MacRumors reports today on more apparent leaks of iPhone 8 component images, as well as a rather unlikely looking video that it is claimed shows an iPhone 8 with a rear Touch ID sensor undergoing quality control testing.
First off we have the photo of what is said to be a 3D sensing camera module for the iPhone 8. The image originally appeared on Chinese microblogging website Weibo, as did a new video that is said to show an Apple iPhone with a rear Touch ID sensor going through quality control.
While the first image is most likely a genuine part, the video is less convincing, especially with all the most recent rumours debunking earlier reports that the iPhone 8 would have rear Touch ID. The phone shown in the video could of course be either an iPhone 7s or iPhone 7s Plus, but recent reports have strongly indicated that both those phones will have the Touch ID sensor on the front of the phone as usual. It’s also possible that the video could show an earlier test model of any of the three new iPhones prior to Apple deciding on the final version, as previously leaked dummies and schematics have shown new iPhone models with rear Touch IDs.
