TAKE YOUR PHONE SECURITY TO THE NEXT LEVEL

Smartphone thefts have become an international plague. Over 2.3M Americans were victims of Smartphone thefts in 2013. Thefts of mobile devices now comprise 40% of all robberies in major US cities. Consumers spend an estimated $30B each year replacing lost and stolen devices. Such figures from Nigeria is however unknown, but have been argued to be as high if not higher (You know your country). The trend is not very far. Up until now there has been no good and concrete way to prevent it.

If privacy and security is number one in your priority features list, you will really want to have a fingerprint scanner in your Smartphone. Top Smartphone manufacturers are now getting the wind of what their customers want and they have started offering a fingerprint sensor in some of their Smartphones. Motorola was the first company to offer this facility in its flagship Smartphone. In 2011, among Android phones, Atrix became the standard-bearer by getting this feature.

Apple followed Motorola adding a fingerprint reader in its Flagship phone iPhone 5s in 2013 and naming it as Touch ID. Soon HTC joined this club by launching One Max just one month after the release of iPhone 5S. Although, touch ID got praise and HTC failed to deliver a reliable and accurate scanner. Samsung had been silent regarding fingerprint sensor technology as it had not added this feature in its Flagship devices like Note 3 and Galaxy S4. Smartphone world was expecting Samsung, Sony and LG to deliver this feature in their high-end devices but things didn’t change in 2013 as far as the aforesaid companies and fingerprint sensor were concerned.

 

In April 2014, Samsung finally launched a phone that boasted fingerprint sensor and that was Galaxy S5. Galaxy S5 featured a fingerprint sensor that worked just like iPhone 5S touch ID as its fingerprint sensor was also located on front panel above the home button. But its method of working was different. To unlock the phone using touch ID, you need to put the finger on Home button, but to unlock the phone using Samsung fingerprint scanner you need to swipe the finger from top to bottom of the sensor.

Bottom line, when Touch ID and Samsung scanner were compared, experts found that touch ID was fairly more accurate than Samsung scanner and thus Samsung lost to Apple in fingerprint sensor technology.
