Specifications of the Vivo X20 Plus, the first smartphone with a fingerprint sensor under the screen

As we announced a couple of days ago, yesterday was the day chosen by the Asian manufacturer to officially present the Vivo X20 Plus, a device that passed by the CES held in Las Vegas at the beginning of the year, but of which its specifications were not published.

The Vivo X20 Plus has become the first smartphone with the integrated fingerprint sensor, an integration that at the moment neither Apple (which has opted for Face ID) nor Samsung, which continues to rely on the sensor located on the back together with an iris scanner, have not planned to implement, but will soon offer a system of face recognition.

A couple of years ago, when the technology to unlock a terminal with our face was not yet fully developed, so integrating the fingerprint sensor under the screen was a fantastic idea, but today it is not so much. What is clear is that for a few months, we will not know if the main manufacturers choose to integrate the fingerprint recognition systems under the screen, or although this technology has arrived too late and the option of unlocking through the face it becomes the perfect substitute for the fingerprint sensor. Meanwhile, below we show you the specifications and price of the Vivo X20 Plus.
