Since the components needed to power Face ID are relatively expensive, some early reports suggested Apple would adopt in-display Touch ID to create a more affordable iPhone model for emerging markets. Speculation for how Apple would go about this has run the gamut. However, none of these have ever come to fruition in an actual product. Over the past few years, many rumors have suggested that Apple is also working on in-display fingerprint sensors. While Apple put all its efforts into Face ID, rival smartphone makers instead looked for ways to put the fingerprint sensor under the display to eliminate the need for a physical button. Face ID is a premium feature that works amazingly well for most iPhone owners, and Apple doesn’t want to dilute the elegance of Face ID by adding a fingerprint sensor into the mix. It appears Apple prefers to stick with Face ID on its higher-end phones and tablets, only falling back to Touch ID fingerprint sensors in those products where it needs to cut corners to make them more affordable. Touch ID is necessary on the mid-tier iPad models because they lack Face ID the higher-end iPad Pro has a design that’s very similar to the iPad Air, but since it has Face ID, there’s no need for a Touch ID sensor. While Apple could have moved the fingerprint sensor to the side button, as it’s done on the iPad Air and iPad Mini, it’s clear Apple doesn’t see the need for more than one biometric authentication system. Whether you buy the iPhone 14, iPhone 14 Plus, iPhone 14 Pro, or iPhone 14 Pro Max, you’ll only find Face ID - no Touch ID fingerprint sensor. There is no fingerprint sensor on any version of the iPhone 14. Since then, Face ID has been the sole biometric authentication system used on every mainstream iPhone model, including the entire iPhone 14 lineup.
