iPhone 8 Code Name and Image Found in Homepod Firmware

Steven did a little sleuthing over the weekend, poking around the HomePod firmware…

I can confirm reports that HomePod’s firmware reveals the existence of upcoming iPhone’s infra-red face unlock in BiometricKit and elsewhere pic.twitter.com/yLsgCx7OTZ

Pearl ID and BiometricKit found, but still no word whether the iPhone 8/Pro (or whatever else Apple will call it) will have Touch ID along facial recognition.

Me too. New bezel-less form factor as well pic.twitter.com/Y0RrSOk2OO

Guilherme Rambo‏ also found an image representing the new iPhone, which Steven confirmed, along with its D22 code name.

Someone at Apple is going to have an angry phone call today…
