We’re expected to see redesigned iMac models release later this year with the new Apple Silicon, and the ‘cherry on top’ on the newer hardware would have been Face ID. Unfortunately, according to a new report, it doesn’t appear that the ‘fingerless’ authentication feature would make its way to the newer machines.

According to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, the redesigned Apple Silicon iMac models will miss out on Face ID. The fact that this has been mentioned previously by the same reporter means that the feature likely won’t be added to these machines, which is a shame. This can also suggest that we shouldn’t Face ID to debut on the new MacBook Pro, which are expected in the second quarter of 2021.
