Xiaomi Mi7 can use Face Recognition

Xiaomi can take the fingerprint sensor off of Apple's footprint on the upcoming device Xiaomi Mi7 and replace it with face recognition. According to GizOK, Xiaomi plans to introduce a 3D face unlocking technology similar to Face ID on iPhone X.


This new news contradicts previous reports that Xiaomi will use an in-screen fingerprint scanner. The firm was expected to use the on-screen fingerprint sensor Synaptics recently described.

In addition, under-screen sensors were supported by the images of GizOK. In these depictions the device looked both forward and backward, the device had dual cameras, 18: 9 screen and fine edges. The edge-to-corner display is similar to Xiaomi Mi Mix 2.

Xiaomi's CEO, Lei Jun, said earlier that Mi 7 will use the Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 processor. But there is not much verified information about the device yet.

During this time of the year, Qualcomm and Vivo displayed in-screen fingerprint scanners, even though the display was on a prototype device, the technology seemed impressive. However, it is a bit slow. One possibility is that due to late response times, Xiaomi Mi MIX 3 may have decided to give up the in-screen fingerprint sensor and go off the iPhone X path.
