Touch ID or Face ID? tbh I love touch ID its fast and easy, I don't mind face ID but I would like it as an extra option not to take away touch ID completely...are you ready for a completely different way to unlock your iPhone?
 
Which do you prefer, a biometric authentication feature thats been around for 4 years, or an unreleased one about which we don't have a lot of information?

Oh good grief!

We only know one part of the equation: Touch ID works fast and smoothly.
We have zero idea about the performance of Face Recognition…

Shall we all just wait and debate this when we've actually had some tests with both?

Thanks. ;)

I expect to prefer TouchID, but how can anyone say anything but "not sure yet" given that no one has tried (Apple's) FaceID yet?

So since its announced, now lets vote on which one do you prefer? for me Touch ID was perfect, no need for apple to completely remove it.
