  • Touch ID that spans the entire iPhone display in the works at Apple

    I thought I would prefer Touch ID, but once adjusting, the only place I really miss it is with Apple Pay...there are some times it’s just awkward to use Face ID with your phone on the payment terminal... in practically every other situation, Face ID has seemed to be quicker and easier. I guess when I’m trying to discretely peek at my phone it could be useful as well, but even then, I can usually get my face enough in view for Face ID to work.
    Same experience here. Face ID is incredibly consistent and accurate. My only complaint is that I no longer have a button to orient my phone. With my old 6s, I could feel the button to orient the phone. Now I find myself looking at it upside down half time. I wish FaceID would work in any angle - then Apple could essentially have a phone that worked in any orientation.
    This is my experience also, it seems like it would be a step back but I do miss the tactile feel of the home button, even though it was still simulated. While this is great tech, we have to wonder if it's a practical step for Apple to make here.

  • The Galaxy Fold is Samsung's $1980 7.3-inch folding smartphone

    I applaud their effort here, I have also done contract work with the OLED industry and know first hand that all the major companies (including Apple and Samsung) are very interested in foldable technology. My personal issue with this particular product is the price, I don't see how it can take off like this and Samsung typically caters to those looking for more affordable devices.
