https://www.cnet.com/news/samsung-galaxy-note-9-may-fix-the-note-8s-most-annoying-flaw-leak-shows/ > Fan-made renders of the upcoming Note 9 appeared in a video posted by 91mobiles. The renders were done in conjunction with Onleaks, known for renders of yet-to-be-released phones. Onleaks claims that the Note 9 renders are based on factory CAD info, but it's worth noting that these aren't official Samsung renders. > According to the renders, Samsung may redesign its placement of the fingerprint sensor, moving it below the phone's dual cameras. On the Galaxy Note 8 the sensor was awkwardly close to the cameras, creating the potential for fingerprint smudges on your camera lens (it was worse on the Galaxy S8). The sensor's placement also seems to dispel the myth that the Note 9 could get an in-display fingerprint reader, like the Vivo X21.
