Galaxy S10 Models Are Expected to Come With Astonishing Feature in Years

According to the series of media reports and leaks, the Galaxy S10 will surely be the most ground breaking launch for Samsung. This will be brand’s most amazing launch in years.

In relation to the latest reports, three Galaxy S10 variants are about to be launched. According to South Korea report, all three variants will sport a latest in-display fingerprint sensor. This would be different from the previous one. It also said, being the entry-level model, this technology will be available to only two versions of the Galaxy S10.

According to Sam Mobile, the two higher end models will get an ultrasonic display-based fingerprint sensor perhaps supplied by Qualcomm, while the entry-level variant will have an optical sensor.

The ultrasonic sensor “works by transmitting an ultrasonic pulse against the finger to map the pores and ridges that are unique to each fingerprint,” the site notes. “Ultrasonic sensors are more accurate than their optical counterparts as enhanced 3D reproduction of the fingerprint is possible using the additional depth data collected.”

An optical fingerprint sensor works instead more like a digital camera to capture 2D fingerprint imagery. Accuracy can be disturbed if a finger is too wet, dry or dirty.

According to new leaks, Samsung’s successors the Galaxy S10 will also be getting a 6.2-inch curved Infinity Display for the former variant and a 6.44-inch version for the latter variant. Those had been the two previously expected to get the in-display fingerprint sensor.

The launch date of the S10 models is not yet confirmed by Samsung, or the existence of an in-display fingerprint sensor. This is therefore considered to be rumors only. Still, it’s one more reason to be excited about 2019, when the S10s will likely be available as will Samsung’s first-ever foldable Galaxy phone.

This will be the big thing for Samsung as on their 10th anniversary, the S10 models are coming out. The larger display, of course, took the two handset makers’ rivalry to a whole new level and helped reset consumer expectations around screen size.

Another reason 2019 will be significant for Samsung; the brand needs the Galaxy S10 to be a blockbuster, since the Galaxy S9 hasn’t done well as expected. The availability of a foldable phone will surely cause some excitement, but it will also be an expensive, niche release and available at first in limited quantities, putting more pressure on the Galaxy S10 to do well.
