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.

Thatch Im going to stay with my 5


Should've waited and got the 5S, we all knew it was coming soon after xD


Yes we did, iPhones come out left and right.


Do you have full blown retarded mode enabled? Apple release ONE PHONE PER YEAR. Now just tell me how thats left right and centre, if they didnt then they would be out dated and you would complain at that, not to mention how often Samsung brings out new phones, they bring out multiple a year, just apple focuses its efforts into one and keeps it updated, once per year, not left right and centre....
