Hi mary, You are so worried about Face Id yet you want to buy one of the new phones? I am not worried about it at all and actually think for me it would be better since often when I do lots of woodworking I can't use Touch Id for days because my fingers have little cuts, I get glue on them etc. I have a 6S Plus and had the battery replaced by Apple a little over 3 months ago and while I'd love to have a waterproof phone, I see little other incentive to upgrade. I guess if I were on a plan where I paid lots of money to have the option to upgrade every year I'd of course do it, but at this point I like my $49 plan (canadian Dollars) with unlimited calling, texting and 6Gb of data so that means for me that I'd have to buy a phone at full price and that's just not happening. I am, however, much more tempted by the Apple Watch 4, my wife and I both have second generation Apple Watches and I do find it frustrating how slow they sometimes are.

But have you never been out in public and had your iPhone on the table say at a coffee shop or wherever. What would stop somebody from snatching your iPhone even if it was locked and that’s it for you? I just think it’s a security issue. And it’s one that has been totally glossed over by most folks. Imagine you’re in a big city. Can’t you imagine the notion that somebody could take your phone and unlock it and go away and you never even knew it was gone until it was too late? Haven’t you heard of folks having their pockets picked? Again I say, it is a security issue. Not for too many people, because it wouldn’t affect the sighted. And apparently it doesn’t affect all blind people, although I do know folks who say that even for them, when they can’t use the attention feature, went home, they have a turned off, because it is a hassle.
