Details

Your iPhone 16 won't lock when you press the side button, or it takes three tries to wake it. Taking a screenshot has turned into a game of chance. If the button moves normally and a restart doesn't help, the flex behind it has probably failed.

This aftermarket power button flex cable fits the iPhone 16. The listing covers the side (power) button; it doesn't say whether other buttons share this flex.

Why side buttons give up

It's one of the most-pressed parts on the phone: lock, wake, Apple Pay, Siri, screenshots. Over time the switch can wear, and a drop on that edge, a splash of liquid or an earlier repair can damage it sooner. Signs include a button that needs a firm press, works only some of the time, or doesn't respond at all.

Try without a case first, in case it's pressing on the button. Until it's fixed, AssistiveTouch gives you an on-screen button for locking, screenshots and restarting.

Fitting the flex means opening the phone and peeling out a glued cable, so a repair shop is a good choice if you haven't done it before. Afterward, one press is all it takes again.
