Google's Pixel 8 Gets Face Unlock Rivaling Apple's Face ID for Payments and Banking

Google's new Pixel 8 phones have Face Unlock that is secure enough for payments and banking apps.

This uses advanced machine learning, seemingly without new hardware beyond the selfie camera.

It works similarly to Apple's Face ID, scanning a 3D image of the user's face.

This is a big upgrade over the basic Face Unlock on Pixel 7.

It's faster, more convenient and more secure than fingerprint unlock.
