no lol.my phone is mostly not silent but i just like the switch to stay put haha.
Salah 1 of my favourite football players. btw Salah in Indonesian means wrong. so it was funny when he first became a star.
I haven't upgraded to iPhone yet, and have been an android nut for years. Note 10+ being my current pocket warmer.
One thing about the Note 10+ is that you Must Absolutely have your thumbprint PERFECTLY placed, or it just won't unlock. A side note, however, is that my banking app, that optionally uses my thumbprint to log in, is not near as picky and unlocks faster, with less data points! LOL!
Its Face unlock is finicky in certain lighting ... and doesn't work with Masks for some obscure reason... my S8+ used to just look adoringly into my peepers and that was good enough
That switch should be handy when we need to silent our phones during meetings or certain situations, and actually being praised by many Android users haha.
yes true.but for me personally i dont want it to move.the OCD is tingling xD and i use assistive touch to manage notifications.
Once you go Face ID there is no going back? works in total darkness, supports most apps. 100% success rate, can never go back to Touch ID.I haven't upgraded to iPhone yet, and have been an android nut for years. Note 10+ being my current pocket warmer.

Apples on top of your privacy. Issues security and functional updates quickly. It’s just a great product because they make the hardware and software everything works better
I don’t have that experience with FaceID I have to be honest. It fails from time to time and total darkness for me sometimes confuses it. After using TouchID on the iPad Air, I’d like to see this as an option alongside FaceID on future iPhones.Once you go Face ID there is no going backworks in total darkness, supports most apps. 100% success rate, can never go back to Touch ID.

It would be nice to have both. I don’t have a problem with Face ID unless I’m wearing a mask but it’s always better to have more choices.
Same experience. FaceID failure rate for me is higher than TouchID. Neither is perfect and reaches 100 % success rate but for some reason TouchID is more stable for me compared to FaceID. Ideally a device should have both, this way if one fails, we could resort to the other.
This is me as well. Works perfectly during the daytime but at night, it doesn't work well in the darkness. This is why I absolutely adore the under display fingerprint scanner because it works for me all the time with no issues. I really hope that Apple can will add it in the near future with both options.
No issues with face id in total darkness. I have a 7th gen ipad and touch id fails at least 75% of the time, where I have to enter the passcode (even after I reentered the prints, honestly though it doesn't bother me). It wasn't like that on my 5s and 6s. I guess YMMV.
Touch ID and Face ID have always worked well for me outside of masks. The only time Touch ID hasn’t worked for me is when I had an injury to my thumb. However my thumb was very swollen and the skin was damaged so it’s not surprising that it didn’t work.
Yeah, Touch ID doesn’t always work for me either. Just the other day for some reason I could not get it to unlock with my fingerprint on my iPad. But it worked perfectly fine the next day. Seems to me though Face ID doesn’t always work for a lot of people though. There was a reddit discussion about this and it seems half the people it works all the time, and the other half it doesn’t always work.
I think it’ll be good to have both forms on future iPhones as it’s abundantly clear that both forms of technology are not completely consistent from person to person. Proof of this is the experiences shared in these threads. FaceID is great most of the time and it’s the same with TouchID for me. Others have different experiences and it must be down to skin and eye types being so different from each person. I’ve just seen someone say they’ve got a 75% failure rate with TouchID and that would annoy me personally but then mine is about 95% accurate so it just sways the other way. Come on Apple, offer both!!
Touch ID works great for me as well. Obviously things like skin scratches, or smudged sensor, can throw it off, but that's obvious. Capacitive sensors are great imo. The same applies on Android, where capacitive sensors in general works better than the trendy optical ones.
In iPhone case, it would be great to have both FaceID and TouchID though. If they conflict with each other (eg. Apple for some reason cannot have a less secure biometric at the same time as a more secure one, maybe), then at least give the option to users which one they want to use. But I guess Apple is not the kind that like to give users options.
I just love the under display fingerprint scanner on the S21U lol. I think out of all three, the scanner works for me all the time. Face ID is faster (although the S21U takes you straight to the home screen after it unlocks so it “feels” like it’s faster when unlocking) but the fact that I can use the fingerprint scanner with a mask and in total darkness makes it worth it for me. I just want that option on iPhone so I can use either or.Touch ID works great for me as well. Obviously things like skin scratches, or smudged sensor, can throw it off, but that's obvious.

All rumours pointing to adding Touch ID this year so be nice to have that choice. Being at a desk I do realise how much it is to have

Yeah brilliant mind, but his way of conveying things is not my cup of tea.
