This is one of those news stories or rumors that has been repeated since a long time ago and while it is true that some users are actually interested in what the guys at Cupertino take that step on the iPhone, the truth is that since many generations that this physical button already does not fail over time (even though there may be exceptions) , so it is now more a matter of aesthetics that problems with the aforementioned button. The home button is one of those marks of identity of Apple devices, so its disappearance as a new leak from Mark Gurman at Bloomberg, it could definitely come in 2017 with the iPhone 8.
The truth is that we are waiting for the official presentation of the new iPhone 7 and brother more iPhone 7 Plus and and we already have on the table leaks from sources rather than contrasting on the next iPhone’s 2017. This is a non-stop and is simple to say or predict the disappearance of this physical button already own Chief Designer of Apple Jony Ive, is the first to say that he would like to see an iPhone completely flat at the front and glass…
In any case if we have clear is that the machine does not stop, and while it is true that we are yet to see the new iPhone 7 officially, rumors about the next model are powerful because of the few changes on an aesthetic level which will be the next iPhone. Already say that all this are rumors and not there is nothing confirmed, but the iPhone 8 could increase slightly the size of screen, install a screen OLED and besides all this have a button home touch up the glass front. All this will see you the coming year from what will be the new Apple headquarters in Cupertino, the Campus 2.
