Wow. This so perfectly simulated a click feel for me that I didn't even know this was a fake click until reading your comment.

Funny thing about haptic click is how jarring it is if it's off, like pressing your iphone's home button before you realize it lost its charge. It really feels super-dead.

I’ve known it’s fake for years, and I still feel like it’s moving.

Right? It's a masterpiece in design. I know, I look, and I still feel the movement of a click. How?!

To be fair, it moves just a tiny bit. But the click feeling itself, yes, that is magical.

iPhone home buttons do the same.
