The Galaxy S10 may be far away from launch, but the rumors have already started flooding the internet. What’s surprising is that there are more rumors coming out about the Galaxy S10 than the Galaxy Note 9 which is just a couple of months from hitting the market. Today, we have a few more details about the Galaxy S10 emerging out of Korea, but before we proceed any further, remember, nothing is official until Samsung announces it. So, take all these rumors and leaks with a healthy dose of skepticism.
According to a report in The Bell, the Galaxy S10 will be the first Samsung device to feature an in-display fingerprint reader. The company apparently tried to bring it to the Galaxy Note 9 but failed to do so due to time and technical constraints. Apart from the in-display fingerprint scanner, in collaboration with the Israeli firm Mantis, Samsung is also reportedly working on a 3D face-scanning module of its own, similar to the one found in the Apple iPhone X.
A 3D scanning module will offer many benefits
If Samsung succeeds in equipping the Galaxy S10 with a 3D scanning module, then, the report states, the company would ditch the iris scanner entirely for cost and weight savings. Hinting at the development of the 3D module, Samsung has reportedly ordered sample parts for the Galaxy S10 from all the component suppliers except those who provide it with the iris sensor.
It does make complete sense for Samsung to remove the current facial and Iris scanning authentication systems if it succeeds in putting a 3D scanning module in the Galaxy S10. All the 3D scanning modules we have seen so far are faster and more accurate than Samsung’s current solution. Also, such a module will help Samsung in dramatically improving its AR Emoji feature as well.
Finally, the report also says that Galaxy S10 will come in two screen sizes – a 5.8″ model and a 6.3″ model. Just as expected.
