It wouldn't be surprising if Apple increased production of the iPhone Duo because of demand, but a new report is conflating two different figures to conclude that there's been a great increase. Being able to open to different degrees requires a hinge design that is complex to manufacture in volume. Apple has called the demand for the iPhone Duo "extraordinary," and vowed to do all it could to fulfil orders quickly. Unsurprisingly, then, Digitimes is reporting that Apple has increased its order for the iPhone Duo by around 44%.

A new report claims that not only is Apple aiming to add Face ID to a future iPhone Duo , but that it may not need a notch or cutout. Future iPhone Duo models may add under-display Face ID to the front screen. While the first iPhone Duo appears to be something of a hit, it is lacking the key Face ID feature from other iPhones . It would be startling if Apple weren't working to add this, but according to Bloomberg , it's coming . Specifically, it will come as soon as the next generation of the iPhone Duo. It is to be Face ID as we know it, but the sensor will be under the display. Rumor Score: 🤔 Possible Continue Reading on AppleInsider | Discuss on our Forums
