Alleged iPhone 5S User Guide Photo Highlights Fingerprint Sensor As 'Touch ID'

I really hope not. It's iconic. :apple:

Maybe it lights up after a confirmed touch ID?

I just want something on/around that homebutton to blink, dammit!! :D If it can't be the ring, then have it at least be the square!
 
So, I wonder when iOS7 will be released to the public. Based on some recent shipment rumors, I wouldn't be surprised if the 5C and 5S phones are available for purchase in the Apple stores, and online store, well before the much rumored Sep 20 date. iOS7 would have to come first though.
 
I'm beginning to think "Double Down On Secrecy" was the password to the secret vaults.

Touch ID. Sounds like this button has a ring to it....

Tim Cook liked it, so he put a ring on it.

(Uh oh oh, oh oh ohhhhhh oh oh)

I'm so glad we got rid of skeuomorphism because otherwise the camera icon would literally be a camera the likes of which most people will never, ever buy again. But it's gone because we have bubbles for Game Center.
 
I guess calling it a "Touch ID" stops scaring people off its real identity, something that scans your fingerprint.

that would be cool, if we are not seeing the square because it appears as a led when pressing the button and lights up for notifications.
 
doesn't matter if Apple is not the first to bring the finger print scanner or not...... they will POPULARIZE it ;)

My money is ready for a 5S!
 
Dam, it is confirmed to have the same small screen. Not that it was expected, I was just hopeful.
 
its gonna sound like a complaint, but i'm not even excited about tomorrow anymore. I mean, what else is there to show? It's a "leak confirmation announcement" more than anything else.
 
Does everyone else see the crosshatch pattern on the background? I had assumed it would be a solid color, but I'm glad it's not.
 
Looking forward to Jonathan Ive explaining the new silver ring design in upcoming 5s introduction video.

"...never before have we built a product with such an extraordinary silver ring!"

Can't wait to hear the preposterous name Samsung decides to call this feature in their next smartphone...

Samsung Smart Square Finger Scanner Touch Whiz Galaxy Nebula Technology, probably.

More interesting than the name will be the size of it. It will be a 3 inches scanner, where you can put your full hand.

Least exciting new iPhone release ever?

Much more than the iPhone 5 :/ all it had was LTE half inch taller screen and faster processor
But nothing special
5S would have special features to it
Tomorrow we will find out
I think it will be the biggest S update ever
It's pretty much an iPhone 6 without the bigger screen. But it's okay as long as they make the screen more gamut
