    This would have never happened with the Mute rocker switch...

    ---------------

    Uploaded on November 6, 2023, Carterpcs revealed a recent incident
    where his iPhone 15 action button accidentally triggered the phone’s flashlight while in his pocket.

    “Today the iPhone 15 action button almost killed me,” he joked before stating it might be a little dramatic.

    Carter went on to he began [sic] to feel “searing pain” in his thigh
    while in class and sat there for a bit before realizing that it could
    have been due to the iPhone’s flashlight being on.

    After connecting the dots, Carter was able to turn off his flashlight
    and save his leg from any major injury due to the heat.

    He did have a suggestion to share with Apple, though. “I feel like
    that’s a pretty easy fix. If the flashlight’s been on for an extended period of time, and the camera doesn’t see anything — just turn it off after like 5 minutes,” he said.

    Whether or not Carter changed his action button settings after this
    incident is unknown, but it’s safe to assume that he’ll be quicker to
    shut off his flashlight the next time it gets activated on accident.

    A quick web search for "accidentally turned on iPhone flashlight" shows
    this was happening *long* before the iPhone 15 came along. Weak troll,
    as usual. You bored, or something?

    "Searing pain"?

    And then "almost killed" and "major injury"?

    From an LED?

    Please.

    "he joked before stating it might be a little dramatic."

    But you ran with it as the lede anyway.

    Weak and lazy trolls are his thing.
