News & Reviews:   biometric authentication

Looks like Android users are in for a treat. Reportedly, Google announced that you will be able to use biometric authentication for purchases from the Play Store. That said, what should you know about it?

When Samsung first released the Galaxy S10 series, they have also introduced a new way for biometric authentication that uses an ultrasonic fingerprint sensor rather than the conventional optical sensor. After using it for almost two years on different smartphone series, the company might finally bring an upgrade to the fingerprint sensor and we'll see it when the Galaxy S21 series releases.

In an age when identity theft is possible, it's not a surprise to see that security is taken seriously. So important that the Singapore government plans to do it on a national level. Specifically, our friends from the Lion City are about to have facial verification rolled out nationwide.
