Fujitsu has just started, Japan, the commercialization of Arrows NX F-04G. This smartphone has particularly enticing specs including a QHD screen and a Snapdragon 810. But its peculiarity is actually to look elsewhere: the terminal incorporates a biometric sensor can recognize the user of the iris to allow, or not some access.
Fujitsu is the first manufacturer to offer the general public a mobile device incorporating an iris recognition sensor. In March, Samsung had presented a Galaxy Tab 8.4 Pro equipped with an iris scanner, but it was intended for professionals. Arrows with NX F-04G, individuals (in Japan) can therefore now unlock their smartphone only looking at the front of the sensor device. The operation would only take 0.6 seconds to be achieved. The Iris Passport sensor could also be used to authorize the launch of some applications and even make contactless payments. The module is smart because it learns to progressively to more rapidly detect the iris of the user. Iris Passport has been integrated on the phone in partnership with the local operator NTT DoCoMo who wishes to create a standard biometric authentication for smartphones. Note that the system seems to work for eyeglass wearers.
The rest of the specs are pretty standard and reflects a high-end terminal. Thus we find a 5.2-inch slab supporting a QHD resolution (2560 x 1440 pixels) containing a Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 with 3 GB of RAM and 32GB of storage space. The definition of the main sensor from Sony climbs to 21 megapixels. For the battery, it takes on a capacity of 3120 mAh. At the software level, Lollipop Android 5.0 which controls all. Finally, there is a TransferJet chip, a wireless high-speed transfer technology developed by Sony that looks like Android Beam (transfers Bluetooth and NFC) in its operation, but with much higher transfer rates (above 300 Mbps ).
This smartphone is available in Japan for a price of about 670 euros. It should appeal to users fond of biometric sensors that do not like fingerprint sensors due to their low reliability in certain cases (greasy hands, wet, etc.). Unless the supersonic sensor Snapdragon Sense ID decides to make its appearance in terminals this year.
