The tech giant is shaking things up with the iPhone 16.

According to Economic Daily, Apple has placed a massive order with Advanced Semiconductor Engineering (ASE) for capacitive buttons. Say goodbye to the old clicky buttons and hello to a whole new touch experience.

So, what’s the deal with these new buttons?

Well, they’ll replace all the traditional buttons on the iPhone 16 series. That includes power, volume, action, and even a fancy new capture button. This capture button will double as a record button for videos and a shutter button for photos. Imagine half-pressing to focus on your subject and sliding to zoom in and out.

These capacitive buttons work by sensing your touch. No more pressing down hard. Just a light touch is all it takes. You’ll even get a bit of haptic feedback to let you know the phone registered your touch. It’s like magic.

You might wonder, “Why didn’t they do this with the iPhone 15?” Well, tech hiccups got in the way.

Adobe's most recent emoji report, the "Future of Creativity: 2022 U.S. Emoji Trend Report," released last fall, surveyed 5,000 emoji users from the United States. They discovered that the emojis enhances "our everyday lives, especially when it comes to self-expression, relationship building, and mental health. The versatility of emoji allows for endless possibilities to connect with each other, as their meanings evolve and inclusivity expands."

Paul D. Hunt, typeface designer and font developer at Adobe, and Kamile Demir, computer scientist at Adobe and Adobe representative on the Unicode Emoji Subcommittee, discussed their emoji thoughts on the new report. "Emoji give people the resources they need to be able to express themselves and show their emotions, whether it be on social media or messaging apps. They allow people to convey more than just words on a screen and connect more deeply to others," Demir said.

One other reason why emojis are so popular is because the online connection can be very cold. Hence, emojis give a human aspect to those online and digital communications. "When we spend so much time behind screens, those desires increase without the in-person markers of tone, facial expressions, and body language," Adobe states. Emojis help bring emotion and life to an otherwise very stale form of conversation. Ready to get your emoji on?
