Tech blog TechKiddy has revealed the latest spy shots of iPhone 5S components, but there seems to be no sign of a fingerprint scanner. However, previous media reports suggested that the fingerprint recognition function might rely on the phone screen as a medium.
According to the leaked spy shots, the SIM card slot of the iPhone 5S is completely identical to that of the iPhone 5. In addition, the spy shots also reveal many detailed information about the components of the iPhone 5S, including the charger interface, camera, WiFi, and vibration module.
However, surprisingly, the spy shots of the Home button components indicate that this product does not seem to have adopted a fingerprint scanner. Nevertheless, the previous iOS 7 code showed that this system would support biometric technology, which is very likely related to fingerprint scanning.
The authenticity of these spy shots cannot currently be determined, but industry insiders believe that Apple may release the iPhone 5S on the 18th of the month.
