The Cupertino company continues to be reluctant to include biometric identification technology in the display, which although some companies have developed poorly, there are others like Huawei or Xiaomi that implement these very well. systems on their mobile phones.
This is why Apple, which does not want to be outdone, is studying the implementation of a Touch ID on the screen accompanying the current Face ID.
We start by warning, the inclusion of this technology is completely excluded for the arrival of the iPhone 13, it is rather expected for the iPhone 14 or the name that Apple decides to give to its device in 2022. From this way, the brand has worked on a patent named “display of electronic devices for through-screen imaging” as explained in Apple Insider
Face ID, once you get used to it, is a truly wonderful technology. However, the arrival of this pandemic and the use of the mask forced us to go straight back to the iPhone 5 at the earliest, since Touch ID only arrived with the iPhone 5s. We’re talking about the old but foolproof technology of entering the passcode to unlock the device, something that frankly annoys a lot of us. As the masks gradually disappear, we can only hope that Apple finally implements a Touch ID on the screen.
