It added that Fingerprint Shortcuts will be seen in the new device, allowing users to "assign applications or specific functions as shortcuts to each registered fingerprint."
Samsung Electronics may also introduce an Ultrasonic Cover in Galaxy Note 4, which will come as huge help to users with vision-related disabilities, reported Sammobile. The ultrasonic sensor can come handy for people with vision problem, as it can detect nearby objects.
