My "is it new?" test works this way: how would I explain what's new to my father (who is 74 years old and knows not much about tech). A7, M7, iOS 7, better camera and flash: not much to say. Touch ID OK that's new, but that's not much.
- davidcollantes 13y agoI am sure you can find a way to explain, it is not that hard. Touch ID is a lot! No more password entering on iTunes. A godsend for someone who has a 26 characters passphrase like me.
- makmanalp 13y agoIf you have a 26 character passphrase, then how are you having an easy time trusting the fingerprint auth?
- davidcollantes 13y agoIt is my fingerprint. Why shouldn't I trust it?
- makmanalp 13y agoIt's not about your fingerprint though. It's just that cheap scanners are easy to trick and you leave fingerprints everywhere, including on the very surface you scan it on.
- ricardobeat 13y agoScanners like the one used only work with live fingers, and read geometry deeper than the surface. You're not going to trigger it with an ordinary collected fingerprint.
- uptown 13y agoIf you're cautious enough to use a 26 character passphrase, why are you comfortable revealing how many characters your passphrase contains?
- acchow 13y ago"The photos look way better" is pretty easy to describe.
- orbitur 13y agoAnd if they reply that they don't think iPhone 5 photos look bad?
