I don't live in a beautiful place like sunny Australia, but I do live with sensitive eyes and wear sunglasses often. Probably 300 days a year (tongue-in-cheek from quote in video). Also have the annoying habit of sneezing when it's too bright, so I'll wear sunglasses into and out of buildings.
I was going to go for the iPhone X, but hearing that sunglasses often impede the unlocking process, I suppose I'll have to stick with the fingerprint scanner. Bummer, was very excited for this.

- eeeeeeeeeeeee 9y agoFor what it's worth, my experience has been nothing like what this guy described. I live in Colorado, which is a fairly sunny place, and I've had no issues. I've used Face ID with polarized (Oakley) sunglasses, with a beanie on, with a baseball hat on, and it works flawlessly both inside and out (even on the mountains in an open field on a 100% sunny day). I had far more failures with Touch ID, mainly due to slightly sweaty fingers. Or failures after washing hands. Failures if you have greasy hands. Not to mention if you live in a cold area where you use gloves in the winter, Face ID is dramatically better than Touch ID now.
