Apple emphasizes again that Touch ID for iPhone X was never an option, company all-in on F...
tulkas said:The more every statement from the company, include John Gruber, uses the same "all-in on face ID" mantra, the more it sounds like they are pushing a scripted narrative. I at least hope the PR machine is trying to convince the outside world instead of inside Apple that they really were all in. Either way, they are actively trying to convince someone that they were "all in". They are all-in on this script. They are all in on the narrative. They are all in on the storyline.
So, you'd rather believe a consensus of babble from a list of babblers over simply looking for yourself at the fact that Face ID is fundamentally better than Touch ID.

Apple overtakes Samsung as global top smartphone manufacturer
I don't care about any of this yap, yap crap, good or bad in the media.
I just love Apple products for what they are. Good products.
Love my late 2014 iMac, my old Mac mini which can still run Mojave for one still-important app, my iPhone XS Max, and my iPad Pro 12.9" with Apple Pencil. Just recently got an Apple Watch Series 6 to replace my 3, and I'm looking forward to the iPhone 12 (or 13) and an M1 iMac.
I also love Catalina and the latest iOS and iPad OS. -
A reflective Jony Ive recalls the joy of joining Apple, the magic of making products that ...
AppleInsider said:"What I will remember most fondly will not be the products," he said, "it will be the process."
A person's only real pay in life is the enjoyment of the effort he/she puts out. The products (or trophies) come and go. They don't matter nearly as much as the team participation and the next "game." No amount of money or possessions will substitute for it.
Those who have experienced this know what I'm talking about, and I won't bother to explain it to anyone else.
This is a big chunk of the "magic" of Apple: Sir Jony's many contributions on an ongoing basis as part of the Apple team.
Apple products on my "want" list: iPhone X, Apple Watch Series 3 with cellular, iMac Pro, and iPad Pro/Apple Pencil. -

Apple opens 'reimagined' new Abu Dhabi retail store

I can't imagine where Apple would be today without its own retail stores, which just keep getting better over the years. What a contrast to Microsoft's feeble efforts in that kind of activity!!
