We have been a couple of months with the new iPhone X available and without a doubt one of the added functions that is standing out above the rest is Face ID, this is normal since Apple dispenses with the iconic home button on its iPhone for the first time in its history . Also Apple is forcing the machine to prove that it is the best security system that exists in a smartphone even above Touch ID.
This was seen in the last interview with Phill Shiller, Apple's vice president of worldwide marketing, where in addition to stating this, he also warned that the rest of the systems similar to Face ID were really bad compared to yours. The truth is that the Apple system offers a lot of confidence to users and this can be seen with the arrival of Touch ID, which although they were not the first to implement it (like Face ID), they were the ones that better it they made.
On the web we find a handful of comparison videos of this Face ID with the rest of Android models that also offer facial recognition, and we honestly believe that all have their good and bad things, but in the case of the iPhone X it shows really safe if we want to fool the system with a photo or similar, which cannot be said of the competition in some cases. In MacRumors they leave us this video of comparison with the sensor of the Samsung Galaxy Note 8 and with the new OnePlus 5T, say yourselves:
Of course, most market analysts outside of Apple believe that the technology implemented in the iPhone X is far ahead of the rest, this is a general opinion. But Apple's Face ID also has its flaws, for example when use iPhone horizontally, when is too close to the face or even costs you a bit more when the iPhone X is flat on a table, which forces us to bend a little to unlock.
The speed of unlocking the iPhone X compared to the Oneplus 5T or even the Note 8, is slower due to the process of mapping our face, in addition to these models They are using 2D methods that depend solely on the device's camera. Not to mention that Android devices do not work in low light conditions or directly in the dark, in the case of the iPhone it does it without problems.
In short, the new Face ID may have things to improve, something that we do not deny, but it is true that for us it is the safest and most effective system in facial unlocking According to the videos circulating on the net, even taking into account that a twin brother is capable of unlocking it, something that is 100% sure will also happen with the rest of Android devices and their facial sensor. Rumors suggest that Apple will continue to bet on this sensor in the future of the iPhone and hopefully so.
It is difficult for them to achieve as good facial recognition as Apple's, but they will eventually achieve it.
That's Pedro, the competition will improve for sure but today Apple is ahead with its Face ID.
