iPhone 16 has a new Camera Control button -- Here's everything it can do
Using that new touch-sensitive button as a moving dial surface is novel, and might be great.
However, using the force-touch button to take a picture can cause your phone to MOVE as you shoot it.
Back in the day, when I first got an iPhone (5S) and started using its camera, I first use the option of the physical button on the side to activate the image-capture; as one would do with a full stand-alone camera.
But I found that some shots had a slight motion, as the force to press the button moved the phone a bit. So, I gravitated toward the on-screen button.
Buttons on a real stand-alone cameras must be calibrated so perfectly to prevent such movement.
Maybe Apple figured a calibration for this new button that will just as nice.

Apple Fitness+ review: A physical & mental health godsend during the pandemic winter
Similar to the author, I was desperate for something in the dead of winter and tried three different routines one day. I have not stopped since then. Four times a week. 20 min of this, 10 min of that, sometimes a 30 min spin bike (at school where I work), sometimes some HIIT or Cardio before my 3-mile jog when weather permits. Yeah, the sweet spot of needed activity and motivation. I like that I can choose so many different things and even then choose my own cool down. -
M3 MacBook Air & MacBook Pro may not debut until October
Is this article suggesting Apple would release a 13” M3 MacBook Air, but leave the 15” MacBook Air at M2?
If so, I don’t get why Apple would do that.
They’re the same computer, just a bigger screen in one of ‘em.
And, most people ready to purchase the 15” Air would wait if they saw the M3 was in the 13”; they’d know the M3 is just around the corner for the 15”.
Silly. -
Apple TV+ has 'no excuse' for lagging growth, says Netflix co-founder
At $5 a month, it is a good value. For $5, I feel like there is one new quality show (or season of a show) every month, all original content, an occasional movie or two of very high quality (Tom Hanks and such), and a documentary series. For $5 a month, and the quality, it is worth it to me. I spend more than that on one book. -
Big screen battle -- iPhone 16 Pro Max vs iPhone 15 Pro Max features compared
Using a button to take a picture can cause your phone to MOVE as you shoot it. --You finger, pushing the button, very slightly moving the phone downward as the capture is happening.
Back with my first iPhone (5S), I used one of the physical buttons on the side to activate the image-capture; as one would do with a full stand-alone camera.
Both me and my family found the some shots had a slight motion, as the force to press the button moved the phone a bit.
The shutter button on any stand-alone camera is very loose and perfectly sensitive so that device-movement when held in your hands is not a factor.
Due to the phone moving slightly when I used the side button on an iPhone (as that button on the 5S required some force), I switched to the on-screen red button.
So, I wonder how this new face-touch button will play out.
Might be just fine.
The original iteration of this idea didn't work out for some of us.
