          Samsung is slowly running out of steam, the pace of time in mobile industry is too fast for any manufacturer. An overall slowdown will happen at some point.

                          ... always something great in s phones.
                          i can imagine it like in oppo n1 - with hi-res camera and ir-light or something.
                          41mpix would be best. :)

                                    [deleted post]Good idea! I seem to like my farts more than others, so I figure it must be due to everyone has a unique mix of gases. This could be a true innovation in mobile security!

                                        This do not seem to be a practical way to unlock... for the same reasons Face Unlock is not wildly popular... it requires your face to be in front of the phone, something you want to avoid at some situations...

                                        Fingerprint was great in my experience with the Atrix, and I unlock my phone while taking it out of my pocket in one movement, maybe faster than what an iPhone 5S would.
