South Korean manufacturing giant, Samsung, hasĀ favoured the use of iris scanner in recent times. Right from the Galaxy Note 7, Samsung has always adopted the iris scanner as itsĀ biometric identification method besides fingerprints. On the Galaxy S9 series, the company integratedĀ iris and face recognition features, hoping to increase the success rate and speed of unlocking the smartphone. However, current report from South Korea suggests thatĀ Samsung has not yet purchased any iris sensor samples for the new Galaxy S10 flagship smartphone. This has raised the speculation that theĀ Galaxy S10 may abandon the iris recognition technology for an on-screen fingerprint sensor and 3D facial recognition.
