ZTE, a leading global mobile device maker, today announced at the Mobile
World Congress 2015 in Barcelona that a new flagship device, the ZTE
Grand S3, will be launched with a pioneering eye-based biometric
solution from EyeVerify. The solution, Eyeprint ID ™, allows users a
password-free method of unlocking the Grand S3, offering an enhanced
level of privacy and security to the device. ZTE’s Grand S3 is one of
the first smartphones in the world to offer this solution.
“We are delighted to announce our partnership with EyeVerify that
brings their leading Eyeprint ID™ solution to the ZTE Grand S3,” said
Adam ZENG Xuezhong, Executive Vice President of ZTE Corporation and CEO
of ZTE Mobile Devices. “Our ZTE Grand series of smartphones is focused
on offering the most secure devices in the market for business users
worldwide. Coupled with EyeVerify’s leading solution, the ZTE Grand S3
represents an unbeatable option for smartphone privacy.”
Eyeprint ID™ offers ZTE Grand S3 users an innovative password-free
mobile experience that is convenient, secure and private. The
cutting-edge solution works by imaging unique vein patterns in the human
eye using the Grand S3’s front facing camera.
"EyeVerify is excited to launch Eyeprint ID™ for users of ZTE devices
- enabling highly accurate biometric authentication that eliminates
password pain," said Chris Barnett, EVP Global Sales & Marketing at
EyeVerify.
Prior to its debut at Mobile World Congress 2015, the ZTE Grand S3
was initially launched domestically in China on January 17th, 2015. The
Grand S3 received an iF DESIGN AWARD 2015 in recognition of its
top-class design, which is based on ZTE’s ‘minimalist design
philosophy’.
Eyeprint ID™ will feature in upcoming devices in ZTE’s Grand series,
and will soon be integrated with mobile payment and other applications.
The enhanced privacy offered by Eyeprint ID™ positions devices in ZTE’s
Grand series among the most secure devices for business users in the
market. To date, devices in ZTE’s Grand series have sold more than 5
million units globally, including the Grand S, Grand Memo, Grand Memo
5S, Grand S2, and Grand X Max in the United States. The original ZTE
Grand S and Grand S2 first appeared at CES 2013 and 2014 respectively,
with the Grand S representing the first Grand series device made
available in the U.S. market in 2013.
The enhanced ZTE Grand S3 with Eyeprint ID™ is currently available for purchase online in China, priced at 2999 RMB.
