I thought the same (about the fingerprint reader), but in 2 days I was converted. I love it on the front. I use my thumb to unlock and it's flawless. Nice bonus

I thought the same (about the fingerprint reader), but in 2 days I was converted. I love it on the front. I use my thumb to unlock and it's flawless. Nice bonus: you can use a fingerprint to lock, too. I upgraded from a 5x because I need more storage, and I've never adapted to a new phone so quick.
