Doubt it. The way how Apple operates is just to improve on like the camera, and speed. for the S Series. I bet however it would be on iPhone 6

Is it possible that the US government could court order this data thereby finger printing all US citizens that use the iPhone?

Well, as nice and sharp as the iPhone's screen is the S4's and One's screen are even sharper so these seemingly ridiculous pixel densities DO makes a tangible difference. That said I'd like to see Apple do somethimg to make their phones more durable and hold up to wear a little better. Getting a case shouldn't be mandatory in the same way it is for the iPhone 5 to keep the phone in presentable (spelled N E W) condition.

Something as robust as Gorilla Glass 3 and some highly toughened aluminum (or Kevlar or something).

I'd rather see these things than a fingerprint reader.

Been speculated so many times.

Regardless, if fingerprint scanning becomes a security feature, I would liken it to Android's face unlock. It's neat, but sometimes it proves to be more difficult than just inputting your device pin.

Well, typically, when Apple implements a feature it tends to simply work so if they do decide the fingerprint reader is in their future it will likely be easily and reliably usable. ...just my opinion.

Still, a fingerprint scanner on a phone isn't a new concept. Motorola already had this for almost two and a half years with the Atrix. And I don't know if the Atrix was the first to have one.

And the iPhone doesn'r suffer from the same problem? Or does the iPhone have a smudge free screen. If it has I must return mine, because they forgot to place it.

TBH, the feature isn't even all that attractive to me. Again, there's other things that are much higher on m'list. I think a sort of iPhone "Pro" with the same, or better, screen as the S4 would do well in the market, alongside the current designs. Why not?
