While it is becoming known that the iPhone 15 is entering the final development phase and that there are even test devices, some of the novelties that Apple is working on to their future phones. And, from the looks of it, the generation of 2024 will have a major update on Face ID.
The use of fingerprint readers for a long time under the screen It has been normalized, as long as the device includes an AMOLED panel. The truth is that it is a good solution, since it is quite comfortable and, best of all, intuitive because everything can be seen perfectly (something that does not happen when used in the rear). And, it seems, the Cupertino company intends to do the same with the set of elements that allow the execution of the facial recognition. But, of course, this is not easy and, for this reason, we have to wait until next year.
The benefits of the new Face ID of the iPhone 16
By achieving this, there are options that are quite positive that are achieved. An example is that the design will be much more stylized in the terminals that offer this possibility, since the uniformity of the front will be excellent. In addition, it will be possible to significantly reduce the dimensions of the Dynamic Island, which means that there will be more space on the panel that will be usable both by the operating system and by the applications.
Based on the technical challenges remaining for under panel cameras to meet discerning brands quality requirements as well as panel manufacturers’ cost requirements, I still believe this roadmap makes sense for the iPhone. pic.twitter.com/3ck5X3sVcL

In this way, it was possible to achieve something that seems to have been a desire of Apple for its iPhones for a long time: to achieve a complete front occupied by the screen and, therefore, to achieve a much better dive (something that would fit with the leap that the North American firm seems to be planning to make to be a much more important player in the world of Augmented Reality). By the way, to achieve this, there has to be a front camera changewhich could be UPC type so that its operation is adequate under the panel.
It would not reach all Apple phones of 2024
The reason is that from the source of the information it is indicated that will be the Pro variants which will include this advance, in order to become another incentive for users when buying what will surely be the most expensive iPhone from the company with the bitten apple. The big question is whether Apple can get a adequate quality both when taking selfies and in the speed of work when executing facial recognition. If it succeeds, we are talking about an improvement that could be differential compared to the competition… if it is not ahead.
