Looks like we’ll be ditching the fingerprint scanner on the back or on the home button of the smartphones as Vivo has unveiled their newest technology in MWC Shanghai. Their newest technology allows them to have a fingerprint scanner under the display of the smartphone.
So yes, the fingerprint scanner won’t be visible anymore as the hardware responsible for that is already under the display of the smartphone.
Vivo’s new under display fingerprint scanner solution is based on Qualcomm Fingerprint Sensors and it can penetrate an OLED display that is 1.2mm thick. And of course, this technology will still allow waterproofing.
There’s still no product announced that will be having this feature from Vivo but it’s really refreshing to see that a new and cool technology like this from a Chinese brand.
