Apple’s 20th Anniversary iPhone to Launch Next Year Without an Action Button, Tipster Claims

Apple will launch the 20th anniversary iPhone next year without the Action Button, according to a tipster. Further, the leaker claims that the Action Button will be integrated into the Camera Control button. A single tap will reportedly open the camera, while a long press could trigger the assigned Action Button functionality, he added. Introduced with the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max in 2023, the Action Button has gone through little to no changes since its launch. It remains mappable to different “actions”, while being a mute switch by default. The Action Button replaced the Alert Slider, which allowed users to switch between modes. Started with the Pro models in 2023, the slider was phased out completely in 2024 with the arrival of the iPhone 16 lineup.
