The iPhone 5S home button doesn't look like it's going anywhere as the latest leak tips it to work both as your multi-tasking launcher and fingerprint scanner.
That's the word from Nowhereelse.fr, at least, which has what is supposedly some marketing materials from Apple that describe the button as "Home button/Touch ID sensor".
We've heard tell of the new iPhone coming with fingerprint reading tech for some time now with speculation fuelled by the news that Apple bought fingerprint scanning specialist Authentec in 2012.
We've also heard about the mysterious deletion of the square icon from the home button, and this new silver ring around the key as well.
Rumour Willis
Then again, we've heard a lot of things about the iPhone 5S - that it'll come in a 'champagne'-coloured finish, that it'll be bigger than the iPhone 5, that it will be smaller than the iPhone 5, that it'll be made out of unicorn horn...
We might've made one of those up. Anyway, not long to wait until we find out exactly what is what with the iPhone 5S as Apple's event kicks off later today (Tuesday) at 6pm BST / 10am PT.
- Get in on the Apple event action: we're expecting an iPhone 5S and an iPhone 5C. Follow along here on the site or join us for some classic tech #bantz over on Twitter.
