iPhone lets be real with the biometric sensor

Evidence of a FP scanner is limited and not even one solid leak to confirm.

You don't consider code in the iOS 7 betas a "solid leak"?

if it was coming, apple would've mentioned it during wwdc with ios7

Why would they have done that? Ever heard of the Osborne effect?

No, what is it.

Don't apologize, just ignore him. He's being ignorant.

I'm trying to be helpful. How is telling someone they made a mistake bad?

AuthenTec is a division of Apple Inc (not a subcontractor like Pegatron), meaning they are manufacturing the sensor internally, hence no leaks. Apple cannot control the security of its subcontractors but it sure as hell can (and does) control its own.

I really hope Apple isn't going the way of Samsung with these unnecessary gimmicks.

Apple sets expectations as well as any company ever. If it wasn't going to happen they would have leaked it weeks ago. There would have been a WSJ article citing "sources from within Apple" and a headline that read:

"Fingerprint sensors not likely for next iPhone, sources say"

They wouldn't let it linger and risk articles being written about how disappointing it is that it's not there.
