With Samsung’s Galaxy Note 8 arriving in stores soon, here’s an important reminder: Face Unlock isn’t anywhere near as good at securing your phone as a fingerprint. If you follow the tech news cycle, you’ve seen the stories: first following the release of the Galaxy S8 and now the new Note. The technology is easily fooled.
Sure, there’s a little bit of sensationalism and breathless reporting as the videos go viral, but they also serve as an important reminder to find better ways to lock down your phone, as these devices continue to play an even more centralized role in nearly every aspect of our daily lives.
