I'm thinking that if you move the Touch ID sensor farther from my dry fingers that would/could make it worse. MY iPhone 13PM works wonderfully with Face ID. My 10.5 and 12.9 iPad pros (older models that have Touch ID) do not function much this time of year, sadly.Would you prefer Under-Screen Touch ID on an iPhone?
That's what users said when iPhone 13 Pro's notch became smaller and reports wrote that it would be gone just the following year. And after only 1 year, the next flagship namely iPhone 14 Pro adopted Dynamic Island... They were right!
Just give be an AR enabled iMonocle.
Oh, and I’m sure a case manufacturer would be happy to release an Over9000 case for it, for added funs!(Just don’t crush it please!)
It’s follows young’s rumoured timeline with the iPhone going completely full screen by 2016.
I am still debating whether to update my iPhone 12 Pro max next year. But the rumoured changes is a move in the right direction.
As the dynamic island is simply a gimmick to hide a notch which is still technically there.

Does that work well. I've read on some it isn't that great. I like my Touch on Power which works very well for meWould you prefer Under-Screen Touch ID on an iPhone?
2024? Great! It's only been 7 years since we were promised an edge-to-edge screen with an under-screen display.
It’s called being a nerd. Liking technology does not mean I spent 24/7 in front of it 🙄
so dynamic island gimlick is going to last just one year, that's exactly the amount of time public need to get tired of this make up for the blank pill in your screen.
I would love to see an iPhone with a fingerprint sensor on the side and a full screen, I bet you all the money I'm carry right now on my left pocket that the vast majority would choose just
"take the phone and voile! already unlocked in home screen"
VS
"take the phone, look at it, swipe, and yes! you are there!"
I mean, holding your phone in your pocket to taking it out, unlocking it in the trip to your face is impossible to beat vs face ID and the extra step swipe. PLUS you only would have a punch hole in the screen.
"but a fingerprint reader in the side of the phone!!?? that sounds weird!! who holds the phone from the side?...." 101% of the population on Earth and pretty sure that even in other planets.
OK, OK, Face ID is fast enough and you are got use to it.... I get it, but as Steve Jobs said "public doesn't know what they want, you have to decide for them"

Why one year? The space between the pill and hole now is already artificially black, there’s nothing preventing them from having a pill shaped space that’s also artificially black around a hole camera.
Wow, people, what is so hard to understand? Dynamic Island isn't going away and nor is the visibility of the front facing camera. It'll probably be a hole punch like we've seen on many other phones. I can't help but feel many either over think things or under think anymore...
I know, i appreciate that. I Like to know will be “around the corner” for sure, especially with software and fixes etc I Just did not expect rumours about hardware two years in advance, I just need to ignore it or stop coming on. I know
I think the Dynamic Island will be here for awhile. Though if they actually can move FaceID under the screen that would be great.
Well it's kind of an interesting speculation. Apple creates this wiz bang island feature as an innovative way to distract you from an unsightly holdover while display technology evolves. If they now have the capability to ditch this big unsavory pill thing, what do they do with that distraction to which users have now become accustomed? I'm sure they'll have an elegant approach but we can only speculate what that might be.
Should reduce the size of cut out. Dynamic Island may be able to display more information in the future.
Makes sense. Narrower island in 2024, no island 2026 on the Pro (2027 all models). That’s 5 years for the Dynamic Island, same lifespan as the notch.
Hopefully we see tighter radii and thinner bezels by 2026. ALL display would be nice - each upgrade is feeling smaller. 12PM > 14PM is barely noticeable to me.

Also, you forgot to mention the new anti-gravity button planned for iPhone 16 pro, which will be available on all models of iPhone 17.
