Face ID in iPhone X vs. 'Face Unlock' Facial Recognition in OnePlus 5T

But once you open the phone, you still need to take your gloves off to work with the touch screen, unless you only doing so using Siri....

Nope. I have touch sensitive gloves. Once my 7+ is unlocked I can put my glove back on and use my phone with my gloves.

Nah, the Iris Scanner is secure, but obviously less secure than the iPhone X FaceID because it only uses the iris and can be fooled with special contacts.

And it is pain to use Iris scanner, you have to hold it in certain way to unclog your phone.
Samsung itself says it is not secure on its website.

I didn’t bring that up because not everyone has trouble. Otherwise I would have brought up how it doesn’t work for me at all.

Personally, I am not having trouble with Face ID. I like it and am so happy the home button is GONE. I was over it 2 years ago and hated pushing to do everything. Face ID gets better by you inputting your Passcode, make no mistake it actually is helping your FaceID when you use your Passcode. My personal experience just 15 days in with FaceID is that it feels its getting faster and better. Knowing that its machine learning my facial details, I'm totally ok with entering my passcode. The interface of iOS 11 and the X is just so smooth. Yes I hear some of your complaints but for me its working. Battery life so far seems to have improved for me with 11.2. Love the animojis too.

Yes Santa there’s some really cool cutting edge technology in the X and I’m really liking it.

I kept my 6S to keep next to my bed to work my lights and other stuff that doesn’t require a SIM. Using the Touch ID now feels stupid and archaic.
