Galaxy Z Fold 4 and Flip 4 will not have an under-display fingerprint reader

Samsung has paid off for its investments in the foldable smartphone market in recent years. Samsung, which is the clear leader in the foldable smartphone market, has attracted attention especially with the Galaxy Z Fold 3 and Galaxy Z Flip 3. The new Z Fold 4 and Z Flip 4, which Samsung is expected to introduce in the coming months, will continue with the fingerprint integrated into the power button.

There will be no under-screen fingerprint reader

Samsung, which has been using an under-screen fingerprint reader in its flagships for many years, has not included an under-screen fingerprint reader in the Galaxy Z Fold and Z Flip series. Since foldable screens may have made this situation difficult, Samsung has used a fingerprint scanner integrated into the power button so far. It looks like Samsung will continue on this path.

Business Korea According to information from , Samsung thought of using an under-display fingerprint reader for the Z Fold 4 and Z Flip 4, but later abandoned this idea. Samsung, which finds it efficient for users to read the fingerprint at the same time while opening the folded screens, will continue on this path. In addition, Samsung was required to place fingerprint scanners under the screen for the Galaxy Z Fold 4 on both the inner and outer screen. For these reasons, Samsung will most likely continue to use the fingerprint integrated into the power button. Perhaps Samsung uses an under-display fingerprint scanner for the Z Flip 4 and continues to use the power button integrated fingerprint for the Z Fold 4.
