Not my experience. They are usually instant, but you need a flagship device, of course. Otherwise it’s comparing apples and oranges.

Blackmist@feddit.uk 6 months agoThe Pixel fingerprint scanner is so bad, you could end up locking it entirely by accident.
Behind-the-screen fingerprint scanners are an abomination.

The $1000 price tag on the Pixel tells me it’s a flagship device and yet the scanner is still trash.
But optical scanners just suck in general. I wish they’d bring back the rear sensor, it was so convenient both for unlocking and for having a shortcut to pulling down the notification shade.

Always reminds me of 1984’s telescreens. We’re almost there.

Mine works without issues since I removed the white circle and the unlocking animations.

First gen in-screen scanners were absolute trash. Borderline unusable. But the tech has improved quite a lot since the first ones. The one in my galaxy tab s9’s screen is fast and accurate.

My 5a sensor is fantastic (it is on the back). I’ll be sad when it’s time for this phone to go.
