Watch: iPhone X Facial ID fooled within week of launch by 10-year old boy

Cybersecurity researchers have found an ingenious way to fool Apple’s Face ID just a week after the launch of the iPhone X.

More embarrassing still for the tech giant, a 10-year old boy has found a way round the security check.

Replacing Touch ID, Face ID makes authentication more convenient for users who only have to look at their phone.

The new feature uses infrared light to map users’ faces and unlock the phone when the owner’s face hoves into view.

Watch our video below for more details.
