Que gnashing of teeth, it'll be on the back....Good question. The bigger question is this, what is the guys reputation? why don't Macrumors actually mention what the persons reputation is like by comparing what they've said vs. what eventually happened? regarding the issue itself, I doubt they'll remove it given it is an iconic feature that they're rolling out to all Apple devices and is also the cornerstone of Apple Pay.
I would be actually happy if this crappy Touch ID goes away. Doesn’t work 70% of the time anyway if your fingers are not perfectly dry.
Try using a Samsung or LG with the fingerprint sensor on the back. It's annoying as heck... especially as my iphone sits on my desk all day. No touchid = no sale.Touch ID has become an integral part of Apple's ecosystem. Getting rid of it would be very controversial.
Having a fingerprint sensor on the back of the phone doesn't seem like the worst thing in the world anymore.
You guys need to show Ming some respect. If ya gotta ask who he is, you know you guys are new to Apple rumor site.
Been here for years and I've no idea who he is, mainly because I've learned to ignore analysts.
No, Mac Rumors had it wrong. KGI is only predicting the touch ID won't be embedded in the display or placed anywhere in front.
1) He said no TouchID embedded in the display, not that there would be no TouchID at all. Macrumors are the ones responsible for the misleading clickbait headline, so perhaps you should be questioning their credibility instead.
He's not just an analyst..he's also a supplier from my understanding.Been here for years and I've no idea who he is, mainly because I've learned to ignore analysts.
Are you suggesting your fingers are wet 70% of the time? Because it works 100% of the time when the fingers are dry. And if they are wet, it doesn't work.
Seriously, Macrumors slow news day?
I thought this was a legitimate rumors web site, not "random person with no inside knowledge just rambles guesses" web/blog posts.
