Long before the official release of iPhone X, there were many supply chain news that: If the technology is not substandard, Apple will use offline fingerprint identification on iPhone X, But ultimately, iPhone X only uses Face ID technology.

Even before the release of iPhone X, there were many strange versions, For example, Apple considered putting the Touch ID on the back or on the side like Sony , but finally gave up because the experience did not conform to the design of the iPhone. Now it seems that this is impossible.

A few days ago, Dan Riccio, Apple's director of hardware engineering, revealed in an interview that since Apple was going to equip the iPhone X with Face ID technology, it had completely abandoned fingerprint recognition!

In addition, the supervisor emphasized that, Apple has never tried to use offline, back and side fingerprint unlocking on iPhone X! The main reason is that biometric technology must be developed, and fingerprints will be eliminated naturally. Apple wants to be the leader of this technology.

From Dan Riccio's words, we should know what Apple will consider on the iPhone in the future. Possible future versions of iPhone X will use fingerprint identification on and off the screen, but face ID, a biotechnology, should be used on the next Apple terminal.
