Do iPhones not have front facing cameras? (alien.top)

I'm seriously considering switching from my Google Pixel to the new iPhone, but I have one major concern: do iPhones not have front-facing cameras? I've noticed that almost every selfie I see on Instagram is taken using a mirror in someone's room or bathroom, and I'm starting to worry that I won't be able to take selfies anymore if I switch to an iPhone.

Is this just a weird coincidence, or is there something I'm missing? Do iPhones really not have front-facing cameras? If not, why do so many people seem to be using mirrors to take selfies?

u/catgirlishere....yup... i've heard of that one too...

Weird thing is that, I also heard that newer iphones can be unlocked with your face... it's called face id...

Then I got thinking... how does the iphone see your face???? hmmm

I've spent many nights losing sleep over it... can't get an answer ... nope didn't think on a google search on that one.. the internet is wrong and I don't trust it...

Maybe iphones have Lidar built into them?... or a wave-lenght-other-radar-type sensor... that constructs an image based on sonnar type signal bouncing of your face back to the phone and builds a face picture from that information???... still don't know...

man this is a mistery and I hope you find the answer to that question... and when you do, make sure you come back and let me know!

Update:

yes!!!!... iphones have a front face camera dating all the way since the iPhone 3g (that is the second gen iphone todate) ; )
