TrueDepth Camera System Further Delays iPhone X Production


The much expected iPhone X is still under production, however, there have been several reports of a possible delay due to its TrueDepth Camera system. Well, this is true as the complex 3D sensors used on Face ID are still not stable in 90% of the units rolling off for now. This means that only 10% meets Apple’s standard and this is surely not good enough.

An anonymous tech executive who always lays his fingers on authentic Apple information has confiirmed that iPhone X delays is caused by the dot projector and part of the TrueDepth Camera system. An annalyst with Taipei-based Yuanta Investment Consulting, Jeff Pu, aggrees with this. However, Pu believes that this set back will not stiop Apple from commencing mass production this month.
