Apple's second-generation iPhone Duo might feature Face ID technology, according to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman. In his latest Power On podcast, Gurman revealed that Apple is testing hardware for the foldable iPhone, which is set to launch next fall. However, the company has not confirmed if the feature will be included in the final product.
The existing iPhone Duo relies on a side-mounted fingerprint sensor, similar to the iPad, and the limited space within its slim design hinders the placement of depth-sensing components for Face ID. This prototype development seems to be a more concrete step towards Gurman's earlier speculation about future iPhone Duo improvements.
In September, he suggested that advanced components and AI could enable Face ID and a dedicated telephoto camera in the third generation. Additionally, Apple is contemplating an Action button for future iPhone Duos, which is currently absent in the latest model. The first iPhone Duo will be released tomorrow with a starting price of $1,999.
