First. Apple will sue everyone who will use such sensors. I'm sure there is a hidden patent on this technology.
Second. So, no any protecting glasses or films on these screens? Nor thst sensor will not work?

    Bebe Rexha, 28 Jun 2017The time when Sony will get 3D Facial Recognition? Good jo... moreThis is the most random comment ever! Where did Sony and 3D facial recognition come from. Lol

    Btw, nice one Qualcomm! I bet the OnePlus 6 and other flagships gonna have this tech soon.

        Same here. I didn't upgrade this year. There's nothing new. Waiting for 2018 flagships..

              Good thing I didn't upgrade this year. This year was very bad for phones, to be honest. Large bezels (minus LG and Samsung), back-placed fingerprint sensors...nothing new. Next year we will probably see the first truly bezel-less phones with under-glass fingerprint sensors.
