Standout Physical Upgrades

Camera Control Button: Positioned on the lower right side of the frame. This tactile and touch-sensitive surface responds to clicks, light presses, and sliding gestures, allowing you to seamlessly adjust zoom, depth of field, or switch camera tools on the fly.
The Action Button: Previously exclusive to older Pro models, this custom physical key replaced the traditional ring/silent switch across the entire base lineup to map shortcuts like the flashlight, voice memos, or accessibility settings.
Enhanced Build: Utilizes a color-infused back glass panel paired with a next-generation Ceramic Shield front cover that Apple engineered to be twice as tough as standard smartphone glass.
