Phones with home buttons have the control centre in the same place it always was, at the bottom. Only the newer notch-style phones have it on the top-right.

I have always thought this was weird, but for what it’s worth, it works the same way on the tablets (if it has a home button, swipe from the bottom, otherwise, swipe from the top right).

Nope. The iPad Air 2 I’m typing this on has a home button but makes me swipe from the top right for the control panel. And yes it is fairly up to date, it’s on 15.6.1.
It’ll probably change in a few years again. Except it won’t for some devices.

what!??!!??! Well there goes that theory.
They actually denied this when the X was released. It make total sense in the context of not having a hardware button. It reduces false triggers.

It is not. My iPad Air 2 and iPhone 6s are both running 15.6.1. I have to swipe down for the control center on the tablet, and up for the phone.
Some are saying they see a pattern of “if it has a home button you swipe up, otherwise down” but both of these iThings have a home button.
It is consistent.
