touch id
Few months left to see what will the next big apple iPhone be like. El iPhone 8, o como se conoce según los rumores, ha sido uno de los dispositivos con más interés por parte de los analistas. Si seguís a diario Actualidad iPhone podréis haber visto como casi cada día aparece un nuevo informe con information related to the next iPhone. One of the aspects that is being discussed the most in recent weeks is the Touch ID of which it is not known with certainty where it will be located. The latest report from the Cowen group ensures that Apple continues to have doubts with the biometric sensor of the iPhone 8 since the structure of the device makes it difficult to keep the sensor in the front part.
The three possible Touch ID options for the iPhone 8
Cowen's analyst Timoty arcuri has published a report on how complex it is being for Apple decide the position of the Touch ID. It should be remembered that the next iPhone 8 will have a larger screen without a frame, which would mean permanently eliminating the Home button (or what remains of it) from the bottom. This change would prevent placing the physical Touch ID at the front, but so far reports have pointed to Apple was developing a new technology with which to insert the sensor inside the OLED screen.
But this analysis that has appeared today shows us the headache that is causing Apple, which has developed three possible options:
- Create a small hole inside the glass and insert an ultrasonic or optical sensor
- Lower the glass cover below the sensor
- Integrate the sensor inside the screen using infrared or capacitive technology
As you see the option of bring Touch ID to the back it is null by the big apple. In addition, we will not know the result until September since these delays in the technology of the iPhone 8 would lead to Apple to delay production, and therefore leaks by part manufacturers would be avoided.
He knows that it would be humiliating for Apple, for a Chinese company that few know to appear and remove the fingerprint sensor inside the screen and Apple that has a horde of engineers and millions can not achieve the same, apart from being disappointing for us, it would be a very low blow for apple and surely the sales will not be very good if they do not manage to put it inside the screen
Totally according to hebichii, in the back it has not liked although it ends up getting used to it, but it is not the best solution, if it is not under the screen it would be a disappointment.
It would not be the first time that apple is ahead of something in something
Remember the Samsung fingerprint sensor that it took out before Apple and everyone said that how could it be that it allowed itself to be overtaken and such, because remember how disastrous that first fingerprint sensor turned out to be and the failures it gave
Apple released it later but with better sensitivity and faster than Samsung
I prefer things well done and retested than rushing and getting a potato out of whatever
Patience is a virtue and with apple you have to have it, but in the end you know that on one side or the other it will end up surprising you
