VIDEO: iPhone 5S vs Galaxy S5 Fingerprint scanner compared

The new Samsung Galaxy S5 comes with a finger print scanner making it similar as the iPhone 5S‘s Touch ID. While both scanners are placed on the home button, the execution of the two is actually quite different. The iPhone 5S scanner works seamlessly and you can unlock the device while the display is switched off. On the plus side, it recognises your finger print no matter which way you press on the home button as you would normally do on an iPhone.

For the Galaxy S5, there’s an extra step of waking up the device before you could unlock using your fingerprint. Furthermore, the Galaxy S5 requires you to swipe your finger directly on the home button from the top to bottom. This makes it awkward to unlock in a single hand but nevertheless it is still a better implementation than the rear mounted placement on the HTC One Max.

You can check out the video comparison of two after the break.
