According to a Korean daily The Investor we should expect a new generation of Face ID technology in this year's iPhone and iPad models, which will be provided by LG for Apple.

LG will be one of the main partners in 2018, not only for Face ID

The amount that Apple has decided to invest in LG will certainly not be small. Thus, the advance payment could be up to 821 million dollars, which LG will use mainly for the security of technical equipment (production lines/...). Also, LG could take care of the production of the camera modules as well. In addition to components for the new generation of sensors, this year we will also see panels for the new iPhones from LG, as we already are mentioned a few days ago.

At least one variant of the iPad Pro should also see the implementation of Face ID. However, it is also possible that we will get a standard model that will not have this technology. The bet on LG should bring Apple, above all, greater security of supply.
