Alleged HTC One Max fingerprint scanner iconography has leaked, and they might indicate that more than one finger will be in play with the rear sensor on the phablet.

Apple's Touch ID is mainly destined to be used with your thumb, unlocking the iPhone 5s the second you lay that finger on the new home key, but with the HTC One Max icons all digits are circled.

Whether or not that means you might log different fingers for different functions is too early to tell, as these look like taken straight out of an interactive manual on how to use the fingerprint scanner, and that might be all there is to it. The One Max is expected to be announced next week, and we can't wait to see what HTC has in store with its first phablet.
