note 9 will most probably have the on-screen fingerprint scanner

then that will be great , have finger print in front , can use face reg, the note8 fingerprint position is odd but for sometime u will get used it , but if in front of screen will be nicer

Try not to use too much of iris scanner as it uses a kind of light which is harmful to your eyes in long run.

I realized my eyes teared a lot after using it for a few days

im using face , feel it's better and fun to play , rise ur phone up , then it's unlocked , i like it more than finger print

face unlock is insecure. can be easily fooled with photo.
worthless and false sense of security.
better disable it and use pattern lock.

so far i think it's stil work ok for me , who else will know my face if i drop my phone in middle of street biggrin.gif

QUOTE(sniper on the roof @ Feb 26 2018, 03:23 PM)
Hes saying both insecure so why not just use the more convenient one
*
i don't think the Pattern is Convenient , the pattern u need to slide , while i can unlock my phone with 1 hand with face reg smile.gif Raise up ur phone , press unlock button with left hand , ur right hand is on the screen and ready to open the apps


i only use pattern to unlock when i wake up from bed , and the light is stil dark , or when my phone is on flat of table smile.gif Else face reg work the best for me

QUOTE(un_id @ Feb 26 2018, 03:35 PM)
Then someone who stole your phone must have your picture.. i.e its your relative or friend, or a professional..

Guys, android is not that secure after all.. there are plenty u can do by just booting into recovery mode, don't even need to bother about all those security.. for me the security unlock is merely to prevent someone easily unlock my phone to use without permission (i.e my wife.. shhh.. ) tongue.gif
*
yeah u get the point , i don't let my kid to unlock my phone , and my 4 year old kid won't know using picture to unlock my phone biggrin.gif , my wife can't unlock my phone too , she not even bother too actually because she is apple fan

pattern unlock is more secure than face unlock.

Considering that I have managed to unlocked my friend's phone that using pattern lock as security in the past just by seeing him doing it for one or 2 times from afar....I wouldn't dare to think that pattern unlock is more secure even for one second.

At least for the face unlock, you would need to invest and do some preparation to pull that off.

Sure that both of these security is not secure but it was laughable for you to suggest a pattern unlock as an alternative.

totally agree with kding2 , how easy can u take ur friend Portrait photo in your hand? Their facebook profile pic? Their IC pic? Their facebook group pic?

Not that easy dude to unlock a phone using a picture , u try find 1 of my portrait picture in internet and unlock my phone see tongue.gif

I try to turn my phone facing the facebook group picture in front of my monitor screen just now , can't unlock pun sweat.gif

I even take out my IC to unlock my phone , can't pun sweat.gif

So what else , taking a real portrait photo , print in A4 paper only able to unlock?

Ok, great. It could be possible. After all don't believe everything you read on the internet.

Anyway, one just have to take good care of their phone. By that I don't mean you have to splurge on glass sp, or whatever. It's just a simple task, taking good care of it. Would you rush to pick it up because it rang and caller is gonna hang up soon? No,  I don't. I can always call back later. Unless you're doctor perhaps. You can also dedicate a pocket for your phone which would then help you develop a habit of picking up your phone without worries. It also train your mind to be aware your phone is there and unconsciously avoid all those obstacles that may come into contact with it while it's in your pocket.

These sounds easy but how many are actually practising it. I saw many holding phone and powerbank sandwiched together in their hand. Not sure why. I would just hold the powerbank and leave the phone in my pocket. Why do I care about dropping a powerbank.

I have seen bad owners very often and I don't have to look for it. My mom is a very good example. Phones that we passed to her never survived except the RN3 (barely survived) which I quickly sold when I gave her my S6e.

sometime it might not ur fault , define what is mean by ACCIDENTLY

when u holding the phone , someone langgar belakang u and u drop the phone , screen crack , so that when thing happen



Or when u kid having ur phone , then he might accidently drop the phone and screen crack

when u put ur phone on table , someone hit the table and ur phone drop , screen crack


why do we need insurance? Because we need to make sure our life and our family is protected in future , no matter how u take care the good , thing will happen one day sir smile.gif

in my opinion , a case and a TG is a must for a phone , because the screen itself is super duper expensive , i seriously can't afford to keep change the screen by paying Rm1k sad.gif

If really one day i'm so unlucky both TG and Screen crack at the same time , then i have nothing to say , because at least i already try to protect my phone but it stil accidently drop cry.gif

Spot on !  Got the rhinoshield and I feel less caution now

That true bro !! Why we need to caution for our phone to drop , there is plenty of good case that can protect ur phone and u don't need to scare this and that , isn't it more enjoy to use ur phone with Peace of Mind , Rather than keep scare this and that? If so scare drop and can't afford to pay the repair cost , then keep ur phone in the box and confirm won't be happen anything until u trade off the phone biggrin.gif



So my conclusion , if u really scare this and that , get a good case + TG

if u can afford to pay Rm1k for screen , pay this and that without any complain , just go ahead with naked , there is no right or wrong , there is always an option only

Agreed have a few friends used to have the same idea like him, then next screen cracked. He paid rm700 to replace his s8 2 weeks old phone accident

S8 screen cracked replace rm700 because got discount

Samsung J7 pro screen cracked 1 day old. sp didn't crack but screen crack hit the glass edge.

Accidents do happen

Feel sorry to your friend , if already protect and stil crack , then u have nothing to say , at least u try your best already


Normally when someone use naked , and crack , people will blame him for not using any case or TG

when someone using a case and TG complain bulky , then people will say why not using naked

haha , that is what human being , that the reason why there is always an option and plenty of different case , from Thin fit , to 360 full protection


just go which feel comfortable for you , dont because of people and be the people , just be yourself biggrin.gif

there no TG that covers 2.5 edge for samsung mid end from the photo it didnt cover all the edge.

First thing i apply is sp and case when i bought the phone.

Naked too risky.

Nice assumption you have there about my friend using easy pattern unlock but you were wrong.

Memorize a long pattern lock is more easier than remembering a long-ass numbers.

In today world, pretty much everyone and their mothers unlock their phone in the public, not once but plenty of the time in the one session of meeting/teatime/dining.

that true , once u see ur friend hand pattern unlock for few time , u also can memories the pattern already , we talk about 1 yum char season enough , at least ur friend unlock the phone more than 10 time biggrin.gif

An article taken from BGR...  doh.gif

You said if it is security is concern, then iris scanner is a clear winner here.

As for the so-called "impervious" face id...













and lastly,

Face ID will learn ur face and save it to the phone

let say the Iphone is ur girlfriend one , she unlock the phone everyday with face ID , once u take her phone up , it will be fail and request for password , IF u enter the correct pass code , then FACE ID will save ur face into the memory , and now u can Unlock the Iphone with ur face , and your girlfriend face

that the downside of Face ID that apple facing now , not sure they will be FIX on next ios update , at least this won't happen to samsung phone !!! So i think Face ID stil dont perfectly developed and in my opinion Samsung Face REG is better than Face ID in some way because it won't simply save other phone Face into my memory biggrin.gif

I have seen those videos before. So at least we know that those average photo can't fool Note 8 Face Recognition.

You know what is actually funny? I had been hearing a lot of Note 8 can be defeated by a photo but until now I still can't find a video of showing that. Maybe I am not looking it hard enough. So if anyone have the video about that, please share it with me.

i stil finding hard too , the more video i see , the more confident i use Face Reg to unlock my phone , very convenience and super fast !!
