From the physical Home button to the introduction of fingerprints, to the upgrade to touch ID, to the face ID 3D face recognition solution of the iPhone X, the iPhone has been changing its methods to improve the user experience. In the current iPhone product line, only iPhone SE 3 still retains the Home button, but the situation seems to be changing soon.
Some media found that Apple updated the presentation diagram of a patent related to side fingerprints two years ago, from a tablet form to a style more similar to the iPhone.
To put it simply, the picture demonstrates the three states from the lock screen to unlock, first waiting to be unlocked, then unlocking, and then after unlocking.
The patent clearly mentions that the device has a power button embedded with fingerprint recognition. Since the current iPad Air 4 has already launched the side fingerprint, there is reason to believe that iPhone, iPad mini 6, and other products will follow up.
It is almost beyond doubt that iPhone SE finally abandoned the Home button. As the cheapest model in Apple’s mobile phone product line, side fingerprints also help it reduce costs and separate it from the iPhone digital product line.

Of course, according to Guo Mingchi, Apple is still testing fingerprints under the screen. According to Apple’s habit, it should start from the end-user experience and choose the best solution.
