This is going to be branded as a gimmick, until Apple announce the same for their iPhone. Then it will be magical(tm)

Serious question: how's this different to the TouchID on many Apple devices? Yes the fingerprint sensor is integrated with the home button but it's still under a crystal cover - sapphire in Apple's case for durability but could just as well be glass and wouldn't have to be located under the home button.
