One of the main new features of the Galaxy Note 7 is the iris sensor equipped on the front that lets you unlock the phone with a look. However, the phablet still brings a fingerprint sensor in the Home button known for its agility. Time to keep your phone protected, after all, what is the best method?
Android Headlines compared the two features side by side and reached a verdict. The evaluation consists of five items: security level, unlocking angle, moving unlock, speed and convenience.
Security Level
Fingerprints are safe enough for the day the day, but it seems that the iris recognition should be the ideal in the corporate world or for those who simply need more protection. And the reason is simple. While you can register up to 10 fingerprints on the Galaxy Note 7, only one person can record the iris to unlock
If you only use the unlock for digital, an unauthorized person get momentary access to your device can register one of his fingers secretly and have free pass forever without you knowing. With the iris scanner that is impossible.
recognition Angle
with the development of more accurate digital sensors and cheap, today it is possible to unlock the device resting fingers virtually any position. To unlock the Note, you can use your digital up upside down and have guaranteed to work. This is not possible with the iris scanner:. You need to position your face aligned with the machine, always standing in your way
- Best: Fingerprint
Motion Unlock
Unlocking the phone to the floor is not ideal with iris sensor. The release may even occur, but has more difficulty than the fingerprint sensor. Regardless of the user’s movement, the performance of the physical button sensor remains the same, streamlining the use when walking or running

Speed
In the release speed, both the iris sensor as the digital appear to give the same performance. Once the eyes or the user’s fingers are identified, the Note 7 unlocks almost on time, while waiting.
Convenience
While the digital player only requires the user to touch the finger on the physical button and press the iris reader needs more steps to be activated. To recognize the retina, Note 7 requires that the screen is on and the user makes a gesture up to turn the sensor and start sweeping your eyes. In the end, the traditional biometric sensor ends up being more responsive to use on a daily basis
