The Galaxy S10 might not be the first Samsung phone with an in-display fingerprint reader
June 21, 2025
Rumors strongly suggest that theSamsung Galaxy S10will feature an in-display fingerprint reader for the first time in anySamsungflagship. According to a recent rumor, however, the Galaxy A (2019) models will also get in-display fingerprint readers.
The rumor came from known leakerIce Universe, who did not divulge much else about the Galaxy A (2019) smartphones. Something to keep in mind is that theGalaxy A8 and A8 Pluslaunched before theGalaxy S9 and S9 Plus. This means that, if the rumor turns out to be true, the Galaxy A (2019) smartphones might be the first Samsung devices with in-display fingerprint readers.
Wherever the technology shows up first, vivo and OPPO already beat Samsung to the punch with thevivo NexandOPPO Find X, respectively. The OPPO Find X will launch in August, while the vivo Nex is already available in China and will launch soon in India and Malaysia.
The rumor also alleged that the Galaxy Note 10 will also have an in-display fingerprint reader. That makes sense, since the Galaxy S10 will likely feature the same tech.
Finally, the rumor reiterated that the Galaxy S10 will come in three models: 5.8-inch, 6.1-inch, and 6.4-inch displays. The larger two models reportedly features Qualcomm’s in-display fingerprint reader, while the larger 6.4-inch model reportedly features three main cameras.
