The designs for Apple’s iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Pro have already been leaked, but it has been recently reported that the company has made a surprising decision to revive a significant upgrade that was initially abandoned. According to a reliable leaker, while Apple had to discard its plans for solid-state haptic volume buttons on the iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max, it has managed to retain the highly anticipated Action button, which will replace the mute switch.
The Action button is expected to take cues from the Apple Watch Ultra and offer software customization. It is not yet clear whether it will have multiple functions accessible through double taps, long presses, or pressure-based presses, but it will be solid-state.

Apple has made a significant late design change for the iPhone 15 Pro, replacing the solid-state haptic volume buttons with a highly anticipated Action button that will replace the mute switch. Renderings of the solid-state volume button component that Apple initially planned to use have been leaked, indicating that this change happened late in the phone’s development. Despite this, the phone is still at the Engineering Validation Test (EVT) development stage, and analyst Ming-Chi Kuo has stated that the change should not impact the release date.
What can iPhone 15 Pro customers expect? Leaks suggest that the phone will feature remarkably thin front bezels, impressive performance, a significant upgrade to the LiDAR sensor, rear cameras with an optical zoom lens – a first for an iPhone, USB-C (with limitations), and the possibility of a brand new deep red color option (more information in the provided link).
However customers and fans of the product troop to Twitter to express their concerns about the product design .
