iOS 12 Faceid improvement?

[nrvna76]

I have a pair of Wiley X polarized sunglasses that made faceid fail every time on iOS 11. After updating to iOS 12 public beta my iPhone unlocks every time while wearing those same glasses.

Has anybody else had this experience?

I feel that it fails a lot less now on iOS 12 than it did in iOS 11. It also seems faster and less restrictive than it used to be.

No improvement. First gen Face ID was not ready for prime time and still feels like a prototype.

This year’s iPhone would allow horizontal Face ID because X Plus horizontal orientation. But first gen X users are bigg suckkkas!!!

I definitely think it feels faster with iOS12.

Uh, ok.

I've had my X since launch day, and have had zero problems with FaceID. No 'suckkka' here. I get the awesome OLED display, the ~fullscreen display, the awesome full-system integration of FaceID throughout the system (makes app purchases, website authentication via keychain, etc, very seamless) for all this time without having to live on outdated hardware because of a fear of the new.

Can't wait for a Plus-sized version of this phone come September.

Don't feed the troll.

FaceID has been working fine for me since I got the iPhone X last year, but it does feel a BIT faster with iOS 12.
