[RUMOUR] iPhone 16 (or 17) won'ty have physical buttons

There are lots of rumors that the iPhone 16 (or maybe 17) will lose some or all of its physical buttons, to be replaced with capacitive touch buttons instead. Assuming the rumours turn out to be true (and likely on the high end model first), you'll probably see Samsung make fun of how silly the idea is ... only to of course then copy it six months later on their own new phone models.
Personally I hate touch buttons. Physical buttons are far far better. Even car makers who had used touch buttons on their infotainment devices and steering wheels controls have realised they're crap and are moving back to physical ones instead.
