i like the touch bar

You are evil.

EDIT: As my dad tells me, the "X" in iPhone X is supposed to mark the 10th anniversary of the iPhone. Cool, I guess.

idk the power of a professional digital camera and the added functionality of everything else definitely makes it appealing for day to day use, and I think the face recognition technology is cool af

the camera is nice but the face id is just a gimmick. yeah it'll work most likely, but can guarantee 90% of people are still going to use passcodes.

The only reason touch ID caught on is because it's fast. Face ID is not nearly as fast, it's not nearly as reliable, people are straight up going to go back to PINs.

Every android phone either has the buttons built into the lower bezel of the screen, or the buttons are the on-screen version. There isn't an android phone that is 100% gestures like the Iphone X is.

the Android buttons also take up screen space.

only a small sliver, and the buttons go away when playing videos, gaming, and other fullscreen tasks

I prefer some sort of button than a gesture

Face ID doesn't work with my beard. Cool.

Yes it does. Where do you pull that from?

so a stare is slower than a finger

in the future, beards are the new disguises for facial identification programs

$1000 - an M1 Garand, or an iPhone?
