Galaxy 8 is unlikely to have it
Samsung Electronics' upcoming Galaxy S8 is unlikely to feature on-screen fingerprint scanning because its touch sensor partner Synaptics ran out of time for developing the related technology.
On-screen fingerprint was a highly-anticipated function for the new phone and Samsung threw a lot of money at Synaptics’ fledgling technology last year. Samsung wanted to embed a fingerprint scanner under the display to allow users to unlock the phone by placing their finger on the screen, not the physical home button on the bottom.
