iPhone 8 display assembly spotted, no Touch ID in sight
Iphone 8 display assembly leaks out
Last we heard, the highly anticipated anniversary iPhone 8
is still on track for a September announcement and a very limited
November-December initial release. That hopeful report was quickly followed up
by reputable industry insider tips that production of the Apple crown jewel has
indeed started, meaning part leaks are inbound as well!
There is also no sign of a Touch ID sensor, at least not in
the traditional iPhone round home button fashion. This, of course, leads us
back into the ongoing fingerprint reader debate. Here are the options so far:
First there is the popular theory that a large side-mounted power key will hold
the sensor, much like on some Sony Xperia phones. A less likely scenario is
having the reader embedded in the glass back of the iPhone 8. We've already
seen alleged photos of it and those don't really suggest such a setup. An
under-display option, while still technically possible is widely dismissed by
expert, at least for this iPhone generation.
