Samsung Galaxy S8's facial recognition security feature has already been tricked

A video appearing to show somebody trick the new Samsung Galaxy S8's facial recognition technology has emerged. The handset, which was launched earlier this week, allows users to unlock the phone with their face. It's a fast and convenient alternative to PINs, passcodes and patterns, but might not be the most secure of options. The clip, posted on Twitter by Marcianotech, appears to show a user unlock a Galaxy S8 with a picture of his own face. He doesn't manage it right away, taking several minutes to get the picture into position, but you can see his successful attempt just after the nine-minute mark.
