Schiphzl AirPort?
Where is that?
I do know Schiphol, thats Amsterdam, The Netherlands
Digitimes...
Are you serious MacRumors?
They literally make **** up
No - please make iris scanning an additional form of security NOT a replacement for fingerprints.
Yes your right but only in terms of how Samsung have implemented Iris scanning on a mobile. However let us look back to before the iPhone 5S was released. Apple had bought a company named Authentec who made fingerprint scanners etc. People on sites such as this one all said that Apple could not make a fingerprint scanner for the iPhone. They all pointed out how other firms had tried including Motorola.

Any idea how many folk reading this own Samsung and Apple products.. are they all deluded fools?Yep, the fact that Samsung sells 100,000,000 more phones that Apple each year just means that many people are deluded fools who don't realized they're buying a crappy kluge that doesn't work.
The poor deluded souls making themselves suffer because of their own ignorance.
Do you really see a high end iris scanner implementation in an iPhone?
I don't. Cost prohibitive.
...but there are also drawbacks such as poor functionality in low lighting and issues with performance following alcohol consumption and eye surgery.
Man, if this is true Apple will be releasing their version of the Samsung Galaxy S6 in 2017. Then the 2018 model will be their Note 7. I love iCloud and iOS but hardware trailing 2 years behind is getting frustrating.
Maybe.
You can't change physics - iris scanners usually use UV cameras and they are bulky compared to visible light cameras (eg B2I Biometrics Iris scanner for iPhone 4 called MORIS)
Getting iris scanning to work in thin form factor devices is goo to take some engineering & some compromise
Imagine someone going to a Halloween party or ComicCon with funky contacts (say, the cat eye ones) and... they can't use their phone at all for the duration.Intresting. I wonder how this would work with those with different colored eyes?
That's why those who are truly thinking ahead add their nose to TouchID.Edit: sure if both of your hands accidentally fall off maybe then it could be of use.. Though it may be difficult using an iPhone without any hands
Five years ago my brother had a laptop with an iris scanner, and it was like something out of an old episode of Get Smart - every time he opens his laptop, minutes and minutes of leaning over the machine repeatedly, taking his glasses off, adjusting position, turning on room lights, carrying the laptop to a brighter room... Meanwhile I typed my long, complex, password on my MacBook Pro in two seconds. Apple has a pretty good track record of waiting until they can get tech to work well before adding it to their hardware (like TouchID), rather than racing to add another (half-implemented) bullet point to the product marketing the way a lot of other companies do.Right now the Note 7's scanner doesn't play nice with glasses, contacts, puffy eyes, narrowed eyes, poor lighting conditions, bright lighting conditions, and must be a certain distance away from your eyes or it will do something not very nice to your eyeballs. So basically I have a better chance of turning into a werewolf than I have of it working for me.![]()
I hear the 2023 iPhone will be truly magnificent.This, so much this!
Just so much of awesome stuff is expected on 2017 and now 2018 models.![]()
An excuse to get rid of the home button... Great!
Nah, you want the model that comes with the trepanation kit to install the harmless brain electrochemical activity authentication sensor inside your skull.Wait a few more years for the one that pricks your finger and DNA test you to verify identity. And glucose levels.

I DO NOT WANT AN AUDIO JACK STUCK IN MY EYE. In that case I'd prefer the iris scanner, thanks Much more non-invasive.So. Who here prefers an iris scanner to a 3.5" audio jack?
