iPhone X Review: Testing (and Tricking) FaceID

Like, looking at myself in a mirror, okay, this is definitely the creepiest thing. I've ever done a mirror that doesn't talk back, you ready, evil twin. Yes, this is my real face, or is it okay? No! This is a mission impossible, but this is the new iPhone 10 and its new facial recognition is on par with some recent science fiction. But how well does it work and can you fool it to find out I, run it through a series of every day and not so everyday tests, including photos, masks, twins and even triplets test one everyday use after you register your face. You just have to glance in the direction of your phone to unlock it. You know it's unlocked.

When you see the small padlock open on the lock screen, then you swipe up, and you're in it takes less than a second in most instances, but you do have to look at it or glance down. This doesn't work face ID still recognize me when I put on glasses, including sunglasses and a hat, but not an awesome, mustache now, working, probably because it didn't watch me grow it over time. In my tests it also worked with different skin colors and tones. It also works in the dark. Okay, someone turns the lights back on test two photos can trick more primitive facial recognition systems like the Galaxy S8, but on the iPhone 10 cutouts on my face.

Didn't work, no matter how natural I tried to make them look nope. This didn't work either test three masks, but a mask. A real, theatrical mask has depth and detail that a flat image just doesn't an Apple sophisticated system, uses two cameras and projected infrared dots to measure the depth of your face. So naturally, I had a silicone mask made of my face, like one does: I headed to complete sculptor, a New York City store that helps artists, learn to make prosthetics and masks mark and Sara applied a lot of goop to my face to make a silicon mold and after 20 minutes they had what they needed. Then, three days later, I returned with my very brave colleague, Denise I applied some makeup to my mask and Mark fit the mask to Denise's.

Face I, don't know what I'm looking at I think. It's kind of like me: it definitely has the same shape and contours. As my face hold that up face. I'd was more explicit. It did not think it looked like me, I'm gonna truth, though locked hmm yep unlock for me test for twins and triplets, but even a piece of rubber artistry as fine as this has nothing on actual DNA or DNA times three brothers and triplets according to Apple the chances that a random person could look at your iPhone 10 and unlock it with their face is one in a million.

So while your roommate can't break in the chances are a lot greater that your womb mate can narrow, March, 26, Pam, March 26, and these three adorable guys proved that first I asked Declan to register his face with the iPhone okay, and then I asked Cormac and Kevin to come back. Try with you now, yes, the kids were able to get into the phone for turtle, twins or siblings. That really look like aren't as likely Pam and her twin marrow weren't able to unlock the other's phone nothing. So what have we learned here face ID is secure, reliable and easy to use. But if you try to clone yourself, you're asking for trouble, see you in your nightmares.

Oh yeah, yeah.
