I'd be surprised. I think their answer to that is buy an Apple Watch and use mask detection/Auto Unlock.
Be nice to have it built into the power button though.
Got a tip for us?

Come on apple 2022. Can you can do better then this? We pay top dollars for all of your devices, and you clearly run us around in circles. lets do something major and give us full control of our devices. Take a note from Samsung. Give us 8-12gb ram no 64gb base and promotion 120hz refresh for all models. What happen too the always on display like the apple watch? Wi-Fi 6E, 48-megapixel main camera all models. Get rid of the notch period..

Best take of this thread so far... My 12Pro has 6Gb of ram. Bump up the Pro's to 8Gb at least!
Why even bother when the software doesn’t have the capacity to take advantage of all that memory. Apple needs to completely redesign iOS and turn it into a modern mobile OS not something that is practically the same as 15 years ago.
$799 14 128GB
$899 14 Max 128GB
$1099 Pro 256GB
$1199 Pro Max 256GB
The Pro starting at 256GB means there is no price rise, they just got rid of the 128GB tier. Which make sense, I have long argued with 5G, and other component cost on the rise, iPhone 12 should have had the price bump, but then we had the pandemic and Apple wasn't so sure about the price rise. And the same with iPhone 13.
iPhone 14 price stays the same, the 14 Max is a new SKUs that just sits on top of 14.
This also means that for the iPhone 13.
$599 13 mini
$699 13
$899 14 Max 128GB
$1099 Pro 256GB
$1199 Pro Max 256GB

In 2022 it might be more difficult to get 60hz displays instead of 120hz ones because it’s already more or less the standard in the Android world and especially for the Oled display manufacturers like Samsung and LG.
Yes definitely agree on this, 120 Mhz refresh rate is not a ‘Pro’ feature at all considering budget £300-£400 Android phones have it as standard. Variable Refresh rate displays are on the more mid range to flagship Android phones though, so maybe this is what Apple will use to differentiate the regular and pro iphone models.
Could be difficult as well because when you let the display run continuously with 120hz it consumes more battery but the overall feeling is even more fluid compared to the variable refresh rate.
This would be hard to explain why the non-pro is more fluid as the pro.
Won’t happen. Probably the 14 will be limited to 90hz or something like that.
That makes sense. However, ProMotion isn't just 120hz, it's the variable refresh rate. I suppose 120hz could be brought to the lower end devices without the variable refresh, if that helped keep costs down.
Pls see my comment just above yours.
I don’t think that this will happen.
Is 120hz really that big a deal to people? I didn’t even notice the change from my Xs max to my 13 pro max
I very much like your take on this, they might give the regular iPhones 14 120 hz but they will keep the variable refresh rate for the pro models, or maybe they will give the standard iPhones 90 hz?
To me it is, that and better battery life than the current iPhone 12 I use are the main reasons I'd upgrade
I feel like the branding of “iPhone” is just too strong for them to name it anything different.
iPhone and the corresponding number will probably continue until iPhone 20 and beyond.
ProMotion Now Expected to Remain Exclusive to iPhone 14 Pro Models, Not Expand to Entire Lineup
Continuing the tradition set with the iPhone 13 Pro, only the highest-end iPhone 14 models will feature Apple's ProMotion display technology, according to a respected display analyst. Ross Young, who on multiple occasions has detailed accurate information about Apple's future products, said...
