I have a suspicion that removing the home button and relying on swipe-interactions might be a step back in usability for the non-tech savvy people who have made up a large share of iPhone users.

#92FaceID shows the difference between Apple and other smartphone manufacturers. Apple doesn't release features until they are absolutely sure they can engineer them to work perfectly.
And it failed in the demo...

#93Someone can drug me and hold the phone in front of my unconscious face to access all my data?
Biometric has the same issues regardless of touch or facial recognition.

#99Probably not a good sign that FaceID failed on stage for Craig on his first try (had to use a passcode to log in) during the demo.

#100>Thanks to this new design, the iPhone X is sealed for water and dust resistance.
So the iPhone 7, which does not use this design, was not water and dust resistant? I know this is a meta point, but it's annoying. Apple can say whatever they like in their releases, but it would be nice to have people familiar with the domain do a smell test on the content.
