After so many years, can't say I understood the appeal of facial recognition on a phone. You're already going to be holding it so fingerprint readers still seem superior in every way. You can unlock it before you even take it out of your pocket too.

    Fingerprint readers require touching a specific spot with a specific digit.

    Face recognition only requires the user be looking at the device.

    The bigger argument is fingerprint readers can be more secure.

    I personally would prefer a device that does both simultaneously for secure requests like accessing credentials.
