Your comment makes no sense as Face ID uses infrared and even in pitch black rooms would still not “struggle to recognize his face” or anyone else’s.

Yet tens of millions of satisfied users seem to like it and society hasn’t fallen, and no one has produced any reports of any major issues or breaches with it that make it “so bad.” Oh well then, use a different phone or better yet just move to Android and be done with it as it seems you’ll really never be satisfied anyway.

Steve Jobs is dead. Steve Jobs has been dead for a long time. Deal with it.
FaceID doesn’t care if there is any light whatsoever and doesn’t speed up or slow down depending on light.What a terrible ad. His iPhone X was struggling to recognize his face in the low light.
FaceId is so bad...far less flexible than TouchId.
It's so bad that I don't even want it despite the fact that it was given out as a free company phone.
Face ID is creepy....no thanx. Hoping if there is a iPhone SE2 that it retain headphone jack, home button, and Touch ID.
If you ever needed to change how you access your device before biometrics, you could just change your password. Simple.
But these days you are stuck with a fingerprint or a face, neither of which you can change. Of course all the reasons for which you might have had to change a password in the past, don't apply to biometrics....or not.

TouchId can do the same thing.Just sayin'
A quiz show where you're allowed to use an Internet-connected device? Yeeeeeah...
Someone didn't think the basic premise of this through very well.

No. The only remarkable thing about the 1984 ad was that it was different from other ads at the time. Saying that Apple should be coasting on the victory of a certain genre of ads is ignorant to the fact that times and culture change. People don't want to see a lanky Mac actor making fun of a fat Windows actor to prove that Mac is better than Windows. Times have changed, and you should too.
My £250 64GB Dual Camera Huawei received a software update two days ago. “Oh yeah” I thought. “It does enough as it is. It’ll just be an incremental under-the-hood update again”. Looked under details. “Face Unlock”. Right. That’ll be amusing to see. How wrong I was. Bang on every time. Even upside down. It recognises immediately when the phone is picked up. No more button pressing. Great. And how much did this feature cost to add? Nothing. How much fuss was made of it? Nothing. How much disposable income do I have to justify buying the same features for four times more but with a ten times more shouty ad campaign? Nothing.
Very amusing and impressive production, Apple. I’ll give you that! But that’s all!![]()
Biometrics as a password is not security; it's convenience. They can be cloned / tricked. Once your biometric data is out there you cannot change it.
Apple selling Face ID with its "1 in a million" "security" is less security than a fixed 4-character password. 62^4 is 1 in 14 million possibilities at guessing (62 comes from 26 lower letters, 26 upper letters, and 10 numbers). You're 14 times more secure than FaceID if you use a 4 character password with mixed case letters and numbers.
Biometrics are usernames, not passwords.
Terrible ad. Doesn't show how FaceID is better than touchID.
Apple ads have been so rubbish for years now.
