Infra-red touch requires a raised bezel, so once they made the design choice to have a flush bezel then they had to use capacitive touch for those models.

I don't know why they used capacitive touch on some models that have a raised bezel though, unless it is something to do with the different waterproofing technique they used on those models. The H2O1 has a more complicated (and so probably more expensive) waterproofing method than the H2O2.
