Another leaker who is well known for his accuracy, ShrimpApplePro, posted a tweet saying this anonymous forum member is the same person who stated — two weeks before the iPhone 14 series’ announcement — that the iPhone 14 Pro models have a Dynamic Island, adding more credence to this new leak.
The same one that shared about the dynamic island 2 weeks before it release is posting about the iPhone 15 Prp capacitive buttons again. https://t.co/HX5CfMbL8n

What are solid-state buttons?
If you are wondering what these “solid-state” buttons are all about, think of them as buttons that, when pressed, don’t go inwards. Instead, the buttons, which are made of solid metal, vibrate to indicate activity.
What are the advantages of capacitive buttons?
Why would you use capacitive buttons instead of mechanical ones? Well, there are a couple of more obvious examples, the first of which has to do with durability. A mechanical button needs space to go in once it’s pressed, and that space serves as a potential weak point in the phone’s overall structure, be it regarding water or pressure-related damage. Getting rid of that space also frees up more real estate inside the phone and makes the design a bit more uniform.
One concern that has to be mentioned with capacitive buttons, including those that are supposed to come with the iPhone 15 Pro, is that they need power in order to function. Thankfully, the same unknown leaker says Apple has taken care of the problem:
The new micro-processor that will ship in the 15 Pro models will not only manage those tasks, but will also be able to immediately sense capacitive button presses, holds, and even detect their own version of 3D Touch with the new volume up/down button, action (currently ringer switch) button, and power button, while the phone is dead or powered down.
