    All of the phones I have had have had practically flat fingerprint sensors, For example, the Pixel 3a XL which is closest to me right now has an inwards facing sensor.

      I believe OP was referring to the fact you’d need to pick up the phone to access the rear sensor, not about if the phone sits flat.

        Oh, I guess so. I get that, but facial recognition does exist, and that’s what I use mainly, even if my phone’s fingerprint sensor is accessible.
