Mom's iPhone X unlocked via FaceID by son Comments
AnonD-696124, 15 Nov 2017iphone has many issues but the Google pixel has more. i would suggest going to something like ... moreOr maybe, a smart consumer would just spend on a Samsung, HTC, Huawei, Asus, Xiaomi, or Sony high end phone with higher price tag but well worth it, durability wise.
Eske Rahn, 15 Nov 2017Well do you REALLY need to unlock your phone if your have a smashed face with or without detac... moreAt times where nobody will be able to help you, your phone is the only thing that could save you and your life.
What if you're on a boat/ship crash that is going to sink, and somehow you managed to jump off to the water. Other than the fact that your IP68-certified smartphone survived the water submersion, you would also be able to unlock it with a fingerprint scanner. And pressing one single button to call Siri is probably much easier than pressing two buttons just to do the same exact thing, right?

The oneplus 5t is expected to come with a new camera sensor and a new software optimization.

Scanner fingerprint is more safe.But apple want to invent fashion, non security.

So now kids... can take their parents iPhone X and buy things using Apple Pay?
FaceID is a total complete FAIL!

Reading all new gossips and comments about iPhone X and wondering I will be able to buy it in year 2019 may be when they drop its price to 1/3rd.

AnonymousDash, 15 Nov 2017During the keynote, they do say that the someone closely related to you may be able to unlock ... moreIf that's the case, then it's not "one in a million". Also, do others in the industry agree with Apple's one-in-a-million and one-in-50,000 rates?

Tann Hauser, 15 Nov 2017Of course, if phone screen smashed you cant even use pin.
But, with a fingerprint scanner on... moreWell do you REALLY need to unlock your phone if your have a smashed face with or without detached fingers?
Rather than taking narcies of your smashed body and post them on Faecesbook, it would be smarter to just call emergency - and you do NOT need to unlock your device for that...

Edupz, 15 Nov 2017It may be half-baked, but remember twins are almost identical, thus making it hard to differen... moreThe brothers in the UK were far apart in age though. And they were 1/2 brothers. Here's a link

Mayby aPples fAce-iD is invented by nerdy programmers with no kids? /S
But more seriously it is not that uncommon that kids look like one of their parents. So though the 1:1E6 claim might hold measured for a general population (and thus a random thief), it is no surprise that it is a MUCH lower rate with closely related members within the family.

I think FaceID and TouchID unlock success rates were switched. There is no way in hell that fingerprints are this common and there is no way in hell that all faces are that different.

Love the Community, 15 Nov 2017Implying that a glass-centric phone like iPhone X did survive something like a car crash that ... moreOf course, if phone screen smashed you cant even use pin.
But, with a fingerprint scanner on board you can at least unlock, even with your detached finger lying about, and use siri/G assistant to call help.
Anyways, keep off scanners and securities of any kind on your phone...just keep it safe and take care....
And dont pay 1000 bucks just for some advertised phone security option...
it could mean difference between survival n death in some situations....
that are probably more likely to happen than someone stealing or peeking into your secured prn collection.
