Great for Weather Spotter!

I decided to try an Apple I-Phone after having a Galaxy S8 and I am so far impressed with the phone. I notice that the phone is very stable. No lagging and the UI is fast. I had to acquaint myself with the Apple layout, but I find it to be simplistic. The 5.5" display is good for me.
Pros:
  • LONG Battery Life on Standby
  • Nice colors displayed
  • UI is Snappy
  • Earbuds are excellent
  • Dedicated Ring/Silence switch
  • No Bloatware
  • 11.4.1 Update
Cons:
  • Keyboard needs more symbols
  • Glass Backing
  • No SD Card slot
  • Only one resolution option on Camera
  • No Ringer Silent Icon
  • Extra Step in deleting Messages

Used as demo Apple iPhone 8 64GB Gold (6 month warranty + 100% Genuine) review

Went away from apple to samsung... but now I’m back. Great phone but debating if I should’ve got the 8plus for size although still hard to justify price ... after having the smasung 8plus... it was quite the size difference. Still happy with Apples easy useability.

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.
Pros:
  • Wireless charging is useful
  • Glass rear is pleasing in the hand
  • Camera is great at point-and-shoot
Cons:
  • Limited upgrade over iPhone 7
  • Bezel-heavy design looks dated
  • Battery only just lasts a day

Way before its September announcement and October release date, the iPhone 8 has been the talk of the tech industry pretty much the day after the iPhone 7 and 7 Plus was launched. Such is the state of the smartphone industry that there's barely a moments rest to enjoy the newly released units before...

Apple iPhone 8 Plus Review

It's that time of the year again – Apple's firmly established yearly release cycle means today we assess the iPhone 8 Plus. The current flagship, though due to be usurped by the iPhone X very soon, the 8 Plus boasts a new A11 Bionic chip, a dual-camera set up plus a new glass back.
Pros:
  • Great camera(s)
  • Very fast
  • Good display
Cons:
  • Uninspired design looks very dated now
  • Software is very samey
  • Price of 256GB model is right in iPhone X territory

In an odd change of tune for Apple, the new iPhone 8 can't really be said to be this year's "best iPhone ever". Sure, it's got a better processor, quality-of-life improvements like wireless charging and an ever-so-slightly refined design.
Pros:
  • A11 Bionic Processor
  • Premium feel
Cons:
  • Camera feels mediocore by Apple's standards
  • Expensive

iPhone 8: Full, in-depth review

While it won’t inspire mania among the enthusiast crowd like the iPhone X will, the iPhone 8 remains a solid package for those happy to play things safe. In an odd change of tune for Apple, the new iPhone 8 can’t really be said to be this year’s “best iPhone ever”. Sure, it’s got a better processor, quality-of-life improvements like wireless charging and an ever-so-slightly refined design. Unfortunately, with the futuristic, face-reading iPhone X just around the corner, the iPhone 8 feels a little overshadowed.
Pros:
  • A11 Bionic Processor
  • Premium feel
Cons:
  • Camera feels mediocore by Apple's standards
  • Expensive

Apple iPhone 8 Review

The iPhone 8 anchors Apple's 2017 phone line, but it isn't where the future is. Apple doesn't slide backward, but sometimes it moves forward slowly. The new iPhone 8 ($699 for 64GB; $849 for 256GB) rests a little bit on Apple's laurels. While it's an excellent phone, it doesn't bring any radical new consumer features for owners of the iPhone 7 or even 6s models. Its powerful new A11 processor sets the stage for Apple's augmented reality future, but if you're interested in that, the iPhone 8 Plus and iPhone X are better bets. Before we begin, I'd like to note the score above: 3.5 stars, the lowest we've rated an iPhone in a while. The iPhone 8 has some class-leading features, most notably that A11 processor and a camera that matches other $700 flagships. But on price-performance balance, it's the least appealing member of the iPhone family right now, and for that, we docked it half a star. A Familiar Design The iPhone 8 looks a lot like the iPhone 7, except that the metal back has been switched out for shimmering glass. At 5.45 by 2.65 by 0.29 inches (HWD) a...
Pros:
  • Wireless charging
  • Powerful new processor
Cons:
  • Lacks the latest modem features and bands
  • Single camera is a disadvantage for AR
  • Not a huge upgrade over last year's model, which is still available

iPhone 8 Review: Smart Phone, Dumb Upgrade

You'll need to make your own mind up about this one, since it's a refined smartphone but a lacklustre upgrade. Had Apple included a fast charger and maybe some form of wireless charging pad, it would have matched the 8/10 awarded to last year's iPhone 7 Plus.

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.
