Two iPhone 13 prototypes have under-display Touch ID, says Jon Prosser
By Stephen Warwick, December 12, 2020.

Jon Prosser has stated in his latest video that Apple has two working iPhone
13 prototypes featuring Touch ID under the display. 

Jon Prosser has confirmed in his latest FPT video that according to sources,
Apple has two iPhone 13 prototypes with Touch ID under the display, despite
previously stating that he personally believed Apple wouldn't go back to the
tech.

It has previously been leaked that Apple might be bringing Touch ID back to
iPhone, and Apple has plenty of patents in its library relating to the tech.
Now, serial Apple leaker, Jon Prosser has confirmed that Apple has not one,
but two iPhone 13 working prototypes with Touch ID under the display.

In his latest FPT video Prosser stated:
"According to my sources, there are currently two working prototypes with
Touch ID under the display panel."

Now, as Prosser rightly notes, the existence of prototypes does not indicate
that Apple will definitely include the feature in the new iPhone, but that
it is at least considering it.

Prosser also noted that the COVID-19 pandemic had highlighted how Face ID
wasn't working very well in the current climate and that it could make sense
for Apple to include the tech despite seemingly moving on from it with Face
ID. He further noted how Apple could use the pandemic as an excuse to bring
back the tech without it looking like Apple was wrong to remove it in favor
of Face ID.

Apple included Touch ID in the top button of its iPad Air, released earlier
this year, a sign that Apple has found a way to incorporate it into the
power button of its devices rather than on the Home Button. The popular
response to this inclusion further highlights how there is definitely a
market for bringing back Touch ID next year.
