iPhone 7 with touch home button can be launched thanks to LG

Last week, a first rumor appeared suggesting that iPhone 7 with touch home button is to be launched by the Apple company in the fall of this year, the removal of the Home button contributing to the manufacture of a iPhone 7 water and dust resistant.

This rumor is reinforced by new information that appeared during this day, this one telling us that LG managed to develop a new fingerprint reader that is able to fit under the screen of a smartphone, the technology being successfully tested by the Koreans.

divided Innotek those from LG has realized this technology and according to the information, fingerprint reading would be done as well as in the case of using a fingerprint reader mounted in a standard button, so removing the Home button of the iPhone would be entirely possible.

iPhone 7 with touch button possible thanks to LG

Innotek is one of Apple's partners that provides screens for iDevices, and if Apple will really launch a iPhone 7 with touch home button, then there are very high chances of having tested the new technology from LG, or of using it in their future product.

The new module is expected to drastically reduce any smartphone malfunctions, as it does not require a specific button for fingerprint recognition. We are in talks with some handset manufacturers to commercialize the new modules within the year.

Those from LG have confirmed that the technology is finalized and that they are already talking with certain partners for implementation in smartphones that would be launched on the market next year, so the inclusion in iPhone 7 is plausible, the smartphone to be launched on the market in more than 4 months.

Un iPhone 7 with tactile Home button, water and dust resistant it would be very interesting for users, especially if it brings other improvements that will convince users that it is worth upgrading, but it remains to be seen what Apple will do this year.

  1. it would be interesting to have some changes to the iphone in the near future...anyway, it will be sold no matter if it has news or not...!!!

  2. Why do you necessarily need a touch button, under the screen, for the phone to be resistant to dust and water?: Others have done it with a mechanical button and even with removable back covers. Basically, it's just a garnish.

  3. Cica will sell anyway regardless of whether it has news or not, well it will sell a lot thanks to sheep like you who have this mentality! God save the saint from people dynasty?

  4. Good luck with LG because it was a pity for Apple, .... Isn't that crazy? First, LG needs to solve the problems with the Android operating system that crashes when your world is dearer, bigger than usual, that is, the touch button manufacturer, although it's not their Inventica, but the phone is dust, that's the way it is and the occasion for those who do not understand

  5. iPhone has become an old man's phone... After the design no longer showed anything new, after the materials used became common, after even iOS no longer works as expected, it's time for a change. From Apple to Samsung.

  6. Quality at Apple? ;))) Come on, you didn't get it here, I've seen Apple's quality so you know, iphone 5/5s paint chipped, obvious scratches on the back right out of the box, iphone SE the same, iphone 6/6 plus last year you used them on the job boomerang and razor, because the quality at Apple is the best ;))) and the trolls here accused Samsung of murder with the scratched home button, but they didn't look in Apple's yard
    Anyway, the S7 brought more news than Apple to the iPhone in 5 years...that is, what has Apple brought so far? A bigger screen and a different design SO much... big innovations what can I say ;)))

  7. George...I had many Galaxys, every time I called Samsung Romania to change it because nothing was working on it after a few days of use...is this a phone?
    On the other hand, theoretically the iPhone 6S has an A9 chip with a triple-core processor and 2 GB of DDR4 RAM compared to the iPhone 6 which has an A8 chip with a dual-core processor and 1 GB of RAM...
    Another thing, the 6s has a 12MP camera compared to 8MP, respectively 5MP and 2MP...4k integrated.
    ?A 3D Touch that really helps you in your everyday life with numerous needs.
    ?A much better fingerprint reader
    Do you really think that Apple hasn't brought anything new? Or if you keep commenting like that, shut up, brother Samsung...

  8. I do not deny the problems of the Samsung galaxy terminals, nor those of the idevices, but the phase is that you can call the Samsung representative, but not the Apple representative because IOS 9.3 does not let you call
    Does it break down after a few days of use? People still lie, but not like you, I mean, let's be serious, you throw stones at Samsung, but IOS won't let you call, or the iPhone 6 bends when you use it and has terrible lag... Is this an 800 euro phone? You leave me with the plea
    And you call this news on iPhone 6s? These are trivial things implemented by ANY smartphone manufacturer, trifles
    What can we say about S7 or G5 then
    S7
    -improved screen
    -Dual Sim hybrid support
    -Dual Pixel 12 mp camera (exclusive technology)
    -cooling system
    -Always on display
    G5
    -modular system (innovation)
    -dual room
    - auto focus hybrid
    - modular accessories
    Compared to the 2 "novelties" brought by the iPhone 6s, they are ridiculous
    By the way, you see that the iPhone 6s has a dual core processor, not a triple core....and how does force touch adjust to many activities?

  9. George, 8 weeks it was still in vodafone Galaxy S4 service, I called Samsung, I sent it to them and they sent me back that Vodafone has to change the phone because it doesn't work anymore. I received the same phone, and after two hours fixed the previous problem.

    And 3D Touch helps me every day and I use it for absolutely all possible shortcuts.

    But you know, George, when you don't have 6s, the world wakes up like this to comment on the anapoda without ever holding it in hand.

  10. This is very true, Andrei, and I'm tempted to switch to the Galaxy S7 just for the camera it has and for the function of allowing you to have more applications on the screen... But after the bad experiences with a Samsung, it's a bit bitter on my tongue to I go to him...

  11. they shouldn't necessarily need it, but probably sealing the phone against moisture/liquid would be a better idea, plus the failure rate of the mechanical button is higher and hence various problems and costs for Apple when the Touch ID needs to be replaced ,... by default the whole board... so it's simpler with a touch button.. let's see if for us users it will be a step forward or backward or it will be the same use without effects of any kind....

  12. they will sell because they are still extremely strongly implemented in the global market and with each new series brought they sell better than they sold the previous series...
    not all who use iphone are sheep, but simply users who prefer this brand with what it brings to the detriment of other brands on the market....

  13. Yes, yes, yes the classic story for a few years now
    "I had ALL the Galaxy terminals and absolutely ALL of them broke, (peak in a few days) I got my iphone and I'm super satisfied, Samsung is rubbish"
    You don't have to tell me that I already know it, the eternal classic excuse... and how do you know that I didn't get my hands on a 6s? Are you Nostradamus?
    Did I find myself commenting on the anapoda? Did I lie in the comments above somehow? If so, I want arguments, not clairvoyant predictions
    You haven't got your hands on an S7 and you're talking nonsense, because it didn't bring anything new and brought the iPhone, inserting some specifications as news... you're talking strictly from the balls

  14. Well, dad, let me explain to you how things are, step by step
    - there are people who don't like iPhones, but there are also people who own different phones
    - you say it's your business what you like and what you don't, I think you've seen comments against the iPhone, you're right, but if you've been following this site for a while you'll see that it's not like that
    Apple fans here (and in general) have a tendency to blame other users of another platform, to dramatize, to lie excessively, to change their wishes 180 degrees, etc...as you can see, it seems that it's not everyone's business (eg: only poor people buy android because they don't have money for iphone)
    -iphone is in power (but now it has fallen short) thanks to the android "garbage" (companies), these are blamed by Apple fans because without them there would be no iphone
    You can have more money than 10 countries at once, factories and manufacturing processes, technology in general are not built overnight...so goodbye iphone
    Honestly, if the other companies let Apple build their own iPhone, just like Samsung does with their own smartphones, do you think they could do it without their rivals' technologies...NO
