I just picked up a 13 mini and this is what would push me over the edge to return it. I keep having to take my sunglasses off to make it recognise me.

If a 14 mini came out with Touch ID I’d be all over it, but for now I think I’m going back to the SE.

They can put a fingerprint sensor on the side like the iPad air or other android phones. That would be really nice. May be even call it iPhone air so that it goes with their iPad air and MacBook air. But we know apple wouldn't do that.

FWIW, i never did faceID with glasses, but it does recognize me, and in the last 6 months or so I've noticed that it works even with sunglasses on (and masks sometimes too).
