I was thinking of upgrading my iPhone 7 Plus if the new phone is really exciting. However, if Touch ID is replaced with this facial recognition only, I won't. I don't want someone to be able to unlock my phone by holding it at my face.

If someone is holding your phone at your face, presumably against your will, then I suggest that having your phone unlocked may be the least of your problems. 

True, but why compound the problem?  I can't personally see (though I've been wrong before) a huge demand for being able to unlock one's phone with one's face, so I suspect, if it turns out to be a thing, that will only be one application of the technology when it's released.  I'll be disabling it for phone unlock, even if I use it for other things, anyway, since LEO has amply demonstrated that they only care about people's rights when they're forced to do so by the courts, and even the courts have sided with them on some violations.
