New Delhi: Samsung has been long-rumoured to include the eye-scanning feature in the anticipated Galaxy S5 smartphone; however a new report has claimed that the company might instead bet on a more viable (as shown by Apple) fingerprint sensor for the device. According to the report, the company plans to include the fingerprint sensor below the alleged Galaxy S5’s display, while users will have to scan their fingerprints on the screen.
The Korea Herald in a report has claimed that the South Korean manufacturer is considering equipping its 2014 flagship with the fingerprint sensor feature, contrary to the earlier reports which revealed an eye-scanner feature expected in the alleged Samsung Galaxy S5. In addition, another report emerging from Korea has revealed that Samsung’s rumoured Galaxy S5 will come with multi-hovering touch technology thanks to the new Synaptics tech, which is expected to enhance finger hovering accuracy aspect of the screen input.
Further, the leak suggested some specifications of the alleged Galaxy S5, which include a 2K display boasting a resolution of 1440×2560 pixels (QHD); 2900mAh battery, and an eye-scanning sensor. Notably, a device codenamed Samsung SM-G900S sporting a screen resolution of 1440×2560 pixels (2K) was leaked in December last year. The device was believed to be the Samsung Galaxy S5, and was said to feature a 5-inch or 5.2-inch display, making the pixel density an incredible 560ppi at that resolution.
Further, the alleged device is said to sport a 20-megapixel rear camera with 4K video record support, opposing previous reports that claimed a 16-megapixel camera on the device.
