Samsung Galaxy S9 new fingerprint sensor

Previously, one of the most awaited features of Apple iPhone X is the Face ID and a fingerprint sensor. However, the fingerprint sensor didn’t show up for the iPhone X. Additionally, Samsung also faced this problem with their Galaxy S8/S8+. As a result, Samsung is now hinting that they will fix this problem with a new embedded fingerprint sensor inside the display. This is undoubtedly a better option than positioning it in the middle at the back of the phone. For now, we can expect to see this new technology in the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S9.

Furthermore, this Wednesday, Samsung also announced that they had begun mass production an essential part of Galaxy S9: the chipset! This processor is the next-gen Exynos processor that will power the Galaxy S9 models. According to Samsung, Samsung Galaxy S9 will take power from two chipsets: Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 and the Exynos 9810. There is a high chance that Samsung will manufacture both of them. Some of these chipsets’ features include 10% faster performance and 15% more power efficient than the first-gen of the Samsung 2017 flagship Android devices.

Other than that, the new Galaxy S9 is expected to have an incremental upgrade over the Galaxy S8. Some reports state that the phone will get a limited Snapdragon 845 exclusivity. If accurate, this means Samsung would be the only device maker to have access to these chipsets early next year. That’s what happened this year with the Snapdragon 835 chip.
