Everyone in the replies is talking about Apple and the Apple Watch. I personally have a Pixel 5A which has a dedicated fingerprint reader on the back. I unlock it before it even leaves my pocket, scan on the turnstile, and I'm through. No fucking around with face unlock. It's great. And I've tried the newer Pixel screen-embedded fingerprint unlock and it seems worse.
- kibwen 3y agoSeconded. The fingerprint reader on the back was the ideal design, and the screen-embedded reader is objectively worse in ergonomics and reliability. And having the phone unlocked before it's even out of your pocket is so much less frictionless than clunky, gimmicky FaceID.
