I think the bug for face unlock is still there? Like for pixel 4 once you try Android 11 beta, then if you roll back to more recent Android 10 patches face unlock wouldn't work? Or did they fix that already?

So far no issue with face unlock...

Guess using light-colored surgical mask and not those thick fabric ones. Needs to fit the face swee swee, machiam part of the face, then will be able to unlock. So it's a hit or miss kinda thing.

I tried the face once with a mask.

Cannot unlock without a mask.

Deleted the face data and decided to use face unlock without mask.

I’ve both Pixel 4 XL and iPhone 11 Pro and I find myself liking the iPhone’s camera more for Night Mode, which Pixel phones used to dominate in.

Read today that with iOS14, iPhones will also start taking better photos of moving subjects, which is another thing Pixel traditionally dominates in.

If this is true and if iPhones can also take moving subjects on par with Pixel phones, I’m not sure what else is there for Pixel already..The videos not even comparable and there’s also no more free unlimited upload at original quality to Google Photos...

I had to redo the whole setup again. It seems they changed the setup to getting users read out certain phrases instead of the older setup process.

Ya loh. I also discovered if GA hears different voices (especially watching YT when someone say "ok/hey googel", it might trigger to re-learn our voices (maybe security-wise) to make sure it is you.
