April 12 news, since the release of the iPhone X in 2017 has now passed 5 years, the much-criticized "Liu Haiping" has gradually become a symbol feature of the iPhone.
The good news is that apple has recently been approved for a face ID patent under the screen, which once made many consumers feel uncomfortable "Liu Haiping" will soon become a thing of the past.
From the published patent diagram, we can find that in order to remove the "bangs design", Apple will put the front camera and the deep sense camera module behind the display, which is also the mainstream solution of the current Android screen camera technology.
Although the patent introduction shows that Apple's technology can hide the Face ID module under the screen, so that the screen is displayed normally while facial recognition can also work as usual. But it also means that Apple needs to solve the imaging problems that currently exist in the under-screen camera technology.
According to the news of well-known analyst Guo Mingxi, the iPhone 14 series to be released this year will not use the face ID design under the screen. Apple plans to adopt this technology on the iPhone 16 series released in 2024, which means that we will have to wait at least 2 years.
