    @jack Yeah, considered as “just” a phone, and by phone we mean thing people use to make phone calls and send text messages, then I can agree that the SE is Apple’s best attempt. (Though if that is the definition of phone, I miss my old pre-smart phone Motorola. Physical numerical keyboard, great battery life and insanely thin. Also, it worked with iSync to sync my calendar and contacts. :) )

    It appears quite a few people miss Touch ID which I find interesting. To me after using Face ID for a couple of days, using Touch ID on my iPad felt like bashing two pieces of rock together to produce fire. It felt so ancient. Touch ID never worked flawlessly for me whereas Face ID works almost every time. The only exceptions are when I’m laying down in bed.

    What is it about Touch ID that you find better/more appealing? (Other people who read this should feel free to chime in as well.)

    Aaron Parecki
    I vastly prefer TouchID and I wish they would bring it back to the newer phones.

    When my phone is lying flat, it often can't see my face, so I have to tilt my phone up in order to unlock it to see a notification. It's a lot easier to tap the TouchID sensor to unlock it to glance at a notification.

    FaceID is slower than TouchID, I'm still surprised every time I use a device with TouchID and see how quickly it responds.

    FaceID fails when you're wearing a mask, which is now a regular part of everyday life, so using my phone outside is extremely frustrating and I end up entering my PIN all the time.

    The only saving grace that FaceID has (or had, prior to masks), was that it works when I'm biking while wearing gloves.

    Painting is suchhhh a hassle. I keep forgetting and saying I’m gonna hire someone and then do it myself and regret it 😂
    Aaron Parecki
    This makes me feel a lot more justified about hiring someone to paint my studio last week. I was tempted to do it myself after watching some of your videos tho!

    There have been a few startups in this space but none have really succeeded. The price point just doesn’t really work for most.

    not everything has to be a startup

    I feel guilty about how much water I've wasted reading parts of this in the shower.
