A new video that has leaked today allegedly shows the front of the upcoming iPhone 8 that Apple is expected to release in September before going on sale in October.
The front panel confirms what we've already heard about the device, indicating that Apple is indeed working on a bezel-less display with a top sensor bar that will house the front cameras.
And we use the plural because chances are there will be more than just one camera, as Apple is expected to launch the iPhone 8 with iris and facial recognition as well.
If legit, this front panel also confirms that the home button will go to Apple's upcoming iPhone 8, so now there are fewer options for the fingerprint sensor: Cupertino will install it either under the display for easy one-touch unlocking, or on the back of the phone in typical Android fashion.
Chances are that this is the built-in version, as more and more sources seem to point to a new approach that Samsung also seems to be working on for its future flagships.
But while Apple is very close to perfecting the technology to integrate the fingerprint reader into the display, Samsung needs more time to do it and the latest speculation in this regard seems to point to a new delay in early 2018 for a Samsung with this feature.
A third but very unlikely possible location for the fingerprint sensor is the power button, as some patents have suggested, although the chances of this happening are very small.
The new iPhone 8 is expected to launch alongside two other models called the iPhone 7s and iPhone 7s Plus, both of which are upgraded versions of the current generation and feature more subtle improvements.
