LG is gaining integers in recent years thanks to Apple's intention to gradually separate itself from the need for Samsung To manufacture its devices and its components, it is a relative way to enrich the competition, although Apple bets on Samsung for its more than recognized guarantee of quality.
However, it is time to move away little by little. One technology that the Cupertino company intends to popularize is Face ID, and for this it will have LG to manufacture the necessary components. And it is that following the example of Touch ID, the logical thing would be that little by little the Cupertino company integrates this technology in all its devices with iOS.
Once again, it is the analysts who begin to predict how Apple could end up making deals with reputable brands, not so long ago we heard that Apple could start setting up the MediaTek SoC to supply its dependence on Qualcomm, a firm with which it maintains an important litigation (hopefully this doesn't happen). Now the other alternative is LG, and it is that according to rumors, the manufacture of the iPhone X has been clearly affected by the suppliers of the elements necessary to implement facial recognition technology. The South Korean manufacturer has plenty of experience and capacity to sell all these products that are in demand from Cupertino.
The logical step is that over the months Face ID technology will replace the fingerprint reader also on the iPad and the most basic models with iOS, or at least that they coexist simultaneously, something we doubt, because when Apple takes a determination hardly takes a step back. A shame, because the Touch ID is still a comfortable and avant-garde element. Nevertheless, Ming-Chi Kuo is clear about it, Apple could make deals worth almost 850 million dollars with LG to provide the necessary elements to integrate Face ID in all products of the company (will we see it on a MacBook?), Mark Gurman of Bloomberg is also clear.
