Video: Google Android’s new way to unlock phone screen

15 October 2008 No Comment

When Apple came up with its revolutionary horizontal slide to unlock the iPhone’s screen, it clearly made a lot of people without iPhones jealous. Now Google Android is doing something similar but not entirely the same, much more fuzzy just to unlock a screen I would say! Users need to challenge 9 dots and they have to swipe their finger on the right way to unlock the screen!

According to reports, users need to configure the pattern at least using 4 dots combination or up to 9 dots, it means there are 389112 of combination possibilities… Check out the quick video below, what do you think? Seems fun but has Google overdone it?
