Samsung Galaxy Note7 iris scanner feature (vdeo)

The Samsung Galaxy Note7 has been rumored to feature an iris scanner and we can now confirm it's real based on a recently posted video. In the video, the iris scanner is chosen as a method of unlocking the phone

 

The iris scanner seems pretty snappy. Hopefully, it will stay this way with increased usage. The Galaxy Note7 has been a frequent visitor in the rumor mill and understandably so as Samsung will unveil it on August 2. So far we know the phone will rock a 5.7" display of QHD resolution with a slight curve on both sides.

Samsung will revamp TouchWiz into Grace UI built on top of Android 6.0 Marshmallow. Inside the phone is a Snapdragon 820 with 4GB of RAM (though 6GB versions will be available too). The camera setup matches the Galaxy S7 - 12MP dual pixel on the back, 5MP on the front.
