Buttons on smartphones could soon be a thing of the past

We've already seen Meizu introduce the Zero last January, a phone with absolutely no buttons and no ports. Meizu considered it a concept and attempted to raise $100,000 on Indiegogo where it was priced at $1,299. But the campaign fell far short of the goal (only $45,000 was pledged) and the Zero was canceled. Too pricey? Too far ahead of its time? Meanwhile, the HTC U12+ released last year replaced real buttons with sensors that resembled buttons. When they were pressed, the user would receive haptic feedback to simulate the click of a real button.

So we get it, buttons ...
