Touch ID will not arrive on this year's iPhones
We can also thank Mark Gurman and his analyzes for the second part of today's summary of speculations. According to Gurman, despite some estimates, this year's iPhones will not feature Touch ID. In his Power On newsletter, which came out last week, Gurman says that this year's iPhones will not have an under-display fingerprint sensor. The reason is said to be that Apple's long-term goal is to place the hardware needed to operate the Face ID function under the display.

Gurman reports that Apple has tested Touch ID under the display, but will not implement it in this year's iPhones. "I believe Apple wants to have Face ID on its higher-end iPhones, and its long-term goal is to implement Face ID directly into the display," Gurman says. Speculations that at least one of the iPhones will get Touch ID under the display appear every year, usually in connection with "low-cost" iPhone models. Gurman does not explicitly deny the possibility of introducing Touch ID under the display, but insists that we will almost certainly not see it this year. This year's iPhones should feature a slightly smaller notch at the top of the display, improved cameras, and should also offer a 120Hz refresh rate.
