A publication that draws info from Apple’s supply chain is moving goalposts again, and is now saying that Face ID under the screen isn’t coming until “after 2026.”
The rumors of an all-screen iPhone with no camera penetrations is evergreen, and goes back about five years. Release of an all-screen iPhone always seemed to be coming “next year,” and a new supply chain report has pushed the arrival back again, but this time, by well more than a year.A report from The Elec on early Wednesday says that a new screen technology from existing Apple supplier LG will be used to fulfill Apple’s want for all of its cameras under the screen and not visible to the user. The report also claims that Apple has looked at similar technology from Samsung, but wasn’t impressed with what was delivered.
