A new leak claims Apple plans to invest heavily in “second touch interface” iPhone cases that add extra input features. Details are vague, but the idea may involve touch-sensitive areas on the case—possibly replacing physical buttons entirely, something Apple has long been rumored to pursue. A related Apple patent describes cases with built-in sensors that let the phone disable its own buttons and respond to inputs from the case instead. These features are reportedly aimed at making future iPhone Pro models “even more Pro,” with the next Pro lineup expected in fall 2026.
