The X5 Pro may have great difficulty in surprise when it was announced that Vivo continues this momentum. Several features of smartphones have already been announced and the list goes on today. It will be able to recognize the user through his eye.
Vivo is preparing once again to expand its X5 range. Several teasers have aired to announce the arrival of a declination Pro, which is already shaping up as a nice evolution of the X5. Besides switching to Android 5.0 Lollipop, she will introduce a 2.5D particular screen, phase-detection autofocus camera and photo with a webcam capable of outputting 32 megapixel selfies. And the list continues to grow before the announcement.
A new teaser has just to highlight another feature of the X5 Pro. Released as always on Weibo, he fit the smartphone and applications protected behind a shield, symbol obviously security. So, on what technology Vivo he decided to bet to ensure it? Point fingerprint reader here. It is the eye of the user that will unlock the smartphone and the data it deems too sensitive.
The X5 Pro will not be the first smartphone to be able to identify the user in this way. ZTE took advantage of the last MWC to present the Grand S3, which was precisely one of the features. And we had also expressed some reservations about it. If the human eye is more difficult to copy a fingerprint and that reading requires no additional components (webcam is charging), authentication is longer and its success depends logically light conditions.
Rest now whether Vivo managed to circumvent these constraints or not. Response during the official presentation, either very soon if all goes as planned. It is rumored that it will occur in early May.
