At work so I haven't had a chance to watch the keynote but Jesus Christ $1319 CAD.  I really wanted to talk myself into this but I was bracing for the $1200 the newspapers were saying and that was a huge stretch.

Over There posted:Just get a 8+ 64 GB Yeah I skimmed on my coffee break and the 8 has the new CPU and wireless charging anyway so I'll happily upgrade to one of those. $929 CAD for a 64gb 8 feels way more reasonable.

Mahoning posted:I think Apple really hosed themselves by making TouchID 2.0 so good. Like, the #1 reason I want the 8 over the X is that I love TouchID so much. Yeah giving up TouchID is not something I want to do. Just got to the part where Hair Force One tried to demo FaceID and it didn't work. Hilarious.

Face ID Works In The Dark and When Your Face is Obscured by Hats and Beards... but not on stage at a Keynote.

Smashing Link posted:I read somewhere that he had to unlock it first by code because it had just been rebooted. MacRumors dug into the whole thing, seems unlikely because there was no message like with TouchID saying "gotta input your password after a reboot". https://www.macrumors.com/2017/09/13/doubts-speculation-face-id-fail-iphone-x-keynote/

Happy Noodle Boy posted:I’m guessing it’s the generic you need to input your passcode after a number of failed attempts (which is different than the reboot text) that you get with Touch ID. Yeah it sure looks like two failed attempts then the passcode thing. Apparently FaceID requires a passcode after two tries which jives with what happened on stage. Somebody is getting fired today.

False Toaster posted:Curious. Couldn't they just have seamlessly integrated TouchID into the rear Apple logo with the X? That would justify the existence of cases with that goofy Apple logo window cut out and that's a future nobody wants to live in.
