I'd get the R, if I had to. It seems to me that there is a large enough demand for Home Button to offer a choice of models, at least of some models.

The first one is the touch ID is simply more convenient for me as a blind person then Face ID. I don’t have to be looking at the phone. I can have it on my desk even under my desk on my keyboard shelf, and activate it with touch ID. I could have it in my pocket and activate it with touch ID. Also, if you happen to be one of those blind people who can’t use the attention feature of the Face ID, Face ID is massively not secure. If somebody takes your iPhone, all they have to do is put it in front of your face, and it opens, and they have access to everything. And that can be a problem in certain settings. If you’re lucky enough to be able to use the attention setting, which all ighted people do, that’s not a big deal. But in certain settings, it’s everything from a nuisance to a serious risk. And finally, there is the matter of the gestures. Yes, I’m sure they are doable. Blind people are doing them. But it’s just so unnecessary. It’s just a shame that they couldn’t keep a phone around with the home button and touch ID. But everybody has to have giant displays so they can watch movies on their phones I guess. It certainly is the wave of the future for Apple. So if you’re going to stick with Apple products, guess you have to get on the bandwagon. I certainly would not buy either of the S models. If I get an ex this year, it’s going to be the R. I just don’t see enough bang for the buck to splurge on those other things. If I traveled a lot, the dual sim feature is interesting. And the stereo recording would be good for some people. But it’s not worth at least $250 more over the cost of the entry-level r model.
