    Anonymous, 30 Jun 2016Hmm.... if this panel is real how will they fit their logo?... moreThey ditch that front logo since S6 era for the Japan version. No problem there.

      Use other alternatives to unlock your phone?
      Dont use the feature?
      Your not forced to buy Samsung phones?

      Seriously, why do 10 year olds or adults with a brain of a 10 yr old even bother to comment on here?

              They dont even have a front logo... check your facts kiddo.
              I am not a HTC fan, I tried every brand smartphone and Samsung give me the worst experience!
              IRIS scanner? It's not even natively supported by Android!
              Why not improve on your puny lousy mono single soft speaker which produce terrible sound quality? Even China branded phones nowadays have dual speakers you kiddo!

                    Note 7 shouldn't be edged. It kills the screen real estate and also the S pen functionality. You need a flat screen not a curved one to write properly.

                        seeing it next to the 7edge how can it be a 5.8 when its that same size pretty much also glad its only slightly curved but yea hopefully it is only 5.5 5.6 is already big enough

                            And when the iPhone gets that feature, Apple fans will surely say it is an innovative feature. Lol.

                                      If you think "how useful that iris scan tech?" you can learn Microsoft Lumia 950/950 XL first.
