Uggh just because it's apple most people will act like they can't do no wrong. My big thing is it's not that face id is useless it's not as good as using touch id. In terms of speed. Yes I could enter my pin but it's still faster for me to use touch Id. I don't have a problem with a company getting rid of something because there is a real big gain but I don't see the point when there is such a small gain. I don't even like the X enough to say that if someone gave me one I would keep it. Now the 8 plus mmm I might have to grab one next year. I guess I am not to bothered because I don't feel trapped in the apple Eco system.
