Navigating the iPhone 15 Pro case market: A minefield of choices
The iPhone 15 Pro case market is facing challenges due to the introduction of the new Action Button. While some third-party manufacturers correctly anticipated the change and designed cases with a metal button to activate the Action Button, others opted for a cutout above the volume buttons to expose the traditional ringer switch. This has resulted in the Action Button being recessed and difficult to use. The problem arises because case makers rely on rumors and reporting to design their products before the iPhone is officially announced. Companies like Peak Design and Bellroy have acknowledged the issue and are working on solutions, but it may take several weeks for updated designs to be available. Customers are advised to consider return policies or wait for cases with proper buttons to be released.
