Seriously the amount of fingers cutted since the introduction of iPhone 5s amount certainly to zero or we would have heard the information buzzing around on all cheap news networks almost immediately.

So I'm pretty confident now that this argument is moot by now.

Yet we still don't have enough mileage to determine if face peeling will be a more likely issue with iPhoneX. But I could bet that "face offing" relatively is not more likely than finger cutting...

But it certainly was the reason why Mercedes stopped using thumbprints for cars in Asia. The thiefs just cut off the finger.
