    I went Galaxy S22 Ultra (ultrasonic) to Pixel 8 Pro (optical) to Pixel 9 XL (ultrasonic).

    My impression was the performance improved over time with the Galaxy and Pixel 8. I find the Pixel 9 worst overall, but figure they’ll improve it in software.

    No data to back that up.

    It mostly struggles when my hand is wet. I miss the Pixel 4’s face unlock.

      Pixel 9 pro struggles with my finger scan if it’s too dry. I guess washing hands removes the body naturally produced oil and that makes it harder to scan.
