- Hey, I'm Vlad with The Verge, here at CES 2018.

the first one to have a fingerprint censor

So this is the first phone to have the fingerprint censor

Which is available to use as you would with

It works exactly like the Capacity fingerprint censor

But the difference and the advantage now is that

but you still have the fingerprint sensor

If you have no bezels, you have no where to put it.

So, a lot of companies had to come up with compromises.

Samsung's solution was to put it on the back

There were many reports that Samsung and Apple

were trying to integrate it into the display itself.

And that's exactly what Vivo has done here

Vivo is the first company to introduce this.

It's very likely that there'll be others following on,

the usual capacative fingerprint sensor does.

But it's just integrated into the display.

you're using the display as you would on any other phone.

you put your finger on it and it authenticates you.

It does the usual biometrical authentication.

Now, this only works with OLED panels because it's optical.

And there's a synaptics sensor down here at the bottom

The only difference relative to the usual

It isn't quite as lightning-fast as something like,

It's not something that really slows you down.

Even though it's not terribly well-known globally

Owing to a lot of success in it's native market of China.

This companies the first to come out with this

Synaptics integrated fingerprint sensor solution.

But I'm confident that there'll be a whole bunch of others

joining it as we go through the year 2018.

The phone that we're looking at here at CES

No fingerprint sensor on the back because obviously

I'm liking the fact that it has a headphone jack.

But I'm noticing right next to the headphone jack

is a micro USB port which doesn't make much sense to me.

and having this brand new, futuristic technology

So, this might not be the phone you end up buying

But I'm confident that the technology itself,

a whole bunch of people are going to want and like.

In part because it's so futuristic feeling.
