minus-squareRhynoplaz@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up29·3 months agoMy fingerprint scanner was on the back, but now it’s on the front, and can’t identify me as regularly as it did before. I’ve gotten used to the new location, but I can’t forgive making it less accurate than it used to be.
minus-squareDesolateMood@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up9·3 months agoMy god, I upgraded from an S9 to an S22 and seeing the fingerprint scanner on the front baffled me. With a screen protector on I unlock it on the first try maybe 25% of the time

I really preferred having it on the back too; was more ergonomic. ponders I guess that the front is maybe easier to use a thumbprint or something on. That being said, regarding accuracy, it might also have a lower false-positive rate, which is maybe something that you’d want.
