Lastest iOS 12 beta installed and yesterday Face ID stopped working (I changed my passcode yesterday too) and I try to setup Face ID and the camera comes on but then it says "Face ID unavailable" "try setting up later".

anyone else have come across this issue?

BUMP. Anyone?

Apple will give you replacement iPhone. go to apple store
 
If a full restore from backup doesn't fix it, it might be a hardware issue. My FaceID has been, and continues to be (including on today's beta), flawless.
 
This happened to me on beta 3, maybe a day or two after installing. I tried the resets and pretty much everything except restoring to 11.4, but nothing worked. However, it suddenly started working again on beta 5! Have you updated?
