Android smartphones will have an advantage over the iPhone

One of the features that has been most frequently pointed to the next high-end Android smartphones has been the integrated fingerprint sensor on the screen, which has been seen as the next evolution of this type of security mechanism. Well, according to analyst Ming-Chi Kuo of KGI Securities Apple has no plans to bet on this feature.Kuo said that neither the iPhones of this year nor the next will have this type of fingerprint sensor, with Apple preferring to bet on Face ID facial recognition system that was introduced by the company last year with the iPhone X.Among the reasons Apple does not wager on this kind of fingerprint sensor is the complexity of installing them on OLED screens and the fact that they only work on a certain surface and not the entire screen.Apple has already confirmed that the new iPhones will be officially unveiled on September 12, so it's a matter of waiting to hear the news of the new models.
