The placement of the fingerprint reader on the back of the phone strikes me as a bit odd. I get that they had to not copy iPhone placement, but this means you have to pickup the phone to unlock it, as opposed to just touch it.
Wonder how phone cases are going to handle that placement.

- bitmapbrother 11y agoWhy is it odd? That's where your fingers are - the back of the phone when holding it.
- sologoub 11y agoWhat if the phone is on your desk or holder in the car? You can always unlock it the normal way with pin or pattern, but it's not as convenient as the fingerprint reader.
- shostack 11y agoI can't think of a single use case where you are using your phone without touching the front of the screen in some way, whereas I can think of plenty where you have zero need to touch the back (ie. any time you have it in a mount or on a flat surface). Seems like a PITA.
