iPhone 12 — Touch ID?!

Back in 2017, Apple deleted Touch ID and replaced it with Face ID. They didn’t keep both. They didn’t add Face ID to Touch ID. They went to the brave new world of biometrics and burned the old one down behind them.

But, the ashes had barely even settled before we started getting rumors of Touch ID’s return. It’s resurrection.

Not just in the new iPhone SE, which some people loved precisely because it had Touch ID, but in the flagship iPhones as well.

But, why would Apple kill it just to bring it back to life? And could they do it as soon as the #iPhone12?
