This week\u2019s roundup of Mobile ID World\u2019s top stories is a smartphone-heavy one, featuring Samsung, Apple, 5G tech and more.<\/p>\n

The most popular article of the week was, in fact, first published last week \u2013 but the launch of Samsung\u2019s latest flagship smartphone is big news, and readers have shown a sustained interest in it. Samsung\u2019s Galaxy S20<\/strong> announcement is perhaps particularly notable for how quiet the company is about the device\u2019s biometric capabilities:<\/p>\n

Apple news is always popular too, of course. This week it took the form of further speculation about Apple\u2019s potential plans to bring back Touch ID<\/strong>, its trailblazing fingerprint scanning system. Touch ID has been completely replaced by facial recognition on Apple\u2019s latest iPhone devices, but rumor has it that the next version of Apple\u2019s budget-friendly iPhone SE could change that:<\/p>\n

In 5G news, this week brought the announcement that Fujitsu had been granted a provisional license for a 5G radio station<\/strong> by the Kanto Bureau of Telecommunications. This is a first in Japan, and the latest sign of 5G\u2019s mass market emergence:<\/p>\n

Moving away from smartphone-related tech, there was also some mobile news from the US Army<\/strong> that garnered reader attention this week. It concerns a software upgrade for a handheld device designed for in-the-field biometric identification:<\/p>\n

Finally, Mobile ID World readers also demonstrated ongoing interest in an item published at the end of last week: a new report from MarketsandMarkets predicting that the digital identity solutions market<\/strong> would see significant growth over the next few years:<\/p>\n
