Drip, drip, leaked video shows the Galaxy Note 7’s iris scanner

In yet another drip by drip leak leading up to the August release of the Galaxy Note 7 today we get a very quick look at what is purported to be the iris scanning feature that has been widely speculated about as being incorporated into the Note 7.

The video shows what looks to be a red light (top left as you look at it) shining on the users face, and eyes, and then the screen just unlocking. If accurate this would be the first glimpse of yet another way to authenticate yourself with your phone.

Here is the current state of the note 7 rumours:

There’s not a lot there just yet, but as the release date quickly approaches we’re sure the leaks and rumours will continue.

Let us know if you think an iris scanner is a gimmick or a useful inclusion?
