Animoji

The developer preview of iOS 11.3 is now available

Apple today previewed all-new battery and CPU throttling features and other enhancements coming to iPhone, iPad and iPod touch this spring with iOS 11.3. Registered developers and members of the paid Apple Developer Program can now install the iOS 11.3 beta and test-drive the new features.

New series of iPhone X ads feature Animoji and Face ID

Now that iPhone X shipping times have stabilized thanks to the end of the production delays, Apple has rolled out four new ads for the device. Three of them feature Face ID, and the last features my new favorite YouTube genre, Animoji Karaoke.

There has been quite the litany of concerns regarding Face ID, and these latest ads aim to dispel them, as well as highlight the features exclusive to the iPhone X.

It quells worries about whether Face ID will work in the dark and if it will work with different facial changes (like different hair, glasses, makeup, etc). The third video on Face ID shows off all the different ways to use it, such as using Apple Pay and entering passwords.
