Ratio of the screen is the most high who has ever owned an iPhone. the iPhone 8 launched in unison with the iPhone X only has a ratio of screen-to-body at 65.4%.

The history of the Birth of the Face ID
Face ID is one of the products of face recognition technology, and the predecessor bakalnya had long been developed. Some journals long it’s been a lot of talk about it, among others, Shang-Hung Lin in the journal titled An Introduction to Face Recognition Technology say face recognition technology is one of the variety of the framework of biometric technology. In the aspect of technology, security, biometrics so the method of verification or identification by utilizing the identity of the physiological characteristics such as fingerprints as well as parts of the face.
Verification method and identification with biometric very hard to fake and very stable when compared to other technologies. Unfortunately, refer to what is expressed Lin, biometric security is not too convenient to use by the user is compared using the technique of verification or authentication, such as keywords, signatures, and the like.
The Iphone x wasn’t the first
Face recognition technology began to be worked for serious since the decade of the 1970s. The two products face recognition technology, which is present early is Miros Trueface and Visionics Facelt. Both of the products that appeared in 1999. The use of face recognition technology for smart phone is also not new.
Before Face ID applied on the iPhone X, other smart phones which has been using this technology is the Samsung Galaxy S8. Even Samsung Galaxy Note 7 called smartphone is the first to use this technology. In addition to facial recognition, on the Samsung S8 also applied the technology of the scanner of the iris of the eye. The same technology-the same entry in the framework of the biometric. In 2005, technology readers face has also been applied on PDA.
The difference in Face ID and Touch ID
Face ID is called more reliable than Touch ID. This is bold claims and promises, but there is one interesting difference between Touch ID and Face ID are worth diperhatikanI
In particular, the Face ID will only allow the user to register one face per device. Face ID that supports only one face is very reasonable in terms of face recognition, because unlike Touch ID, the user has only one face to use in the purpose of unlocking their smartphone. Touch ID lets some of the finger to be registered and it seem less safe.
This is the reason security that can be accepted, but as already emphasized, many iPhone users like to share their device with other family members and don’t mind giving you unlimited access to them. Habits it can be done with Touch ID allowing a person to register multiple digits, but with Face ID, it won’t be done again.
