Is the Touch ID button indestructible?

[iMore Question]

The touch ID button on the iPhone SE, is it indestructible? I heard it uses sapphire glass which I guess it is harder to break. So is it difficult to break the Touch ID button through finger pressure?

Also, do you feel a rotating kind of effect if you put your finger on it and move it in circles? Just wondering.

Welcome to iMore.

No it is not indestructible. And what would make you want to push on it and spin it in circles? You are looking to break it if you are doing these kind of things to it. You are aware there are sensors attached to it. Under normal use it should not break, but as with anything it is possible it could still fail. It is a moving part. All I can do is wish you the best of luck with your SE.
