Fujitsu Arrows NX F-04G, the first smartphone that features an iris scanner, is now available in Japan through NTT DoCoMo.
It has been rumored that Microsoft will be the first to introduce an iris scanner on a mobile phone, but Fujitsu took over this opportunity as it recently launched its Arrows NX F-04G that features such technology.
It has an iris scanner called Iris Passport for biometric authentication of its user instead of the popular fingerprint scanner. The Iris Passport can unlock the smartphone in a second and can be used in any app that requires passwords, and can distinguish the differences of the eyes between twins trying to unlock the phone, Phon Arena reported.
Aside from the innovative technology aforementioned, it also armed with flagship specs which could go head to head with the Samsung Galaxy S6 and other available flagships in the market.
