The iPhone 15 Pro has long been rumored to ditch the much-loved mute switch in favor of a more flexible Action Button.
And while the button can reportedly still be programmed to offer the same functionality — muting and unmuting your phone without having to wake up the screen — many worry that it won’t be the same. If you’re in the cinema or theater, say, you can feel whether your iPhone is silent or not without removing the handset from your pocket. With a button, you won’t be able to feel a difference.
