Touch ID bleibt
So, it’s entirely possible that Apple will adopt facial recognition as a first-attempt to unlock, with fingerprint as a fallback. What’s not remotely credible, in my view, is Apple abandoning fingerprints altogether. And while the technology to read them may be different, my money is on Apple continuing to use its existing name for fingerprint reading, simply branding it as ‘next-generation Touch ID.’
”Opinion: Apple might introduce facial-recognition in future iPhones but fingerprints will remain“
Ben Lovejoy kann sein „in my view“ getrost streichen: Es besteht keine Chance, dass Touch ID – in Form eines Fingerabdrucksensors – in den nächsten Jahren aus dem iPhone fliegt. Alleine für Apple Pay ist es unverzichtbar.
