iPhone 16 recently made its debut at the Apple Glowtime event 2024 on September 9 and it went on sale in India and around the globe on September 10. The iPhone 16 is the smallest and most affordable one among the four models announced by Apple this year.

As the name suggests, the new button is aimed to offer better control over the camera but it goes beyond the press-and-shoot function.

Initially, I was pretty excited to use the new Camera Control but over the days, the natural instincts just took over. I was back at using the screen to control the camera adjustments. The
