Google is unveiling the Pixel 9 family on August 13, which is about two months sooner than standard. We beforehand speculated that this might be a method to forestall leaks, however over the previous few days we have already seen two hands-on videos, in order that clearly is not working.
Anyway, a brand new report at the moment claims that the Pixel 9, Pixel 9 Pro, and Pixel 9 Pro XL will all have ultrasonic in-display fingerprint sensors. Thus far, all Pixels used optical in-display scanners, and now they’re apparently switching to the very same sensor mannequin that Samsung is utilizing in its Galaxy S24 series.
The 3D Sonic Gen 2 (QFS4008) sensor is made by Qualcomm. Ultrasonic sensors need not mild up the a part of the show that your finger touches with a view to scan your print, and so they’re additionally usually sooner and extra dependable than optical ones, so this can be a good step ahead – oh, and ultrasonic sensors additionally work in case your finger is moist.
The Pixel 9 Pro Fold will stick to a side-mounted capacitive sensor embedded into its energy button, based on the identical report.
