yeah there's a lot of repetition.. but still better than the 8gb ram ones that macrumors is capitalizing so heavily on for page views resulting from back and forth arguments.

iPhone 16 to Include Action Button Across Entire Lineup

NO ONE has any idea of what Jobs would have done or not done.
I agree. Perhaps they could have spent years and years on research and had both the mechanical ringer switch and an Action button. Perhaps this is too groundbreaking to consider.
The thing I don't like about the action button is it sits too high to be used conveniently while the phone is in the palm of my hand. It should be relocated below the volume buttons.
I’m saying newer features in general are not being taken advantage of to encourage people to upgrade.
AOD
Live activities
Action button
Dynamic Island
If Apple doubled down on these and encouraged more third party use it could be a real reason to push people to upgrade to newer phones. But since the features have remained largely unused- a 13 pro and below if your an average user; doesn’t see much difference or reason in terms of the “new” features in how the phone looks and operates
They gotta double down on this new stuff. Some of it feels half baked.
Action button is a flop. Use it less than I used the ringer switch
IMO the button needed to be centered on the phone, or at least not at an extremity, in order to be good as a shutter button. Trying to push it requires too much force on that end of the phone and makes you wobble your hand.
iPhone X: The all new iPhone with one less button. Look how wonderful.
iPhone 15: The all new iPhone with one more button. Look how wonderful.

Such a nightmare Apple has been focusing on useless features. First the Dynamic island which app developers have not embraced. Now its buttons with the action & capture buttons.
How about Apple redesigns an aging design. Such as embracing a foldable design, opening the possibilities for larger displays with less curb in our pockets, and introducing new ways we interact with our phones.
I am currently using a iphone 12 pro max, and will more than likely upgrade to the 16 pro max, as i am now having issues with my phone.
But without a revamp the iphone is starting to become more boring year by year.

“the updated Action button will feature a force sensor”
Is there a way to learn the usefulness of this button?
Not from a Genious.

I wish they would have kept the mute switch and then made a separate action button that was located more ergonomically friendly on the phone for my small azzed hands.
Just my 2 half penny's worth.

Needs to be moved somewhere below the power button because the current position is pretty dumb and inconvenient
What’s wrong with Live activities? I use it for street parking and charging my car. Very convenient.
