Top 5 reasons to like Vivo's In-Display fingerprint scanner

1. Maximized smartphone display - The first time fingerprint scanners were introduced to us, it comes with a thumbnail-sized button at the bottom display of a smartphone. But now, with an in-display fingerprint scanner, we get a whole lot of screen, ditching the traditional home/fingerprint button. 

2. Another security option - Aside from the face unlock that we currently have in our smartphones, the in-display fingerprint sensor is not just another security feature, but a more convenient and more secure option.

3. Authorize access with wet fingers! - We use our smartphones all-day long. And personally, after washing my hands and using a smartphone with a physical home button before, would not let me access my phone without drying my hands first! But with an in-display fingerprint scanner, you can access your messages just by a quick tap of fingers on the screen. Cool, right?

4. Faster and more secure - Since most of us are using are smartphones to do our personal affairs, from banking transactions to accessing sensitive documents, continuous authentication is needed. With an in-display fingerprint scanner, we get a faster authentication without compromising security.

5. A taste of things to come - Since the introduction of this in-display fingerprint scanner, we have yet to open more windows to the future. This latest security technology is a testament that innovations are not stopping, they are continuously coming.

The Vivo X21 is priced at PHP 29,999. It will be available nationwide starting June 22, 2018.
