REAR MOUNTED FINGERPRINT SENSORS AND FRONT FACING FINGERPRINT SENSORS:WHAT'S YOUR TAKE?

There has been this huge debate on many tech blogs that the front facing fingerprint sensors trump the rear mounted ones in terms of use. Well,since I can't possibly come up with an accurate answer,I'll be giving the pros and cons of each one,so you can decide for yourself. Here goes:

FRONT MOUNTED FINGERPRINT SENSORS
PROS:

1. Have you ever had that experience where your phone is lying flat on your desk,the fingerprint sensor behind,and you want to unlock your phone,but not take it off the desk? The front facing sensor helps here,as you can simply touch it and gain access to your phone.
2. PRESS OPTION: These types of sensors allow you to press your fingers on them for more detailed scanning.
CONS
1. No added features like camera shutter,browse through pics as seen on the Hot S fingerprint sensor which is rear mounted.
2. That annoying fact that you have to reach all the way to the bottom of your phone just to unlock it f you accidentally locked it,especially if your phone has a large screen.
3. It needs a home buttonv for it to be in the front,and I really dingt like other home buttons except Samsung's and Apple's.

1. It is where your finger naturally falls when you pick up your phone,which means that split second which you use to touch the home button is saved.
2. The phone looks more appealing,ass the presence of a small circle or square(haven't seen any triangles) after your camera gives a good feeling.
3. Added functionality like the ability to take pics with your print,browse through photos,answer a call,change music,etc. These options are very much appreciated.
CONS
1. Why must you pick up your phone all the time? This is the first con in a question format.
2. I think number 1 is all.
Anyway,these are my thoughts. I really want to see yours. And thanks to the readers who have been commenting since,I really appreciate it. Keep up the good work.

How smartphone cameras work

Image
The fact that people take a lot of photos on their smartphone is nothing new. In fact,many manufacturers now make phones which emphasize the camera as the main selling point of the phone. The Infinix Zero 4, Camon CX ,HOT S,many phones from many manufacturers emphasize on taking great shots. But many people do not know how these cameras work. So,I'll explain. There are six basic steps in taking photos on a smartphone camera. They are: 1. The user (or smartphone) focuses on the object. 2. Light enters into the lens.(light is everything on photography) 3. The arpeture controls how much light enters into the lens. 4. The shutter determines how long the sensor is exposed to light 5. The sensor captures the image 6. Post processing takes place in the software of the phone. There may also be some noise reduction. Since most of the machines that do this are relatively simple machines,they all follow the laws of physics. Now,in smartphones,some problems will arise. These problems ...

Samsung Galaxy S9 Review For years,Samsung has been the pinnacle of Android phones ,engaged in an extremely stiff competition with the epitome of smartphone greatness in the sense of the iPhone. For a long time,the iPhone has been the definition of what a smartphone should be,with iPhones starring in commercials,as the template for website performance tests,game tests,celebrities carry them,and this is just to name a few.And Samsung has tried to change this orientation for years.They created their 'S' smartphone variants to take on the Apple flagships and try to push their phones as iPhones with flashier designs and more functions than you could use. They basically made iPhones running Android. And each year,the next...

iPHONE SE Review 2017:Is it still worth your money?

Image
It's not design nostalgia. It's not simply size. One month at tycoontech and Apple's iPhone SE is almost... magic. Do you really need to be told that an iPhone SE is the right phone for you? That one of the only devices with both a 4-inch screen and a current-generation spec sheet is worth your money? Of course not. But what I can help you with is how it feels to go from an iPhone 6s Plus or an iPhone 6s back to the iPhone 5s form factor, and how it impacts your life in meaningful, often unexpected ways. iPhone SE is a wonderful, almost-perfect iPhone. But its imperfections may gall some potential buyers, because it lacks much of what makes the latest, albeit far more expensive, iPhones what they are. Given that I have never used any iPhone for more than 5 minutes(except the iPhone 7) the fact that I like this phone means a lot to me. Anyway,here's what you lose with the iPhone SE. Obviously, by going from an iPhone 6s or 6s Plus you lose quite a bit of what m...
