Will the fingerprint sensor return to the iPhone? Qualcomm hopes so

Face ID has become a identity sign on the iPhone, all models released during 2018 and 2019 already include this technology and that notch in the upper part it comes to represent what at the time the button in the lower central part of the device represented, as we have said, it was the characteristic feature of the terminal and now we have specifically this. However, many of us have missed the iPhone's Touch ID from the moment it disappeared, and we would welcome its reinstatement. Now Qualcomm has launched a next-generation in-screen fingerprint sensor and hopes that the iPhone 11 will choose to use it, what do you think?

This fingerprint sensor has been presented during the Snapdragon Tech Summit this year, and basically what it represents is the second generation of ultrasonic fingerprint scanner and fully integrated into the signature screen. Qualcomm presents with it a series of advantages that would make it attractive even for the iPhone 11 Pro, The first is that it has a 17 times greater range of action, it would exactly occupy a size of 20mm x 30mm on the screen, which would make it easier and faster to unlock the device, and above all it would subject the system to much less errors.

It makes sense, Apple tends to bet on a wide interaction space, a clear example is how the touchpads / trackpads of the MacBook have been growing steadily and considerably. In this way the sensor is large enough to cover most of the bottom center of the screens, failure would be almost impossible. In addition, according to Qualcomm it is more secure than all previously presented versions, but We must not forget that this firm is responsible for the fingerprint sensor on the screen mounted on the Samsung Galaxy S10, which has not been precisely praised for its effectiveness and safety.
