The next day, IHS Technology's China Research Director Wang Yang @ Kevin Wang's diary issued a microblogging report saying: "The supply chain shows that Xiaomi 5S uses Qualcomm's ultrasonic fingerprinting technology to hide the sensor under the glass. There is no punch on the board. This is the industry's first "Under Glass" fingerprint recognition phone."

A few days ago, posted friends formally exposed the spy photos of suspected millet 5s Plus. From the exposure of the spy photos, the aircraft's fuselage is relatively slender, the edge part also seems to use a curved design, with a larger circular camera, but because the photos are more blurred, so can not determine whether the LED flash Added laser focus module.

Coincidentally, Apple's recent release of the iPhone 7, one of the biggest innovations, was the cancellation of the physical Home button, which has long been the iPhone's logo, and replaced it with a vibration feedback system called the Taptic Engine. And some analysts believe that: iPhone 7 as a transition, Apple will completely bid farewell to the entity Home key on the iPhone 8 next year, using similar fingerprinting technology of Qualcomm for non-contact fingerprint unlocking. It seems that in this function, Xiaomi 5s may have to lead the iPhone in the name of "black technology."
