Huawei’s upcoming Mate flagship said to sport in-display fingerprint scanner

<img alt="" src="http://images.fonearena.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/Huawei-Mate-9_fonearena-04.jpg" /> Under the display fingerprint sensors are slowly becoming a thing and we are hearing reports that Samsung might include it in the upcoming Note9. This year we have already seen Vivo X20 Plus UD and X21 UD smartphones with the in-display sensor and it is just a start. Today we are hearing reports that Huawei might be going this route and it is said to sport an under-display fingerprint scanner. Huawei is said to be choosing the Qualcomm's ultrasonic fingerprint solution which might make the new Mate 11 ( or Mate 20) flagship the first smartphone to ship with that particular sensor built-in. The Huawei Mate flagship s scheduled to launch in late Q3 or early Q4 (so September or October). Qualcomm, in order to build its ultrasonic sensor, is said to have partnered with Taiwan-based GIS and China's O-film Tech, both specializing in offering touchscreen solutions. While it is three-time costlier than the traditional counterparts, but is also 0.44mm thick and works through "up to 800-micron cover glass", compared to only 200-300 microns of glass thickness for 'normal' capacitive scanners. The sensor will also work when your fingers are wet or greasy. Huawei isn't the only company looking towards under-display fingerprint sensors, others brands are also apparently decided to build ... <div class="feedflare"><a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/fone-arena?a=qQmzvYhQMFg:5XIbwS5zuPU:yIl2AUoC8zA"><img border="0" src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/fone-arena?d=yIl2AUoC8zA" /></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/fone-arena?a=qQmzvYhQMFg:5XIbwS5zuPU:V_sGLiPBpWU"><img border="0" src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/fone-arena?i=qQmzvYhQMFg:5XIbwS5zuPU:V_sGLiPBpWU" /></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/fone-arena?a=qQmzvYhQMFg:5XIbwS5zuPU:D7DqB2pKExk"><img border="0" src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/fone-arena?i=qQmzvYhQMFg:5XIbwS5zuPU:D7DqB2pKExk" /></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/fone-arena?a=qQmzvYhQMFg:5XIbwS5zuPU:7Q72WNTAKBA"><img border="0" src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/fone-arena?d=7Q72WNTAKBA" /></a></div> <img alt="" height="1" src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/fone-arena/~4/qQmzvYhQMFg" width="1" /><br /> <a href="http://www.fonearena.com/blog/247533/huawei-mate-12-in-display-fingerprint.html">Read Here»</a>

<img alt="" src="http://images.fonearena.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/Aadhar-Card-e1520941922914.jpg" /> Aadhaar is India's national identity for individuals, and it contains private data of users like identity and biometric information. For many wrong reasons, of lately, Aadhaar is making the news mostly because of its lack of proper security and protection.

Karan Saini, a New Delhi-based security researcher, is the brain behind in discovering the vulnerability said that anyone with an Aadhaar number is affected.

Samsung investigating Galaxy S9, Galaxy S9+ touchscreen issues

<img alt="" src="http://images.fonearena.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/Samsung-Galaxy-S9_fonearena-1-1-1024x626.jpg" /> While Samsung Galaxy S9 and S9+ might sport the world's best-performing smartphone display, numerous complaints are now surfacing over Samsung forum, Reddit and XDA about the touchscreen dead spots. Users claim that the touchscreen won't respond to touch input.  Samsung Galaxy S9 and S9+ users complain that the display won't register the touch and dead zones in the top or the bottom of the screen. Meaning that it doesn't seem like a problem that is limited to one area. It's unclear if this is a widespread issue or one that affects a small number of phones. There are reports about users fixing the issue by cranking up the touch sensitivity and by factory resetting. However, for many, the problem persists despite wiping and increasing the touch sensitivity. While users have also started getting replacements directly from Samsung as it covers the 1-year warranty for the device. Samsung can't afford to have another scandal up its sleeves after the Note7 fiasco. However, Samsung was quick to respond to the issue and said that it is investigating and it is currently seeing only a limited number of reports. Commenting on the issue, Samsung spokesperson said: At Samsung, customer satisfaction is core to our business and we aim to deliver the ... <div class="feedflare"><a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/fone-arena?a=hGTkDAAHSY0:y_BU2spPfhA:yIl2AUoC8zA"><img border="0" src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/fone-arena?d=yIl2AUoC8zA" /></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/fone-arena?a=hGTkDAAHSY0:y_BU2spPfhA:V_sGLiPBpWU"><img border="0" src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/fone-arena?i=hGTkDAAHSY0:y_BU2spPfhA:V_sGLiPBpWU" /></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/fone-arena?a=hGTkDAAHSY0:y_BU2spPfhA:D7DqB2pKExk"><img border="0" src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/fone-arena?i=hGTkDAAHSY0:y_BU2spPfhA:D7DqB2pKExk" /></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/fone-arena?a=hGTkDAAHSY0:y_BU2spPfhA:7Q72WNTAKBA"><img border="0" src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/fone-arena?d=7Q72WNTAKBA" /></a></div> <img alt="" height="1" src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/fone-arena/~4/hGTkDAAHSY0" width="1" /><br /> <a href="http://www.fonearena.com/blog/247518/samsung-galaxy-s9-galaxy-s9-plus-touchscreen-issues.html">Read Here»</a>
