An iPhone with an in-display Touch ID and a foldable model may arrive later than initially expected.

Analyst Ming-Chi Kuo updated the timeline on the arrival of the iPhone with in-display Touch. He now believes Apple will introduce the feature in the second half of 2023 due to delays in its development.

Earlier this year, there were rumours about the in-display Touch ID coming to the iPhone 13. However, Bloomberg claims it will not make the cut this year and may appear on future low-end iPhone models.

For the foldable iPhone, Kuo says it has been pushed back to 2024 for similar reasons. In his March investor note, Kuo wrote that Apple could launch the foldable iPhone in 2023 and should come with a 7.5 to 8 inch display.

He cautioned that the 2023 timeline is dependent on whether Apple could resolve "key technology and mass production issues".

Kuo also reiterates his prediction that Apple is likely to adopt a punch-hole display and 48MP camera for the iPhone 14 Pro next year .
