activating Siri, launching specific apps, triggering specific commands, the ability to use it as a camera shutter, and much more.

Besides this, other design changes like a biggercamera hump, adark red coloroption, and rounded corners are still in the pipeline. On the hardware front, expect theA17 Bionic chipsetto fuel the lineup. There will be the iPhone 15 and the 15 Plus with some upgrades too. The iPhone 15 lineup is expected to arrive in September. Hence, there is still time for concrete pieces of evidence to emerge.
