However, one rumour we came across was the introduction of a new capture button but its functionality was unknown. Now, a recent report says that the button will be used to capture videos on iPhone 16. Know more about the new iPhone 16 Capture Button functions here.

According to Bloomberg analyst Mark Gurman's newsletter, the new capture button may be utilized for recording videos. Gurman has hinted that the “Lower-end models will get the Action button, and there will be a new dedicated button for taking video.” This statement also showcases that all models of iPhone 16 will be getting the capture button, yes the plain vanilla ones too, which is currently available only in iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max.

According to a Macrumors report, the iPhone 16 capture button will be placed on the bottom right of the iPhone. It is expected that the upcoming capture button will be installed with an advanced sensor that will recognize your touch without users having to apply much pressure to use its functionalities. It is expected this smooth touch feature haptic feedback will recognise it instantly.

Apple might be integrating the capture button with video recording functionality to encourage users to capture videos in spatial format which can later be viewed in the upcoming Vision Pro headset. Therefore, the new button will make capturing videos more accessible and quick. As of now, the spatial video feature has been added to the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max versions to make them ready for the Apple Vision Pro headset which is rumored to be launched in anywhere between January and March 2024.
