Samsung may use facial recognition and iris scanning to unlock your Galaxy S8, says report.
Say cheese: The Samsung Galaxy S8 may include a facial recognition feature to unlock your phone more easily. This extra security option could come in addition to a possible iris scanner and the usual fingerprint sensor, according to a report by Korea Economic Daily.
Fingerprint sensors are starting to feel old school.
“So what? ” you might say, if you’re already happy with your fingerprint sensor. (You’ve spent years guiding your thumb to the home button at the bottom of your display, after all.)
But you may not find a fingerprint sensor there on the Galaxy S8: leaks suggest Samsung may have moved that sensor to the back of the phone.
Rather than building a new habit, it might be faster to let Samsung’s face camera do the work — particularly because it could take less than 0.
