Spark, 23 Nov 2023Come on .. don't spin that like it's a feature .. If that was what you think I was doing, then it's good that you didn't put 'Bright' in front of Spark 🤦♂️
What I was actually suggesting was unlocking a smartphone whilst driving, via any method, for any reason, is not a good idea.........

They want to be "unique" at expense of user convenience. Aside from headphone jack, if one thing prevents me to use iPhone would be lack of fingerprint scanner. I don't want to have to get my face to a certain position just to unlock a phone.
All android phones have some form of face unlock as a backup in case you're wearing gloves.

People love Face ID and how effortless it is and how well it works, i mean if you like pressing the scanner hundreds of times a day that's ok. For us iPhone users it feels like our phones aren't even locked because it works so automaticly.

ipads still use touchID. has will that work out? faceID is fast but,it is still hard to unlock in car
or on the table due to angle constraints. besides,it doesn't work well with mask on. last but not the least, hw consumes so much screen estate. apple hides it in the UI but, it is so obvious in photo and video viewing.

Of course they don't plan on bringing it.
Why bother bringing back a simple component when they need to justify keeping that Rube Goldberg machine that's literally built to break, as it depends on so many components and will be disabled if any of them malfunctions. And when that happens, it's new phone time!

Would it be nice to have both, sure why not 🤷
Have I felt a finger print scanner is missing since going to Face ID based devices, no not once.

Most of people use finger print sensor, because it is more practical and better than Face ID (or whatever the name) scanner.

Of course they won't because they can't collect much data from fingerprint scanning. 🤭🤭

Pitch black doesn't have any effect, same super fast unlock speed.

There's the speed on video, i don't think it was this fast with earlier models atleast not with my 13 Pro. It was already fast, but now it's instant.
It also works from surprisingly wide angles and long distance, but you can experience that when you get yours

As others have said, FaceID have already advanced to the point Touch ID is pretty much a pointless additional security measure. You can literally scan yourself with/without glasses, and with/without a face mask. No need for Touch ID whatsoever.
