Is There A Fingerprint Sensor on the Moto E5 Play?

[TechTimid]

I don't think I would ever use it, but do you know if there's a fingerprint sensor on the Moto E5 Play?

I think if there is one it would be on the "M" in back of the phone, but it doesn't seem to show anything there.

It's located below the display. See these setup instructions.

Oh wait, what model do you have? It seems that the fingerprint sensor is only available on certain models sold in the US.

I think the model # is XT1921-2, doesn't look like it specified in your links Javier, unless I just didn't see it.

That model is the Moto E5 Cruise, basically an E5 Play with some little differences. The fingerprint sensor is not available on some variants (Boost and Cricket for example). Not sure which one is yours.

Thanks, my phone was $79.99 with Consumer Cellular as the carrier...so, it's likely the cheap E5 Play that doesn't have the fingerprint feature.

Yes, unfortunatey it looks that way.

Thanks, I wasn't interested to use that feature anyway.
