    but have you seen the Samsung OLED displays and the amazing color on them lately? Wow, what vivid colors

    There are  least 92 people in the US who've seen just how vivid and amazing the color of flames their Samsung can display.
    Laughed so hard I almost woke up the baby.

  • Face, the future: the new touch-less ID of iPhone X

    My biggest query is when the phone is sitting on the desk, right now I just press with my finger and get a quick sense if any messages have arrived.  With face ID I will either have to lean over or lift the phone, not optional.  And, realize this is the true definition of a 1st world issue.
    Agreed.   While this is 'first gen' Face ID, I often unlock my phone the same as you.   The phone isn't always orthogonal to my face when I want to unlock and quickly check something.  Sometimes at my desk, sometimes at hip level when I take it out of my pocket (or discretely surf during boring meetings).    Hopefully the next gen will allow more flexibility.   
    Same arguments made about removing the headphone jack, or ports, or software features. One can always come up with arguments to poo-poo anything new. OMG, you might have to alter your routine! This must not happen!
    But....what about women with burqas? Discriminatory!
