Apple’s upcoming flagship, the iPhone 16 Pro, may feature a physical camera button, according to a leaked CAD (Computer-Aided Design) file. This leak offers a sneak peek at the potential design changes coming to the iPhone 16 Pro.
The overall design appears similar to the iPhone 15, with the familiar triple-lens rear camera. However, the leaked files reveal a key addition: a dedicated capture button on the right side, positioned below the power button. This ergonomic change could simplify photo-taking by eliminating the need to tap the screen.
The exact functionality of the capture button remains unclear. Rumors suggest it might offer a half-press to focus and a full-press to capture, mimicking a traditional camera’s shutter button.

Reports from tech outlet 91Mobiles suggest the iPhone 16 Pro will share many similarities with its predecessor. However, it’s expected to be slightly larger, measuring 149.6 mm long, 71.4 mm wide, and 8.4 mm thick. The display size is still under debate, with rumors floating between 6.1 and 6.3 inches. 91Mobiles leans towards the larger size based on the leaked dimensions and thinner bezels.
In terms of camera upgrades, the iPhone 16 Pro might boast a 5x Tetra Prism telephoto camera for enhanced zooming capabilities. Additional rumors point to a 48-megapixel ultra-wide camera and a 3355 mAh battery. However, details on optical image stabilization remain unknown.
Apple typically unveils its new iPhones in September during a grand event. This year, the public expects the iPhone 16 Pro, along with the fourth-generation iPhone SE and the Apple Watch X, to be revealed.
