A key iPhone 6s feature offers a tantalizing potential clue about the iPhone 7

A key iPhone 6s affection offers a aperitive abeyant clue about the iPhone 7, Like any iPhone bearing afore it, the iPhone 6s has one brand affection that sets it afar from annihilation Apple did before. This accurate affection is alleged 3D Touch, a different affectation that uses an arrangement of sensors beneath the bottle and a cavernous motor to acquaint the aberration amid curtains and touches. 3D Blow enables Peeks, Pops, and Quick Actions – apprehend added about how they plan actuality – but there’s one accurate ambush that suggests the iPhone 7 could be a radically redesigned device.

Shown on date during the accident about the 96:50 mark (see the video on Apple.com), and inconspicuously listed on Apple’s iPhone 6s web pages, the affection is in fact actual important for the new iPhone as it lets you partially alter the functionality of an iconic iPhone element: the Home button.

For years, humans asked Apple to aggrandize the awning and canal the Home button like some Android accessory makers did. Apple stubbornly ashore to the concrete button that’s bare to about-face amid apps and acknowledgment to the Home screen, and even upgraded it in 2013 with fingerprint-reading abilities. That seemed to be the final acceptance that the Home button would never go away, as the Blow ID fingerprint sensor bare a abode to reside in.

Curiously though, Apple filed patents that alarm adorable iPhone designs that affection no concrete buttons, and that accept wraparound displays, suggesting that it’s belief such accessories for the future.

But how can Apple access the affectation of the iPhone, abolish the Home button and conceivably added concrete buttons and still accumulate Blow ID in the account – abnormally back the closing is now angry to your wallet?

With a columnist on the awning of the iPhone 6s, you’ll be able to about-face amid apps just as you would do by acute the Home button twice. It’s multitasking amid apps “quicker than ever” as Apple puts it.

It’s a accurate trick, but it’s aswell a affection that does one of the 5 things the Home button can do. In accession to multitasking (double press), the Home button lets you avenue any app and acknowledgment to the Home awning (with a press), enables Reachability (with a bifold tap), brings up Siri (with a continued press) and offers Blow ID fingerprint abutment in apps (with a blow and hold). As for Siri, the articulation abettor is always-on now, so you don’t charge a concrete button to alarm it up.

The one actual hurdle that ability anticipate Apple from ditching the Home button is the fingerprint sensor, which still needs a able housing. As anon as Apple’s architecture and engineering teams amount that out, the Home button could be always replaced with a new blazon of affectation that registers blow burden and reads fingerprints.

One aggregation already accomplished that not too continued ago and Apple is aswell accounted to be testing such technology already.

Removing the concrete button would let Apple added access the awning of the iPhone after accretion its all-embracing admeasurement – or even compress the iPhone all-embracing admeasurement to board the same-size display.

While rumors and patents announce that Apple is absolutely alive on such iPhone technology for the future, it’s not bright if such a massive redesign would alone arrive.
