Hey folks. Got a pixel 7 pro, and it’s been alright, except suddenly, if I press the fingerprint sensor on the lock screen for just a split second, it makes the WHOLE SCREEN go full-brightness, with a green tinge. I know it’s always lit up the scanner area, which is all it lights up if I hold the sensor, but if I release it early it’s actually very uncomfortable. Any suggestions besides the obvious “don’t let go 5head”? Is this an android version bug, a hardware issue? Anyone else had this happen?

    *most pixels

    The 4XL had the best face detection in the industry, employing an additional infrared camera with its own invisible light.

      I didn’t buy a pixel 4 because it was Google’s first attempt at face unlock. Decided to spice things up and get an iPhone for a change. FaceID is fanfuckingtadtic and I’m sad that my pixel 7 doesn’t have proper face unlock.

      Imo: rear mounted fingerprint sensor > proper face unlock > under screen fingerprint.
