Samsung is expected to bring new features with the upcoming Galaxy Note 7 and one of them is the iris scanner. We've seen leaked screenshot of the iris scanner as a security option in the settings menu and the front panel where there are additional cutouts at the top. The latest leak will show you how the iris scanner works on the Galaxy Note 7.
You have to hold the device 25 to 35 cm away from your face with the screen facing towards you. Then, you have to align your eyes with the two circles shown on the display for the iris scanner to begin the authentication process. However, it is not known how long the authentication process will take. Samsung has also registered the Galaxy Iris and Galaxy Eyeprint trademarks for this feature.
The Galaxy Note 7 will officially be announced on 2nd August in New York. The early listing of the device on IDA's website suggests that the Galaxy Note 7 could possibly hit retail shelves soon after the launch event.
