iPhone 5S may include fingerprint sensor and NFC

4.6

Its appears that Apple may be adding NFC and fingerprint technology into the iPhone 5S with a report suggesting that the company will use the fingerprint sensor to improve the security of NFC features such as payment handling.

China Times has reported that Chipbond,a chinese chipmaker , was selected by Apple to manufacture these components for use in the iPhone 5S.

Foxconn has also seemingly started production on the iPhone 5S and are preparing to really step up manufacturing, according to Macotakara, which has previously provided accurate details in that past. Macotakara also reports that leading Japanese carrier NTT DoCoMo may finally begin selling the iPhone with the release of the 5S.

xIIJazza iPhone 5s Oh thats cool :L something new please.. Apple you're dropping


Exactly the reason im getting the Galaxy S4.


I think the S4 will sell a lot more than the 5S. Although apple does have a lot of people who won't ever buy a phone which isn't made by apple.


I agree, apple is just making the same product and changing little things.
Well that's Apple for you. Lots of people will buy products made by Apple mainly because most people love their products, although it's roughly just the same with little features added to the next phone.


Maybe they need a big change like this to attract more buyers.


I don't think this is a big change. They should have put the NFC chip in the iPhone 5 and the fingerprint scanner is pointless. They need to come up with new features. Like the eye tracking camera that Samsung are putting in the S4.

But they can get away with it because people will still buy the product.
