New functions added to iPhone SE (3rd generation) !? Possibility of adding sensors as seen from the protective film image (March 5, 2022) –Excite News

Since Apple decided to hold an online event on March 9, Japan time, “iPhone The reality of the appearance of “SE (3rd generation, tentative name)” has increased at a stretch. Meanwhile, leak information on new peripheral accessories is drawing a lot of attention.

The iPhone SE (3rd generation) may be equipped with a new sensor that did not exist in the “iPhone SE (2nd generation)”!

iPhone SE (3rd generation) peripheral accessory image leaked

TwitterResearcher Majin Bu (@MajinBuOfficial) provided the shocking leak information above. In his tweet posted on March 2, the image of the main body case and protective film, which is said to be from the iPhone SE (3rd generation), is released. The main body case is available in 5 colors: black, red, white (transparent), dark green, and gray. The protective film has a similar structure to the iPhone SE (2nd generation).

By the way, the “home button”, which has been attracting attention in some areas, seems to be alive and well from the hole at the bottom of the protective film. Equipped with a home button means that it also has a fingerprint authentication “Touch ID” function. That’s pretty good news for users who want Touch ID to come back.

Meanwhile, Majin Bu pays attention to the number of holes in the sensor at the top of the screen. There are three sensor holes in the released protective film, which were two in the existing iPhone SE (2nd generation). Why on earth …

new function? Face ID?What are the new functions?

The iPhone SE (2nd generation) has two sensors, a “proximity sensor” and an “ambient light sensor,” installed at the top of the screen. According to Apple officials, the iPhone SE (2nd generation) also had a “Touch ID fingerprint authentication sensor,” “barometer,” “3-axis gyro,” and “acceleration sensor,” with a total of six sensors. .. In other words, there is a high probability that something other than these will be added. By the way, it can be confirmed from Apple official that even the latest “iPhone 13” is equipped with the same sensor except that Touch ID is face authentication “Face ID”.

It’s tempting to expect “new features !?”, but when you think about it calmly, the iPhone SE series is basically a low-priced model. If I’m an Apple developer, I’d probably want to make a spectacular debut with a numbering model for new features. Therefore, I would like to exclude the possibility of new functions once this time.

Then, is it possible to install Face ID as an existing function? According to Apple’s official website, Face ID’s feature is to project thousands of infrared dots from a “TrueDepth camera” to analyze the shape of the face. The shape on the far right of the three holes is slightly wider, which may be due to the fact that the light emitting part and the light receiving part are lined up. However, if that happens, will Face ID and Touch ID coexist in the biometric authentication function?AndroidsmartphoneSome models have both fingerprint and face recognition, but it may be epoch-making if it is realized on the iPhone.

The truth of the “mystery of the third hole” will be revealed on March 9. I’d like to wait for the official appearance of the iPhone SE (3rd generation).
