Looks like the upcoming Galaxy S10 will forego the optical fingerprint solution in favor of something more advanced; something that might help Samsung generated a bigger sales momentum and help recover from the abysmal sales performance of the Galaxy S9 and Galaxy S9 Plus.
Well known tipster Ice Universe recently tweeted that DJ Koh, the head of Samsung’s mobile division said that Galaxy S10 will not have an optical fingerprint solution as it may deliver a bad user experience. If this issue did not exist, Samsung would have adopted it a couple of years ago. The Samsung Galaxy S10 will instead have an in-screen fingerprint reader. This means that the Galaxy S10 could end up being the first phone from the manufacturer to feature this type of authentication. Sadly, the upcoming Galaxy Note 9 will be left out.
