- FireBeyond 9y agoAnd you could/can unlock TouchID with playdoh casts, even high res fingerprints printed on paper... so?
- theshrike79 9y agoPrinting someone's photo off Facebook is trivial. Lifting a working fingerprint and transferring it to a play-doh mold or a hi-res printer is a whole another beast.
- vilmosi 9y agoI thought it needed to be a high resolution photo?
- theshrike79 9y agoFor Samsung, nope. You can just open someone's profile picture on Facebook on your phone and show it to their phone and It'll unlock (or not, just like with their actual face).

- bhnmmhmd 9y agoI agree partially, but Apple is also expected to introduce some new features, right? Or else, what's left of Steve's legacy?
- sorenjan 9y agoSamsung didn't do face unlock first either, it was part of Android 4.0. Of course, using a single camera without movement you'll only get 2d data, so it shouldn't stand a chance against Apple's 3d sensor.
