Apple iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max may come with solid-state buttons instead of physical buttons. Here’s why.
Next year’s Apple iPhone 15 series is expected to come with many changes over the current iPhone 14 series. Expect a greater specs differentiation between the vanilla iPhone 15 and the Pro models. Now, TF International Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo says the iPhone 15 Pro models will replace the physical clickable volume buttons with solid-state buttons.
Kuo compared the iPhone 15 Pro models to the Apple iPhone 7 where Apple replaced the clickable home button with a solid-state button. Kuo predicts that this change will happen only on the high-end iPhone 15 Pro models, widening the gap between the vanilla and pro models further.

My latest survey indicates that the volume button and power button of two high-end iPhone 15/2H23 new iPhone models may adopt a solid-state button design (similar to the home button design of iPhone 7/8/SE2 & 3) to replace the physical/mechanical button design.
