Upcoming iPhones Might Come With Under-Display Touch-ID, Claims Leaker

Oct. 18, 2020



With the introduction of the 4th-gen iPad Air,Apple revived the Touch-ID in a whole new way, integrated into the power button, whichApple execs state is“an incredible feat of engineering”. So, one ought to think that Apple might bring the Touch-ID back to the iPhone’s power button, right?

Now, apart from the word “iPhone”, I did not understand what the tweet actually meant. However, going through the reply-tweets, I found popularApple leaker, Jon Prosser’s explanation tweet.

So, in thistweet, Prosser wrote that “MESA” is actuallythe code-word for Touch-IDinside Apple’s offices and labs. And the acronym, “uts” means “under the screen”. Well, suddenly it all makes sense now, doesn’t it?.

The whole sentence in the anonymous leaker’s tweet actually is “Touch-ID under the screen for iPhone”, which hints at iPhones with under-display fingerprint-scanning technology.

However, other than the above fact, there is no information on which generation of iPhones are we talking about or when will they come out. So, until there is any physical evidence suggesting the existence of the under-display Touch-ID technology in iPhones, I suggest you take this information with a grain of salt.
