Samsung intends to launch a product that will have a function that the Apple company tried to implement in the iPhone, but unfortunately failed miserably. I'm talking about a fingerprint reader integrated into the screen of a smartphone, the Samsung company registering a patent that describes how everything can be done.
You can see in the image below how the Samsung company intends to implement under the screen of future smartphones a virtual Home button where fingerprints will be scanned. It would have the dimensions of the old Home button used before the Samsung Galaxy S8 series, but we are only talking about a demarcation on the screen of the area under which the fingerprint reader is located.
Samsung Galaxy Note 9 it will be the smartphone in which Samsung will try to integrate, for the second time, a fingerprint reader under the screen, although it failed in the past. Samsung now, unlike last year, has more options to integrate such technologies under the screens of its phones, so it will be interesting to see what it will achieve.
If Samsung will launch a smartphone with a fingerprint reader integrated into the screen, then it will have a real advantage over those from Apple, who failed to offer something like that. If you were to ask me, I would say that an in-screen fingerprint reader would be a greater advantage than Face ID, and if Apple had the means to offer this technology, I think they would never have released Face ID for iPhone.
