Siyaqhubeka ngamarhe malunga nokwaziswa kwekamva le-iPhone 8, ngakumbi ngokubhekisele kwinkqubo yokuvula yesiqhelo. Abahlalutyi bakhombe kwiintsuku zamva nje ekuphunyezweni kwesikena se-iris kwikhamera engaphambili, konke ukuze kususwe iqhosha lasekhaya lasekhaya, into esisikrokrela nje kwiinyanga ezimbalwa emva kokuba iApple iguqule yaba liqhosha ledijithali. I-patent entsha inokuchaza ukuba iqhosha liphelile, kwaye ijolise kwenye inkqubo yokuvula yotshintsho ejolise ekwenzeni isixhobo sethu sikhuseleke ngakumbi, nangona sinyanisekile, andicingi ukuba nabani na uya kuphazamiseka yiTouchID yangoku.
Iqela le AppleInsider ibinguye oye wayifumana le patenet intsha, eya kuthi ixhaphaze ukuya kuthi ga koyilo olutsha lwe-iPhone ngaphandle kwe-bezels, enkosi kwisikrini sayo se-OLED. Le teknoloji ayisiyiTouchID ngokwenyani njengoko sinokuqonda, kodwa endaweni yoko yinkqubo yebhayometri yokhuseleko esingazange sayibona ngaphambili. U-Apple uyibize «Uyilo lweNkqubo ye-Acoustic », eya kuthi ithathe indawo yeTouchID ngothotho lweenzwa kumacala escreen athi, njengoko siqondile, abambe amaza kunye neempuphu ezibangelwe bubukho bomnwe kwiglasi yescreen, ekhethekileyo ukuyithetha kancinci.
Nangona kunjalo, sifuna ukubonisa ukuba ayinyanzelekanga ukuba ithathe indawo yeTouchID, enye into enokwenzeka kukuba igqibelele inkqubo yentshukumo ekhupha iimpendulo kwiindawo ezichanekileyo, into i-Apple ebizama ukuyenza ixesha elide, umzekelo yayo Injini yeTaptic. Siyakhumbula kwakhona ukuba uninzi lolu hlobo lokuvuza kunye namalungelo awodwa omenzi zihlala zingahambisi ndawo., kodwa endaweni yoko banombono nje wento abafana baseCupertino abanayo engqondweni, eneneni u-Apple unomkhwa wobunikazi malunga nayo yonke into. Izikhalazo malunga nezakhelo ze-iPhone kunye nokusetyenziswa kancinci kwembonakalo yayo kubonakala ngathi kuya kuqhubeka kusebenza.
