iPhone 8 Plus 64GB

Loving It!

I am so completely pleased with this phone. The photos are incredible in vibrant colors and clarity. I am really happy with the larger screen and memory this purchase offers me Lots of new amenities that my prior phone did not offer.

Getting there

This is my second iPhone I have changed from 5s to 8plus so was used to a lot the features. Lot larger than the 5s but is heavier and that takes a while to adjust too. Having a bigger screen is much easier to navigate, but I do wish they included an instruction manual especially when you consider...

First phone appeared to have subsurface cracks, further inspection revealed a screen protector was used to cover significant scratching on an otherwise good phone (no scratches or marks elsewhere, 99% battery, unlocked, and working).

Great camera features

Love this phone. Lots of features, especially with the camera. Could be an issue if you have small hands as it is bigger than I expected it to be and can be awkward to hold sometimes.

iPhone 8 Plus review

The iPhone 8 Plus is a hard phone to recommend. Sure, it's powerful, but so is every other flagship - and with a dated design and huge body, the 8 Plus is lagging behind. Throw in the fact that the wireless charging is slow, the fast wired charging costs you extra, and flagship camera feature Portrait Lighting just doesn't work well enough yet, and the 8 Plus is a tough sell. If you're coming from an iPhone 7 or 7 Plus there's not much to justify the upgrade - though moving from a 6 or 6s is more understandable. And if you're currently an Android user, you'll find phones that are just as fast, with modern designs, for far less money in the Android ecosystem. It's just hard to see the argument for spending £799/$799 on a phone this big in 2017, especially with the smaller-bodied iPhone X now in the line up. This one's for big-handed Apple devotees only.

Got to love an iPhone

I was very reluctant to upgrade my phone as I was worried about transferring all my information & documents to the new phone, but I have to say I was absolutely amazed at how easy it was. It took only a few minutes and other than stored passwords everything transferred without a hitch.

Totally great

Very easy to use all apps

iPhone 8 Plus review

A solid iPhone, but a clear evolution from previous Plus models. Compared to the iPhone X, iPhone XS and iPhone 11 Pro Max it's unexciting, but it offers the traditional home button and a far better experience over the smaller iPhone 8.

iPhone 8 review

Don’t let the iPhone 8 name fool you – this is very much the iPhone 7S, an incremental upgrade on the 4.7-inch iPhone 7 with a few additions here and there, but nothing to really wow you next to other smartphones in 2018.
