I hate this no buttons trend, new cars also seem to be heading in the same direction...

It’s failure due to liquid or debris. I’ve seen probably one or two defective buttons on an iPhone or iPad in the last 6 years. All the rest of the cases were accidental damage.
Along with the SIM tray, removal of the buttons reduces the amount of possible ingress by 3. All that’s left are the two speaker ports, Lightning port, and the receiver speaker.
With the way Apple is going with water/dustproofing, I am fully expecting USB-C on their phones to be a pipe dream or a short-lived memory.

HTC doesn't have Apple's market weight. If apple does it, they'll tell everyone to get on their knees as they unzip their pants and a line will wrap around the building.

Basically. Apple won the cult of technology war. They can do no wrong. Their position in the market ensures it now.

Apple are really moving off-course to seem innovative and push more product.

Whose modern phone is out here experiencing volume and power button mechanical failures?
