According to analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, Apple is not satisfied with the current under-screen fingerprint recognition technology experience. “Face ID with the upgrade to work while wearing a mask is still a great biometric solution for Apple,” he said.
Late last year, Kuo once reported that Touch ID under the screen could appear from the iPhone 15. However, the new report is based on the fact that recent studies have “belower than expected development progress”. .
Rumors of Apple starting to learn about the fingerprint sensor under the screen appeared from 2020. Analysts and supply chain then confirmed that Apple was still actively researching but the results were not as expected. In addition to the standard iPhone, Touch ID under the screen is expected to be available on “cheap” versions such as iPhone mini or iPhone SE.
Fingerprint sensor technology under the screen has long been used on many Android phones from Xiaomi, Samsung, Huawei… with two main technologies using ultrasonic or optical sensors. This equipment helps the device to have an ultra-thin screen border design, the back of the device does not need to take up space for the physical sensor. However, many opinions say that the sensitivity of the sensor under the screen is not good, the speed is slow and it is difficult to operate when sticking to the screen or wet hands.
