iPhone X Face ID has also explained the fact that the probability that a person can unlock the phone is 1 in 1 million, 20 times lower than in the case of Touch ID. Furthermore, for Apple Pay it is necessary to double press the side button to confirm the intention to make the payment using the iPhone X and the Face ID system, this being an important change that Apple is imposing from now on.

iPhone X can allow the use of Face ID for identification if we want it and ask Apple to do such an investigation for our phones. The data stored by Face ID remains in our phones in a secure enclave inside the new A11 Bionic chip of the iPhone X, so our face will go absolutely nowhere, so you can rest assured about this.

  1. Well, it seems like a problem to me, or if it's Apple, do we have to remind ourselves and say that it's normal? Isn't it normal that you can no longer unlock the phone (yes, I know, you can type the code) if you haven't used the phone 4 hours...wtf Apple, people still sleep, not all of them are zombies.
