Title: Top 5 amazing sensors in Samsung galaxy S6 that make life easier.

Samsung is one of the most popular android device marketers because of a lot of its own components in its phones and tablets. Back in 2010, when the first generation of Samsung’s flagship Smartphone, Galaxy S, was introduced, it had five sensors.  Four years later, Samsung Galaxy S5 doubled that number to ten. And recently in April 10, 2015, the tech giants released Samsung Galaxy S6 which is one of our favorite smartphones of 2015 so far. Let’s have a review with technical details and guidelines on each of these amazing sensors:

Fingerprint Scanner Sensor

 

The biggest sensor update on the S6 is the fingerprint scanner, located inside the home button. You simply have to rest your finger (or thumb) on the button for the S6 to be able to read it. It can recognize up to four prints. You can use it to unlock apps and services, or to log in to a website using your fingerprint.

The first time you turn on your new S6 or S6 Edge, you're asked to register a fingerprint with the device as part of the setup process. Later you can add more like the process below:

Proximity Sensor

 

This one recognizes situations where the user places the Smartphone close to his or her face. It can immediately make a phone call and turn off the screen to prevent unnecessary touch interaction while the user is on the phone.
Also when it is difficult to periodically pressing the wake/lock button to check the weather or glance over any notification, there is an easier method where you simply hover your hand over the device to wake the screen.
In order to activate this feature, known as "Gesture wake up," navigate to Settings -> Accessibility -> Dexterity and interaction -> Gesture wake up. Make sure to toggle it on.

Users can check their heart rate through the S Health app. By following the instructions that the S Health provides, users simply need to gently press their finger against the heart rate sensor, which is located on the bottom of the camera on the back panel.

The Magnetometer Sensor

 

The Samsung Galaxy S6 has a small electronic compass integrated. This measures the magnetic currents and thus can determine the compass direction.
You have to download a app from the Google Play Store or Amazon Marketplace and calibrate the compass to use the compass feature. Some popular apps are Android Compass, Pinux compass and Super Compass.

The light Sensor
