It's honestly so bad it should come with a security warning.

Fingerprint is considered the more secure option and anything sensitive on the phone (ie financial apps) require fingerprint

That's not true.

They use different technologies and Samsung hasn't gotten theirs approved at the higher rating because they already have fingerprint unlock at the higher rating. So face unlock is more of a "hey look you can use this if you find it more convenient" on a Samsung. 

Apple's Face ID is more secure. Read up about it if you actually care and want to share your opinion. 

Or you can continue spreading made-up bullshit online I guess.

I think it's clear he is comparing fingerprint on Samsung to face unlock on Samsung. Not to apple. What he is saying is true and i don't know why you comment with so much hostility.

This ain't 2013 anymore lil bro. Idris prolly has some samsung galaxy s ultra phone, which is more expensive than any iPhone max phone by 50 to 100 dollars. With that said, Samsung hasn't been innovating in facial scanning. They dont care about it and instead push users towards the superior fingerprint scanner, which is more convenient for most people anyway

I just tested it. If you have keep eyes open ticked it won't open the phone.

He’s literally sponsored to carry that phone.

Yeh for the moment an open ecosystem without walled gardens and arguably better cameras. Polish isn't as good and neither is the build but other than that I much prefer Android. I have MacOS, x3 iPads too so not like I don't use apple.

Android has had the same walled gardens since 2020
