According to information sources, "touch" and "press" could be distinguished by conventional pressure sensitive touch technology, but in 3D touch display new "Deeper press (Deep Press)"It seems that it will be a technology capable of recognizing pressure in three stages. The name "3D touch display" seems to have been named because it enables three-dimensional pressure sensing by the new sensor.


With this 3D touch display, 9to 5 Mac predicts that various shortcut gestures will be available on iPhone 6s equipped with iOS 9. For example, "When asking for navigation to a destination on the map application, please press the screen instead of tapping" or "I am playing with the music application "You can add music to a playlist by pressing a song and giving a song to a friend, press it even more strongly", "press a strongly on the application icon on the home screen to display shortcuts to frequently used functions in the app" "Press link URL on Safari, display page preview of link destination" etc. I anticipate that iPhone will be able to operate more conveniently and intuitively if you use it well like this.
