Apple iPhone 16 series leak reveals huge design changes; check them all out here
A leak has suggested the design changes coming to the Apple iPhone 16 series.
Apple iPhone 16 series is set for launch sometime during the Fall period in 2024. However, with just months to go, the Cupertino-based tech giant has suffered a huge setback with the latest leaks revealing massive design changes likely coming to the Apple iPhone 16, iPhone 16 Plus, iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max. The revelations have been made in a post on X by none other than tipster Sonny Dickson and he has rolled out some images to back up his claims.
Machined blanks
The images are of machined blanks, reported Forbes, and these are actually provided to peripheral manufacturers. They serve the purpose of giving manufacturers the exact ways to design their cases and other accessories that will go with these iPhones. These dimensions have to be exact to ensure a perfect fit when the consumers actually get their hands on them.

Action Button
Among the biggest changes is the presence of the Action Button on all phones in the series. Last year only the iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max got them - the button had replaced the older mute button. The new Action Button can serve as the single-point entry to perform specific tasks. Not just for the end-user, this button will also benefit app makers as they can tailor their products accordingly.
