        Then Apple will find a way to combine the Underscreen FP with 3D Touch and it'll be implemented so many years later as the iPhone X2S where the 2S stands for Scanner Screen and it's also known as iPhone Twelve (12) S.

          Apple will soon copy and call it "innovative'' "iScan id"

                          Actually after the iPhone X release, everyone is in a race to Move Away from fingerprint sensors Altogether.
                          So, these guys release a half-complete model, to stay relevant. I would love to see the hit and miss rate of this one. Plus issues with the tech. Also what kind of Screen does the phone have.

                                    Why is a fingerprint scanner under the display so great? From a tech perspective, pretty cool. From a practicality perspective, meh. Scanners on the side or back of phones are great and very practical/comfortable. I don't see the benefit of under display fingerprint scanners.
