Face ID At the same time, however, it was clear that this process would not be completely simple, and that it would be miniIt may require knowledge of micro-soldering. This was confirmed a little while ago. It turned out that the entire process of replacing the display with maintaining functionality is as expected. Face ID very sophisticated, and that ordinary amateur repairmen simply will not be able to perform it. About the possibility of the iPhone 13 display (Pro) replace and preserve Face ID informed the repair portal iCorrect, which, among other things, explains the reason for the deactivation Face ID after performing a classic display replacement.

We, as consumers and repairers, are just intermediaries. Apple develops wonderful technologies, both externally and internally, and subsequently has them manufactured in China. This country dismantles the entire technology immediately after production and starts producing alternative spare parts [which are usually not of such high quality, note ed.]. Apple is trying to fight against these procedures precisely by prohibiting the use of non-original parts."
