The fingerprint reader is worse, though. So much in fact that you kinda have to develop a feeling for the exact amount of pressure and "finger rolling" to make it work. After a few days you kinda figure it out, but naturally, every once in a while it just stops working right in that awkward moment when you are not in a position to type in your password.
Overall, not unhappy with the upgrade though. I'd get it again.
Wait, worse than the 6? Because this one is pretty not great.
The back facing ones were the shit. Super fast and perfectly located.
Yes, absolutely worse than the 6. At least it was possible to get the one in the 6 to do what you want, whereas the fingerprint reader in the 8 requires the user to adjust their behavior - and that's with already enrolling multiple fingerprints per finger etc.
It's workable, but it requires adjustment and it does fail every once in a while in an annoying way. The 8 does have face unlock though.
That pretty much sounds like what I have to do with my 6.
Maybe I got an exceptionally bad one.
