Im about to get myself a S6 edge. Is the fingerprint sensor reliable and accurate? Is it fast?

I've been using the swipe lock screen which requieres no password and i dont need any password. Is the fingerprint more faster and efficient than the swipe?

Its been fast and accurate for me. You can run into occasional troubles if you 1) never wash your hands, or 2) never clean your phone (or at least the sensor).

I was leary about the fingerprint on how secure it would be. Since going to fingerprint login I've had six friends try to access with their fingers with no success. The log in is quick. Just don't be too quick with your finger press. Give it a second.

Fingerprint scanners are very safe except the ones on the iphone. The iphone fingerprint scanners can be fooled easily with a copied and 3D printed fingerprint.

I find the fingerprint scanner to be a tad bit slow on my Edge. Not slow as in seconds but definitely slower than Apples's when I use my iPad.
