With the iPhone 16 models now only a few months away, the leaks are starting to roll in. While little can be confirmed until the device actually launches, most leaks and rumors eventually end up being confirmed. One such recent rumor suggests that the iPhone 16 models could feature “design changes” to the Face ID system.

A report from The Telegraph, a British newspaper, suggests that Apple may be looking to overhaul its Face ID system. This comes after Apple’s Face ID component supplier ‘Coherent’ lost its supply deal with the company. While this is a disaster for the British supplier, it could mean that Apple will be looking elsewhere for its Face ID system.

It's currently unclear to what extent Apple will "refresh" the iPhone 16. Apple regularly rolls out such changes to newer models, but not all under-the-hood changes result in new features or noticeable changes.

Still, even though the details are still hazy, there’s potential for some big changes to the Face ID system that could lead to faster authentication and other such improvements. Between now and September, additional leaks and rumors could shed more light on what, exactly, the change entails for the upcoming iPhone 16 models.
