It's already on the iPhone X and it will be coming to all the new iPhone flagships this year as well.
What about Face ID?įace ID for the MacBook and MacBook Pro seems like something that has to arrive sooner rather than later.
Love the way you think! Touch Bar is begging for Force Touch, but it's unclear if the technology is ready for the next generation of MacBook Pro or MacBook. Otherwise, fingers crossed Apple can figure out how to save a few dollars elsewhere and get Touch ID in and under budget. It's possible Apple could do what it did with MacBook Pro and offer MacBook (Escape) and MacBook (Touch Bar) options, the former with traditional function keys, the latter with OLED. The only reason it might not is price point: It requires a secure, dedicated processing and display system - think embedded Apple Watch just for Apple Pay - so it adds about $200-$300 to the bill. Touch ID, on the other hand, is such a convenience on the 2016 MacBook Pro that not expanding it to all other portable Macs would be a letdown. So, will Apple stick with Touch Bar the way the company did with USB-C, and push it out across the line? Or will Apple retrench and rethink its approach to touch? We'll have to wait and see. Touch Bar has proven to be divisive: Apple anticipated high attraction levels for Touch Bar, but while some people like it, many others do not. Touch ID on the MacBook Pro (Image credit: iMore)
