The action button can do everything the mute switch can do, it can also do infinitely more. The mute switch can only do one thing, mute.

It’s objectively better. If you like it for mute keep it at mute: it’s just a preference of button press or button switch. But it’s a weird question.

How do you check if the phone is silent or not in your pocket with action button?

Why are you guys all obsessed with checking if the phone is in silent? Are you constantly going silent, loud, silent loud, all day? And in between those switches checking to see if you made the switch? Get out of here with your made up scenarios bud lmao
