According to a newly leaked report by financial titan
Barclays, MacRumors has revealed that Apple will
be bringing back the Touch ID for its 2020 iPhone flagships. Within
the report, Barclays notes that the new Touch ID sensor will effectively fill
the entire screen, meaning that you will be able to unlock the new models by
placing your fingerprint anywhere on the display. While competitors such as Samsung and
fast-rising up and comer OnePlus have
meticulously implemented in-display readers, much of these products rely on
small areas for detection.
Since December, Apple has filed for approximately five
in-display Touch ID patents, with accompanying information revealing that the
new system will most likely 3D model it, rather than simply scanning it. This
falls in line with Apple’s plans to turn the iPhone into a biometrically secured e-Passport.
On top of the new Touch ID system, the report notes
that next year’s iPhones will also come with 5G as well as a 3D sensing rear
camera system originally expected in this year’s flagships. On top of these
various new additions, Apple will supposedly be upgrading its new range of
iPhones with OLED displays.

Will you be waiting an extra year to jump the gun on a new iPhone?
