Apple Products, iOS Updates and iPhone Discussions

Well with the Iphone X if it doesn't unlock with your face properly it locks you would for a whole solid minute. At least with your button if it can't read your fingerprint you can still unlock it using your pass-code.
That's just not true my friend. If it doesn't recognize your face, it goes to the pass code. Simple and easy.

Facial recognition is fine and dandy, but removing finger print sensor entirely was a dumb move.  I've used both technologies plenty on phone and PC as well.  It's far more convenient in most cases to reach for or use the fingerprint sensor than to have to get my face in front of a camera.  On the PC I have to move to be in front of the camera.  On a phone I can be unlocking via finger print before it has left my pocket, or while it lays on a desk/table in front of me and not have to move myself or the phone to perform the unlock.

Fair points. I got quite accustomed to the finger (print). The other has been working slick also though. No biggie yet.

 
Look how far we have come.
Almost like you posting about living a minimalist lifestyle and then 2 weeks later filling up the recently purchased items post with an assortment of trinkets like thousand dollar telescopes for example. Except that would be over a much shorter time span. So yes digging up old posts could be comical I suppose for most of us.You have a strange fascination with these phones. Texting me constantly about it. That would lead me to one conclusion........that you want one for yourself and don't want to admit it!

 
Sure I have a spare hour or 2 to install a near 50 MB update. Come on apple, how come your updates take so long to intall even on the newest and latest devices?
 
A guy here at work just got an Iphone X as well. I asked him how he likes it, yesterday was his first day. He said he missed the button. But today he said he is getting use to it. I still am on the fence. My contract is up and I am due for a new one, but I am still pretty satisfied with my 6s. Plus Verizon isn't having any promotions right now which is strange like @jmanz said this is their slow time of the year, you think there would be specials running.

I thought I would really miss the button too. Took me about a day to get over it. I don't miss it at all now. The battery life is great, as it should be for a new phone, and it is smoking fast. Compared to my former iphone 6 anyways. Old tech I know. It's a great phone though, I can't think of anything negative to say about it. I'm sure the 8 and 8 plus are good as well. I almost went with the 8 plus but after seeing them both in person, I decided on the X.

 
I just wanted to post this here. Last night my Mac got messed up (my fault) boot into recovery mode, reinstalled the OS, when it came back up everything was there like normal and everything was perfect. Easy. I know when I would try this with Windows it was a 50/50 change that it would work this way, with most of the time failing (haven't tried it with Windows 10 yet).
