About an hour ago Xiaomi presented the Mi 5s and the Mi 5s Plus. After weeks of leaks and rumors we finally had the opportunity to appreciate the design and discover all the technical characteristics of the two new Xiaomi admirals. One of the features that has certainly caught the eye is the ultrasonic fingerprint sensor, which is surprisingly "visible" when it was expected to be completely hidden.
Lei Jun, CEO of Xiaomi, explained, during the presentation, why the sensor is visible. He said the company has decided to include a groove on the front glass, exactly above the sensor location, to make it easy to find. While the reason is acceptable, I believe users would still be able to unlock their smartphone once the scanner's location is memorized. It may take some time, but if we can make use of smartphones that have non-backlit capacitive buttons in the dark, it shouldn't be difficult. Lei Jun added that a little tactile feedback will make it easier to find the scanner.
This latest generation scanner has been in development for years and will finally be available to all users, who won't have to worry about getting their fingers dirty or wet, as the smartphone will unlock in the blink of an eye as soon as the sensor recognizes the fingerprint. previously stored digital. This will be possible thanks to thousands of micro seismic probes placed inside the scanner. The front glass is also very durable and integrates seamlessly with the rest of the phone.
