While we don’t know much about the Galaxy S9 yet, reports and rumors Go on with surface. Samsung is already working hard for its next phone and new information is starting to leak out. One of them is that Samsung will copy the iPhone X notch, but not in the way you might think.
Both the Galaxy S8 and iPhone X had one purpose, at least according to rumors. Put the fingerprint scanner under the glass screen and you get a beautiful phone with a full front display.
This technology was not ready at the time, and both companies took a different approach to solving the problem. Samsung moved the fingerprint scanner to the back next to the camera. A place nobody likes. And Apple has completely removed the fingerprint scanner on the upcoming iPhone X. A TrueDepth camera notch was preferred at the top of the screen for the facial recognition system.

So what’s next for Samsung and Apple? The obvious answer and what the rumors suggest is a fingerprint scanner inside the screen, under the glass. However, there is a small chance that it won’t work for Samsung in early 2018. This is mainly because they want to launch the Galaxy S9 earlier than ever to compete with the new iPhone X.
If Samsung pulls up the Galaxy S9’s release date, it may be a few more months until the embedded fingerprint scanner technology. Putting them in the same situation as the Galaxy Note 8 is having to move or remove the fingerprint scanner altogether. there iPhone X “notch” comes in.
brand new A rumor from GalaxyClub It suggests that Samsung will bring the fingerprint scanner back to the front of the Galaxy S9. According to their sources, Samsung recently filed for a patent, which is an alternative plan for the fingerprint scanner. Put a notch for the sensor at the bottom of the screen like the iPhone X and Essential Phone. This will still provide the end-to-end display buyers have been waiting for and also give them a usable fingerprint scanner.
The Galaxy S9 may only end with a notch at the bottom of the screen like the iPhone X. Note that this is just a rumor or a report about a patent from Samsung. It’s possible the company will run the fingerprint scanner inside the screen and not need to add any notches on the front. This is the worst case scenario more than anything.
However, we’re getting reports that Samsung may be planning something similar to Apple’s TrueDepth camera on the top of the new iPhone X. Whether this is a notch on the screen or an addition to the sensors on the Galaxy S8, we don’t know.
