Mr. Min Qi and Kuo, familiar with iPhone-related forecasts, announced this forecast. According to Mr. Kuo, the next generation iPhone seems to be equipped with a new Face ID camera system with improved recognition accuracy by eliminating the influence of light not seen by human eyes. Mr. Kuo also sees that iPhone in 2019 will be the same model composition as 2018, two OLED models equipped with this new Face ID and one LCD model.

Mr. Kuo also predicted that a new system called "Time of Flight (ToF) 3D camera" will appear on the iPad released in 2019. ToF is "a device that calculates the distance by measuring the time until the laser light bounces back from the object", and the new Face ID uses a VCSEL (light source) emitting light having a light wavelength of 1000 nm (nanometer) or more Vertical cavity surface emitting laser) will be used. In the face ID that appeared in 2017, light rays with a wavelength of 935 - 945 nm are used.

About ToF deployment Mr. Kuo believes that ToF is first installed on the iPad in 2019 and will be deployed to the iPhone in 2020. ToF is expected to enhance the AR function implemented in iOS, and Mr. Kuo allows ToF-equipped iPad to "completely new imagination experience" by using Apple Pencil together It is predicted. Mr. Kuo who previously showed a negative view on the adoption of VCSEL seems to have turned the judgment this time.

In addition to this, the iPhone which appeared in 2019 is equipped with "A13 chip" which improved processing power, and it is also seen that at least some models will be equipped with "triple lens camera".
