Still disappointing that it isn't using a proper IR illuminator. Apple's Face ID is still better, and the DyNaMiC iSlAnD doesn't take up that much space. I've adjusted to having a fingerprint sensor on my Pixel 6 Pro, but the thing is so much slower.
Keep in mind you don't have to have a slow fingerprint sensor, Google just managed to fuck that up
I've never understood these comments mine opens just as fast as my Samsung
Yeah, I've heard this one is particularly bad. It's broadly fine but it is definitely slower than the one in my old OnePlus 7 Pro.
I paid $250 for the phone refurbished so I have a hard time complaining too much.
Face unlock on the Pixel 8 doesn’t compromise on security.
Try saying that after a cop unlocks your phone by holding it up to your face (legal btw)
There is a lockdown mode or something in the power menu that should disable biometrics until the next unlock with pin/passcode
Not defending the companies, just something to be aware of if you see a cop coming towards you in the distance
If it doesn't have ir illuminators how it can't be fooled by a video playing back on a tablet? AI isn't magic, there's no way it can distinguish a properly made video playing on another screen. Even an human can't distinguish that in that super short time
Example: make a video recording from the front camera of someone doomscrolling. Then play this on another screen, perfectly parallel, and at a distance where bezels can't be seen.
