Oracle Technology Network for Java Developers Oracle Technology Network. Looks Like Apple Leaked Details of the New i. Phone in the Home. Pod Firmware UpdatedIf you had any doubts about Apple releasing a bezel free i. Phone in September, you can probably throw those out the window. The company just pushed out a version of the Home. Pod firmware, and not only does the code tell us more about how Apples smart speaker will work, it also offers a few clues about the next i. Phone. Developer Steve Troughton Smith spotted the release on Friday morning and has been tweeting out his discoveries since then. Based on the firmware, the Home. Pod is essentially a big i. Phone with no screen, Troughton Smith says. The device even shows up as an i. Phone SE in the i. Tunes Store, although Troughton Smith reveals, there doesnt seem to be any kind of provision in the Home. Pod OS shell for installing apps or extensions. So dont expect any special Home. Pod apps right out of the gate. Theres also some code that describes a simple LED display on top of the Home. Pod, one that could show basic symbols like and and maybe weather icons. Otherwise, the code just looks a lot like boring old i. OS And then comes the good stuff. After nearly two days of sleuthing, Troughton Smith found some code that appears to reveal a new feature that would let you unlock an i. Phone with your face. Rumors suggest that this feature will show up on the next i. Phone and perhaps even replace the Touch ID button. Presumably, this would allow Apple to expand the i. Phone screen and introduce a bezel free design, similar to the Samsung Galaxy S8.

Phone will look like until Apple announces it, but these new details are hard to overlook. Plus, Apple isnt quite the ironclad vault of secrets it once was. Since the i. Phone 4 debacle, every i. Phone has essentially looked just like the rumors said it would, save a stray feature here or there. We have no reason to believe that the next i. Phone release will be any different. Lets hope its not, too. The idea of a big, beautiful OLED display on the i. Phone 8 or whatever it will be called is exciting.
