Report Bezel Free Display One of the iPhone 6 Attributes
iPhone 6 concept with EYE ID retinal scanner.
There are not significant details about the future iPhone in the report, contrary the Galaxy S5, just few sentences noting that Apple is working on a "similar" prototype with bezel-free display and fingerprint sensor. The report also claims that the next Galaxy phone will be even slimmer, as Samsung plans to use a new panel technology that would further trim the depth of the phone.
“Scanning fingerprints on the entire screen, which was much talked about recently, will be available in the latter half of this year as there are still technological hurdles to overcome,” [the source] added, hinting that the production yield for the full-screen fingerprint scanner is still far from satisfactory.Samsung is said to have been working on the bezel-free technology since 2012 under the project codenamed Project B or Galaxy B.
The source said that Samsung’s top rival Apple is also testing a similar prototype sporting a bezel-less screen that features a fingerprint scanner.
Some critics are concerned that a bezel-free display would make the device too vulnerable to external impact, perhaps the sapphire glass will change these fears!
