The iPhone X launching early next week will come with facial recognition instead of Touch ID, whereas the iPhone 8 and the iPhone 8 Plus boasts a fingerprint sensor, but without Face ID.

Starting with the next-year generation, Apple will add a little bit more consistency across its lineup and offer facial recognition on all iPhone models, according to well-known Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo from KGI Securities.

This means the company will give up on fingerprint sensors on the iPhone completely, and this year’s model is the last one to feature Touch ID.

The analyst says that using facial recognition with 3D sensing on all models will help Apple maintain its advantage over its rivals, which are still struggling to develop similar technology. Kuo believes that all iPhone versions could thus make the transition to an all-screen design, giving up on bezels and incorporating only facial recognition to secure devices and authorize downloads and payments.
