iPhone 16 Designers Discuss the Creative Process Behind the Camera Control Button

Two iPhone 16 designers, Rich Dinh and Johnny Manzari, appeared on the Cool Hunting Design Tangents podcast to discuss their thinking behind the development of the new Camera Control button. They talked about how this feature allows users to quickly capture special moments with their children, and how it appeals to both casual and professional photographers. The physical design of the button was carefully considered, including details like its flush finish, chamfered edges and durability, as well as the combination of a force sensor and capacitive sensor which unlocks new experiences for iPhone users.
