    Conclusion fantastic product great qualitypros great looks blue light wont bother your eyes long lasting if you dont stratch the clear window where you put your finger we had a software designed for its predecessor the 4000b and we just bought this one and plugged it in and works great without any software sdk or driver update needed

    Cons remember you need a special software to use this hardware because it requires you to install the digital persona drivers and in the fingerprint software to use the special digital persona sdk so make sure your software can use this model
