The security feature will allow users to lock or unlock their devices by simply gazing at it. Some previous reports too hinted at Samsung working on new security technology to match up iPhone 5S' fingerprint sensor.
Earlier this week, there were reports that Samsung is planning move up the launch of Galaxy S5 to January 2014. A report by South Korean internet giant Naver says that the Galaxy S5 will be unveiled in January 2014 and will hit the shelves the following month. The dissapointing sales of Galaxy S4 are said to be behind the decision.
Galaxy S5's January launch means that Galaxy S4 would spend the least amount of time at the top of the company's smartphone portfolio among all Galaxy S series phones. Both Samsung Galaxy S and Galaxy S III remained on the top of the chain for a year each, while Galaxy S II was the flagship smartphone for 15 months.
The report also says that the Galaxy S5 will have Samsung's 64-bit eight-core Exynos 5430 chipset. Samsung Galaxy S5 is also expected to have a 16MP camera with optical image stabilization and better performance in low-light conditions. The recently unveiled Isocell sensor is also expected to debut with this smartphone.
Some rumours also point towards a waterproof and dust-resistant body and a curved and unbreakable screen. Samsung has also filed a patent for the metal body designed for smartphones, suggesting a change in material of construction for next year's top handset.
Samsung recently unveiled the world's first smartphone with a curved screen, named Galaxy Round.
