Samsung Electronics today announced its newest Galaxy smartphone includes an under-display fingerprint sensor. This technology puts the fingerprint reader directly beneath the phone’s screen. Users unlock the phone by pressing their finger on the display glass. This removes the need for a separate sensor on the back or side.

The sensor uses light to capture fingerprint details. It works through the screen itself. Samsung says this method is secure. The system checks the fingerprint against stored data. It only unlocks for the registered user.
This design change frees up space on the phone’s body. Manufacturers gain more flexibility. The entire front surface becomes usable display area. The phone looks cleaner without a visible sensor.
Samsung believes this improves user experience. Unlocking happens naturally on the screen people already touch. It feels more intuitive than reaching for a rear sensor. The company tested the technology extensively. They focused on reliability and speed. Unlocking should be quick and consistent.
