The Google Pixel 6A seems like it’s going to have a new fingerprint scanner, possibly setting it apart from the rest of the Pixel 6 line’s sensor problems.
After months of speculation, leaks, and rumors, the Google Pixel 6A was finally officially revealed at Google I/O 2022 and it seems to include an updated fingerprint scanner. The issues with the scanners featured in the Pixel 6 and 6 Pro have left a lot of fans cold on Google’s sensor technology, but the company might be able to turn things around with the 6A. It’s worth noting that the updated fingerprint sensor wasn’t mentioned during the Pixel 6A’s reveal during the Google I/O keynote earlier this week. Instead, the information on the new part was shared with Android Central by Google’s senior vice president of devices and services Rick Osterloh on the day of the presentation.
