Other news says that if the transfer of Face ID to the bottom of the screen is successful and gets a positive response from the market, then Apple will cancel it notch or dynamic island so that the display of the cellphone is dominated by the collected screen KompasTekno from MacRumors, Friday (13/1/2023).
Market analyst Ross Young, once said that Apple will introduce a new screen technology or other technology on the Pro models every year, to differentiate them from non-Pro models.
The practice is the same as the duo iPhone 14 Pro which is equipped with a sophisticated screen notch called Dynamic Island, while non-Pro models (iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Plus) still carry a notched screen like the iPhone 13 series.
Rumors about Face ID under the screen itself have actually been sticking out even before the iPhone 14 was released by Apple. In April 2022, an analyst who often leaks Apple products, Ming-Chi Kuo stated that a full-screen iPhone would be present in 2024 or for the iPhone 16.

At that time, Kuo claimed that the iPhone 16 would be equipped with an under-screen selfie camera and under-screen Face ID as well.
I think the real full-screen iPhone will come in 2024. High-end iPhones in 2024 would adopt an under-display front camera alongside the under-display Face ID. A low-light condition is detrimental to front camera quality, and ISP & algorithm are critical for quality improvements. https://t.co/vWjeZYZUPK
