You know features that MacBooks and iPhones never had. In the past weeks, “Why did the pen feature never exist on iPhones?” In our content named Steve Jobs, we also talked about the features that did not come from his great words. But now the situation is a bit complicated. It is not clear whether MacBooks have the long-awaited Face ID feature or just a fad. Here are the details…
Face ID patent is also taken for MacBook!
Recently, we received a reader’s comment that MacBooks are increasingly becoming iPhones. It is debatable how accurate this statement is, but if we need to refer to the fact that MacBooks have iPhone features, it is quite correct to use this statement. Because every day, we see devices that take many features from each other.
For MacBooks, we can say that the security feature that has been expected for years is finally coming. However, it is useful to continue by stating that it is only a possibility from the beginning, because Apple is a company that likes to take a lot of patents. So it’s highly likely that we won’t see a Face ID scanner on MacBooks for the next few generations.
Touch ID fingerprint lock, which entered our lives with iPhones, later came to iPads and MacBooks. With the iPhone X, which was released in the future, Face ID technology started to take place in our lives and face scanning lock gained popularity. Face ID, which was highly appreciated by users, was also included in later iPhone models. And now, users expect the Face ID feature to be included in MacBooks like Touch ID.
When we come to the facts, Apple actually got these patents 6 years ago, when the iPhone 8 was introduced. Face ID entered our lives with the iPhone X, which was released after the iPhone 8, but it could not come to the MacBooks. Although the newly obtained patents say that things are going in this direction, it would still be best not to wait for this old-new feature in the next MacBook model.
