Is this the Iphones fingerprint reader? - Mobile

Apple has confirmed that it will launch the new iPhone on Tuesday, but until then there is still time to speculate. One of the rumors buzzed that iPhone 5S will be equipped with a fingerprint reader for logging and perhaps even to use the cell phone to make payments. The rumor arose when a perspicacious person surveyed IOS Beta 7 and found a file named BiometricKitUI that contained code to set up the fingerprint reader on an Iphone.

It has been speculated that it is the home button to do double service as fingerprint readers, and today’s leaked image confirms in all cases there is SOMETHING fishy about the Home button on the iPhone 5S. The picture is said to show the electronics for Home button on iPhone 5s. Where the Home button below the shell of an iPhone 5 basically just consists of a cable with connectors are there on the alleged iPhone 5s button a series of electronics attached to the cord. The square part is believed to be power to the fingerprint reader.

Given that it also spins rumors phones with fingerprint scanner from LG and HTC, this may be the fall’s mobile trend.
