Clearly you haven't understood politeness. You take off your hat before you talk to someone, including your iPhone.

Well it was obvious you didn't care enough do do a proper research, you simply implied that the iris scanner can be universally hacked(no matter the phone) based on some memory you had.
Well if that german site's method doesn't work with the latest phones(it most likely doesn't work with the S8 either if iris scan is activated for both eyes) what other method could somebody use to get past the iris scanner?
The iris scanner doesn't have any weaknesses, it's immune to twins or people that look similar, or to young people.
I implied nothing, you applied inference to something that wasn’t even my point.
My point was to bring up that it is iris, not a retina scanner, and that it also had been defeated in previous tests.
If you have gloves on, you may likely have a hat on and this is where it fails. Of course, if you have rubber gloves on for protection reasons (in the lab), FaceID works very well. I’ve had my iPhone XS since launch and definitely don’t see any improvement in speed. Wet fingers definitely was a drawback of TouchID.

I’ve actually switched to this and it makes FaceID much faster. The only negative here is that if it doesn’t work for whatever reason (like a bad angle), you are constantly typing in your password because FaceID gets locked out more easily.
So far I've had three Huawei phones, Honor 8 (backside fps), P10 Plus and P20 Pro (both front facing fps). Both P10 and P20 have far superior finger print scanners to the iPhones I've had/has (5s and 6/6plus) as they work without a problem with damp or dirty fingers, something my iPhones struggled immensely with.
So no, many modern Android phones don't have the same problems as iOS phones.
Again, Huawei Mate 20 Pro have the same type of system with dot projector and IR illuminator as Apple uses, so Android most certainly has a "real" equivalent to Face ID.
What negative spin? I went back and read the comments that existed prior to your comment... and it's just a bunch of people complaining about not having touch id any more... and some people responding saying they don't mind face id. what negative "spin" were you referring to?
I still have my 6s+ 128
From my perspective, every iPhone since has been a downgrade in some way.
I'd love to have a better phone. It hasn't been made yet.
Same here. I decided not to upgrade and keep my iphone 7 plus in order to keep Touch Id. I’ll probably jump ship to Android if Apple refuses to add support for Touch id to future devices .
The same goes with the Touch bar and butterfly keys in the new Macbook Pro . I’m sticking with the 2015 Macbook Pro until those issues ( for me ) are fixed .
I love face is and can’t see myself using it nor needing it. It feels old and one more thing I have to do to get to my apps. Face ID is the beat decision Apple has ever made. Along with their quest for AR, you cant do AR on a button. The home button on my 10.5 ipad seems outdated and am going to upgrade this weekend to the new iPads, I’m going all in on homebuttonless devices.
This is really pretty funny. Your example is of identical twins? That’s a threat? Your identical twin sister or brother is a threat? A far more plausible threat, that has occurred is the passed out college student having his or her finger used to open their phone. FaceID wont work with the victim’s eyes closed. Your identical twin’s face is not a failure of security. The face is identical. Importantly, a stranger is not able to use your picture. Hollywood quality masks, perfect copy’s, didn’t work either. There are no cases of the FaceID being “tricked”. Not the case with the retina scan. You didn’t look to hard. It was tricked 1 month after release, with a picture of someone’s eye and a contact lens - That’s a real security vulnerability flaw. Do you have an identical twin? I didn’t think so.
Sometimes it helps to change fingers. At times skin on some fingers may be worn out
could be due to age or work. Mine worked much better on my ring finger compared to my index finger.
You stole the words from my keyboard!. Millions feel the same, we just accept it because we have been taught to accept whatever Apple pushes. I want my TouchId back! Both tech are complementary, not a replacement.
That was your initial point and I didn't say anything about it.
Your second point was that there are multiple YouTube videos showing that the iris scanner was defeated with simple pictures. And this is what I addressed.

Post #197 where I explain the situation regarding the hack of S8's iris scanner.
Also from apple's page:
So FaceID has some inherent vulnerabilities that are not applicable to Fingerprint scanners of Iris scanners.

I tried Android Pay using face unlock using my OnePlus 6T this morning and as Apple like to claim - 'it just works'.
No doubt about it at all - Face ID as I have minor sweaty palm and fingers. So often Touch ID does not work as intended across many occasions and venues. I wish Face ID would have been made available across all product ranges from day 1 instead of now I am having to still endure Touch ID on some products (e.g. MacBook Pro), not to mention iMac which does not even have Touch ID.
Example: office where aircon is set to higher temperature due to some colleagues complaining it is too cold, as a reason, there are some of us who even sweat while working in office). Other occasions such as after exercise/workout or cooking or bath.

Bravo! Android finally caught up to Apple. Only took two years.I tried Android Pay using face unlock using my OnePlus 6T this morning and as Apple like to claim - 'it just works'.
Lack of product knowledge again? Android Pay has worked with face unlock for some time.Bravo! Android finally caught up to Apple. Only took two years.
