Following rumors that Samsung was going to ditch the physical home button for the Galaxy S8 we got what might possibly be our first glimpse at the next flagship last week. If everything it revealed is true then the Galaxy S8's fingerprint sensor will be placed alongside the rear camera. Having a fingerprint sensor on the back presents its own challenges to users because they can't exactly get any use out of it if the device is lying on a flat surface.

So we've got to ask you, where do you think Samsung should put the fingerprint sensor? Vote below and let us know what you think about this in the comments below.

Results: 78 percent of those who voted believe that Samsung should keep the fingerprint sensor where it has always been. 17 percent believe that it should reposition the fingerprint sensor on the back like other companies and only 5 percent think it should be placed alongside the rear camera as Samsung is currently expected to do with the Galaxy S8.
