Many Android phones do it this way, but Apple allegedly had other plans.

    if they dont put that 'cool' finger print under the screen but follow the same what LG's
    been doing for years as well as Amoled screen like Samsung then they better keep the price the same.... if not good luck

      Hahaha Reading all the comments here talking about the Apple Logo should be the fingerprint. They don't realize is in the back and when Samsung did it that was the worst thing ever made it on the phone making the phone unused or hard to manage. But if apple use the Apple logo in the BACK that will be great Hahahaha

          This can't be real. Probably chinese clone. The wireless charger can't work with this back.

            This is fake, you heard it here first

                Like 80% of any phone comment on here or YouTube will always state how ugly it is.

You said if you can't have it under the display then put it on the back in the logo, but that is a compromise. You don't want to compromise , yet you do?!? Are you telling the truth about your profession?

                        All this is speculation by market analysts and a lot of so called leaks. Something might stick though.

                          The circle would be a gap so that wireless charging can pass through that metal and fingerprint scanner will be under the display, on apple logo or on the power button on the sides. Apple definitely wouldn't do that ugly thingy. Lol we all know how ugly iphone 7 when it leaks but when it was announced and released it wasn't that ugly. In fact all china phones now copy iphones dual cam design and the antenna lines. Lol

                            No, 20 Jul 2017They can put the fingerprint at the back, but why add anoth... moreExactly right use the apple logo as the sensor(if the tech isnt read for under oled detection then forgo it, pure and simple. Never compromise. This is the only solution we came up with in the product design class I teach at the university. From one British designer to another I think Jonathan Ive been at apple too long sometime stepping away from the table can result in better results when an individual comes back. Point in case Job's himself.

                              iPhone 8 with a touch id at the back?? That could be real or no...the power button could be the Siri button just like the Bibxy button on the S8.

                                If only they placed the sensor in the Apple logo, with blinking lights

                                  They can put the fingerprint at the back, but why add another hole? Just use the Apple logo.

                                      Apple never listens to the fans.. The fingerprint sensor should've been embedded in the Apple logo.. Stupid designers these days..
