OnePlus 6’s Face Unlock Fooled by Printed Photo

So, the OnePlus 6’s face unlock got fooled. Of course it will, as it uses a standard camera to recognise the user before it, it’s not as foolproof as Apple’s Face Id nor Iris scan from Samsung. But even Face ID was fooled multiple times. So face unlock should be used for convineance, but not as a foolproof measure of security, as compared to fingerprint, password or Pin lock. Below is the tweet posted by a Twitter user named Rik, unlocking his phone with a black and white printout.
