For myself, I would rather have face ID then have touch ID on the back of the 
phone, which I think is stupid, or under the screen, where I have to guess at 
where the sensor might be. I thought Samsung had a good idea when they put it 
on the side button with the galaxy, was it the nine or the 10 the cheap one I 
think it was 10 year or something? That made some sense. Otherwise, I don’t see 
the issue with Face ID. My 10 R works fine.
