Making a bold prediction - when Apple launch the full iPhone upgrade (versus iPhone 6S) they will replace the volume up/down buttons with a Digital Crown.

It offers many advantages over the current UP/DOWN buttons:-

- Offers variable rate ("analog") control versus on/off digital buttons - better for scrolling, zooming, adjusting sliders such as volume, brightness, fast forward/scrubbing in media
- Has additional dimensions such as turn, press, double press, press and hold
- Makes better precision games possible
- Makes iPhone controls more unique versus Android

You read it here first.
HAHAHAHA! Poor you! Weak attempt btw.
And why do we have these nonsense threads in the first place? OR, maybe I should start too.

I predict that you will grow and elephant nose next year! There, you read it here first. Thank you!
 
They could make the crown like this old volume spinner...immagine having it on the side and croll with it!

They won't break easily and could make lots of cool action .....too bad it won't happen though!

Immagine it being in the same metal as the border and barely protruding...:p
