I'm also now using the iPhone x. personally, give me the touch ID any day, as it could still be easily worked if for example, the phone was in something like a bumbag, where as this pesky face id can't. when I use my phone whilst I am horse riding for example, I prefer to keep it in the bumbag, as then there is 0 risk of it dropping to the ground. thanks to which ever idiot decided to do away with touch ID however, this is now considerably less easy, as I either have to take it out for the face ID, or mess around entering the pass code. very not ideal from my point of view, which is rather a big shame, as it is a really nice phone apart from this issue.

I personally find the facial id more secure and faster than the touch id ever was. Also who ever said that a blind person could not use attention as part of the facial id never has tried it. I use it all the time without issues. Also for the person who said they like the touch id easier for the could unlock their phone while it was on desk or in their lap, I could do the very same thing as you do. Never have issues with it. The gestures used are super easy and now that I have switched from the touch id,. I would never go back. I have no intent to get a new phone since 30 minutes better battery life does not make it worth operating it. Maybe next year. I saw the largest phone and I find it way to bid. I would not want to Barry a iPad as a phone. My opinion only. Have a great day. Sincerely, Michael maslo > On Sep 12, 2018, at 20:02, kitty hevener <kheve...@earthlink.net> wrote: > > me too.
