Apple came out with a refutation of the published article on Bloomberg News on Wednesday, which states that it recently allowed suppliers to reduce the accuracy of the Face ID recognition system of the iPhone X to accelerate the release of the smartphone.
In an email sent to Reuters, Apple said that "Bloomberg's statement that Apple has lowered the accuracy of the face ID for the Face ID is an absolute lie."
Bloomberg referring to sources close to people familiar with the situation, said that Apple has weakened the requirements for some technical characteristics of sensors for the system Face ID, in order to speed up the testing of components.
In its statement, Apple confirmed that it expects the sale of the iPhone X, as planned, on November 3, with the Face ID function. "The quality and accuracy of the face identifier has not changed. The probability of accidentally unlocking your iPhone with a face identifier is still one in a million, "the company said in a statement.
The Face ID system is one of the most talked about functions of the flagship smartphone iPhone X worth $ 999 - with the help of a special algorithm it creates a mathematical model of users' faces, opening access to the smartphone or allowing you to pay for goods with a glance at the mobile device.
