Highly accurate leaker Ross Young admitted that he mistakenly tweeted yesterday that under-display Face ID was coming next year.
Display Supply Chain Consultants (DSCC) founder and CEO Russ Young published a roadmap back in April 2023 that called for the iPhone 17 Pro series to be released with under-display Face ID by 2025. The hope was that by moving Face ID under the display, bezels could be made even thinner. By 2027, the iPhone 19 Pro series could have no cutouts on the display and feature an all-screen design (more on that later).
This past May, Young responded to a question on «X» by stating that he had heard that Apple was pushing the under-display design for Face ID back to 2026 when it would debut on the iPhone 18 Pro models. So it seemed strange when Ross posted a tweet on Thursday, September 19th, stating that the iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max will have under-display Face ID.
