If the screen is super expensive already, I dont wanna know the price to replace this one.
If it gets broken, burn in or any issue with FPS

    I read the article. Its says patent approved. Nothing more, nothing less. Nothing near any tech product or implementation.
    Mention of S9 in context is just writers wishfull thinking.
    It takes much more from patent to implementation than a couple of months, more like a year or two minimum...

    Btw, hardly scratch, Vivo presented qualcomms one on prototype already

The patent only got accepted today, they aren't going to release something without a patent and open themselves to being sued or have tech stolen. Other companies have been working on this for awhile but none of it's up to scratch that's why apple compromised with faceid and that aweful notch.

        January, 28 Nov 2017Perhaps he not forgot it, because is well known that S9 and S9+ will come with AKG STEREO SPEA... moreIf this is true, than s9+ will be my next phone for sure .
        Most important thing preventing me from upgrading to a note 8 is the really mediocre speaker .I am used to the really loud and clear speaker of the note 4(even if placed in the wrong direction), I actually use the loudspeaker a lot .

          [deleted post]I am not on iShit side either. All I'm saying is these patents aren't necessary. Everyone should have access to it to further improve the tech

            Would like to see that in smarphones, but seriously doubt it..
            These under screen fp scanner patents have been around since 2011....Sony, Vivo, Qualcomm, Apple...
            Qualcomm and Vivo even presented them live on prototypes.
            But on real smartphones Nada still...
            Its just patents, 90% of them never see light of day...
            And most certainly wont make it to S9 in some 3 months time...

              hello and welcome military tech! Just for fun because they are all crackable, but for us regular people will be major.

                Common Sense, 28 Nov 2017So by your logic, they didn't do it the first time, so they won't do it ever again now? Flawle... moreNot the first, second, third or fourth time.

                  Zenodroid, 28 Nov 2017Why? They aren't going to use it anyway. It was set for s8, but still nothing. Useless patent,... moreSo by your logic, they didn't do it the first time, so they won't do it ever again now? Flawless logic right there.

                                r33fd, 28 Nov 2017You forgot : BETTER SPEAKER(S) ! Seriously, latest samsung phones speaker sounds like trash c... morePerhaps he not forgot it, because is well known that S9 and S9+ will come with AKG STEREO SPEAKERS.... And now add this under display fingerprint feature!

                                I see a really good future for the S9 and S9+, one of the first phones in 2018 with new features, temporal exclusivity of SD 845 plus the equivalent Exynos, and variants more diferenciated with second camera and bigger battery in the S9+ and more economical the S9 one.

                                    Fingerprints, faces, DNA's, etc. are not passwords!
                                    Fingerprints, faces, DNA's, etc. are not secret!
                                    Fingerprints, faces, DNA's, etc. do not provide security!
                                    These things are basically the same as a login name. Stop advertising it as security.

                                      This is the useful feature not gimmicky face ID on a phone without convenient FPS

                                        Pathetic Samsung always so eager to patent things like Apple.
