All cheap smartphones have a fingerprint sensor but all laptops dont have one. Is it because of security concerns or spacing reasons?

    Also fingerprint unlock missing would probably be a big no-no for most people even in budget class.

      Why I would agree with that in the past, these days I would disagree.

      People are not happy about having to do 2FA and such to login (people tend to gravitate towards simplicity), so they are looking for that same feature that they have by default on their phone that helps them simplify the login process, on their computers, moreso now.
