We're hearing about the iris scanner yet again, thanks to a couple of screenshots posted online. The screenshots are available in Korean and Chinese, which almost confirms its authenticity. The third onscreen option supposedly says “use iris”.
The screenshot reveals the settings page, where the option to use your fingerprint or PIN is also visible. Needless to say, these are pretty convincing screenshots and could be one of the highlight features of the upcoming Note flagship. Samsung recently released the iris scanner enabled Galaxy Tab Iris in India, so if these leaks are indeed true, the Galaxy Note 7 won't be the company's first device to utilize the sensor.
But with that in mind, we must be mindful that screenshots are not hard to doctor. So make sure you take this with a large dosage of salt. Do you think this is the real deal?
I’m a computer science engineer living in Hyderabad, India, who has a keen interest in automobiles and consumer electronics. My journalism career kicked off in 2017 with MySmartPrice where I wrote news, features, buying guides, and explanatory articles about technology among other things, and reviewed many products, including smartphones, tablets, laptops, PC components, smartwatches, audio devices, wearables, and smart home products. Since then, I have worked for 91Mobiles, Apple, and Onsitego, before finally landing on SamMobile.
