As what you asked for, more details about the Samsung Galaxy S10 has surfaced. News broke out that the device is going to ditch the iris scanner for an in-display fingerprint & facial recognition. Keep reading to find out!

Samsung Galaxy S10 to have in-display fingerprint feature

According to our sources, Samsung is NOT going to feature the iris scanner. Thus, leaving the rumoured Note 9 to be the last Galaxy device to offer such tech. But that is not entirely bad news as the iris scanner isn’t exactly the most efficient way to unlock your phone. On the contrary, Apple Face ID is far more accurate and faster while most users still prefer the good old fingerprint reader. However, some may think that the stock Android face unlock is more convenient than the iris scanner.

Now back to the point, by removing the scanner, the Korean giant will save on some buck and will instead invest in a new 3D facial recognition technology. Reportedly, Samsung is in the works with Mantis Vision firm to develop the needed tech. What’s more interesting is that the Samsung Galaxy S10 and S10 Plus will offer an in-display fingerprint reader as an alternative biometric security feature.

We’ve already seen some handsets with the new tech this year, so it’s safe to say that Samsung is working on an iteration of its own. There’s also a possibility that the fingerprint scanner will double as a sensor for blood pressure and heart rate, but this could take a while to develop and we aren’t sure that Samsung will make it work properly in time.
