Following the first leak of the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S10 a few weeks back, more images have surfaced of the flagship phone’s hole-punch display. The new leak also offers a first look at the Samsung Blockchain KeyStore app. The images were posted by Twitter user Ben Geskin, and first spotted by SamMobile.
Galaxy S10 leak shows hole-punch display and cryptocurrency wallet
The native cryptocurrency wallet app is described on the splash page as a “secure and convenient place for your cryptocurrency,” and will offer users the ability to import currencies like Ethereum, as well as use biometric authentication for security.
The “Infinity-O” hole-punch display, as they’re officially called, first showed up in Samsung’s A8 phones, which were only released in China. With Huawei introducing the hole-punch selfie camera as a solution to notched screens with the Nova 4, and the recently released Honor View 20 doubling down on the concept, it’s a design we’ll only be seeing more of in 2019 as more smartphone makers try to find creative and unobtrusive replacements to the now-iconic notch.
We’ll know all the details about the Galaxy S10 when it’s announced at Samsung’s Unpacked event February 20th, where the company will also show off a “fully functional” version of its foldable smartphone.
