Finger print sensor

[shamdawg]

Does anyone know if the finger print sensor will wake and unlock the device or do you have to wake the screen with the power button then unlock it with the finger print sensor?

its wakes your device and take you to the home screen directly

I wonder how easy it'll be to accidentally wake and unlock while the phone is in a pocket.

No not always, but I do at times and I can be fidgety. For example, I go to check for my phone to make sure it is on me, with my nexus 6 when I do that I tend to tap on the back indentation.

Shrug, I know it wont be a common problem but something potentially happening now and then if one puts their hand in their pocket.

This will work nicely then. You can unlock the phone as your pulling it out of your pocket.

How you could forget the nexus 6 is in your pocket is beyond me, that phone is a beast amongst beasts

Very very true It's just a habit (like patting down a pocket to check that the keys are there)

Turn the phone face side up when inserted to pocket.

It will wake and unlock instantaneously without pressing the power button.

I don't like to assume, but I doubt it will be an issue because of proximity sensors. I would like to think Google has thought it out to not wake the device in this case if the phone senses its in your pocket or laying screen down on a table or something.
