A spokesperson from the South Korean firm has said it is “unlikely” that the S9 will be shown off at CES, the Korea Herald reports.
That suggests Samsung is yet to make up its mind, which is somewhat bizarre considering CES is just weeks away.
The rumoured Las Vegas appearance had been expected to be little more than a sneak preview, but it’s still slightly disappointing to hear that it might not happen.
The S9 is likely to look very similar to the S8 so there is will be some updation in the phone, but with one potentially very important design change.
Samsung is said to have decided to reposition the fingerprint scanner, shifting it to below the rear camera.
The S8’s fingerprint scanner, which sits right next to the rear camera lens, is the phone’s worst feature. If Samsung fixes it, the S9 will immediately be vastly superior to its predecessor. This is going to be the most successful gadget from Samsung and a new generation for the ' S ' series.
The Korea Herald is also reporting that the S9 will feature an improved iris scanner.
According to a source from the Samsung company, the new handset will use a 3-megapixel camera for the iris scanner, an upgrade from the 2-megapixel sensor used for the one on the S8.
The S8’s iris scanner was another disappointment, as it often fails or takes a frustrating amount of time to work.
SO LADIES AND GENTLEMEN GET READY FOR THE NEW SMART PHONE BY SAMSUNG.
