FaceID is not impractical or may be update fixed the vulnerability.

You seemed too confident quoting people who disagree with Apple's implementation of the Faceid.
We know that it's secure but a handful of videos r available to show that it is hackable. Some security firms can do that for u for a few buck.
Apple once said that it's 1 out of a billion but today, Asians with similar looks can unlock the damn thing.

Am enjoying every known tech today. Enjoy it also and stop making ur preference obvious.

You got me all wrong, especially when you said I have a preference for Face ID.

But it's okay, Let's just all enjoy today's tech trends!

He might be disappointed. Samsung doesn't push updates for their budget devices frequently while with Xiaomi, there are regular updates and one "stable" update would could ruin his entire experience.
i dont agree with you. most xaiomi product push updates for their devices

Baba nice one. But u urself know u cannot trust the face id on the infinix, even Samsung galaxy s9 intelligent scan still can't match iPhone X's face id. I just think comparing it with the iPhone X was not necessary. Nice feature to have though, but just like u said.. if I have this phone I'll stick with using the fingerprint. cheers
and who told you? Samsung face id uses iris scanner and face id at the same time. Talk what you know biko.. Have you seen oneplus5t face id? . Its the fastest among iPhone X and Sammy.

There we go again with the OnePlus 5T facial unlock. For God's sake even OnePlus states that their facial unlock is just for convenience and not the most secure. That thing uses only the front facing camera, no any other sensors involved so tell me why won't it be the fastest?

Enough with the balderdash, young man.

Go read on the reasons why the Face ID was maneuvered. You have Google but you instead chose to be ignorant. Spoiler alert, Face ID wasn't well set up on those phones.

Hacked by many? Who's this guy? Face ID is more accurate than fingerprint or iris scanner. You think it's to use someone's finger to unlock a phone while sleeping is what we're talking about? Or lift a print from a mug? If you haven't used the iPhone X Face ID, enter a store and see how good it is.

Apple didn't invent the notch I agree but they are the leading power consumer. Some of their implemented features become popular and get adopted by other OEMs including Samsung. Which phone brand will follow Essential and Sharp to do notch?

It's after Apple did, other brands went crazy with the concept. Same as Touch ID, dual cameras, headphone jack removal, etc...

Dude I just said Apple uses the same technology as Microsoft kinect for face id

Even their screen,,,, Samsung had to produce it for the iPhone X since Samsung are the master of screens

You see, you got the asterisked part partly wrong.

It's true that Samsung supplied Apple with iPhone X screen. But, Apple tuned these screens to their own standards and specifications, so much so that, Samsung can't lay claim on the quality of screens on the iPhone X.

See it as Samsung providing the semi-finished products, while Apple works with that to make the finished product.

And? Did you say anything intelligent?

Apple bought components just like other OEMs do and used it on their phones, even making it better.

What does that have to do with Face ID being accurate?

Bros the thing just tire me. Apple contract companies to make their parts, Samsung are the biggest Oled suppliers. When they use to make chips for Apple people said what will Apple do if Samsung stop making their chips.. well Apple dropped Samsung for the A10 and A11 chips and those chips are even better. But Apple make their own software and nobody talks. What do Samsung have in terms of software? They even tried to copy Siri first with S voice which failed and now with Bixby which nobody uses.

The point is no company can be a jack of all trade, Apple thrives in software (IOS abd Mac), what do Samsung have? Let me guess Tizen? Lol. Thank God for Google and Microsoft.

Samsung also buys Sony camera sensors, Qualcomm SOCs, etc
Huawei does
Xiaomi does
LG, Sony, etc, etc

This is the order of the world. I don't know how people see that as an opportunity for comparison.

OK face Id is accurate....

But note apple is building a in display fingerprint

Note vivo launched in display fingerprint

And huawei made it mainstream with the huawei mate RS Porsche Design (3x more expensive than iPhone X,,,,,, and the reasons are clear)

Again face id is accurate but every security system has a flaw
