It feels like this whole wave of "face unlock" is just a dumb side effect of Apple not being able to get the in-display TouchID to work well enough for the iPhone X. Maybe it's slightly better than a fingerprint unlock. Maybe it's slightly worse. Who cares. It feels like smartphones have moved firmly into the realm of silly marketing features (at the cost of security, apparently) and we've left behind any kind of substantial, interesting advancements. I mean, we now have a radar that let's us skip a song by waving (sometimes, if it works)? The future of smartphones is increasingly dumb.
