Remember the good old days when Apple revamped the design of its smartphones every two years, boosting the specifications in between? Recently it has stepped outside that tick-tock development cycle.
The new iPhone 8 Plus is similar to the iPhone 7 plus however the camera is better and also the phone has a crazy long battery life. I didn't plug my phone in for two days and I still had about 30% battery (I am not a heavy cell phone user however).
Sleek; lightweight
Large; bulky with case on
About a month ago, Apple announced their latest flagship smartphone lineup at the company's annual September iPhone launch event. For the first time ever, not just two, but three new iPhones were unveiled, namely the iPhone 8, iPhone 8 Plus and the bezel-less iPhone X.
A11 Bionic is the most powerful chip in any smartphone; Top-of-the-line camera setup; iOS 11 optimization; True Tone display; Wireless charging; Fast charging; Slightly better battery life than its predecessor
Ageing design; Outdated Full HD IPS panel; No headphone jack; No fast charger provided in the box; Expensive
The Apple iPhone 8+ is a larger version of the iPhone 8. With a bigger screen and a superior camera, it's the best iPhone of the current generation, but also the most expensive. Compared with the 7+, the 8+ offers more memory, a faster chip and wireless charging.
The iPhone 8 Plus is ready for the future, which makes it our favorite iPhone so far - but then again, we haven't tested the iPhone X yet. At $799 for 64GB and $949 for 256GB, the 8 Plus is less expensive than its primary competitor, the Samsung Galaxy Note 8.
Super-fast processor; Dual cameras; Wireless charging
Not the fastest LTE connections; Still a relatively low-res screen with a big bezel for the price
As with the iPhone X , improvements can be seen in camera performance and as for the overall performance of the phone in general, apps open up in no time at all and there's no lag. The screen is also excellent offering vibrant colours, good saturation levels and a really clear picture.
Fast and responsive; Large screen; Dual lenses; Interesting portrait modes; Decent battery life; Looks great; Photo quality is good
Lacks a headphone socket; Camera app is really basic; Doesn't shoot in RAW; Portrait modes are a little hit and miss; Low light performance still needs some work (even though improved; Expensive
You think you know what you’re getting, but the iPhone 8 offers quite a bit more. There’s no getting round its highish price and dated design though
Blazingly fast; Camera borders on excellent; Great build that feels solid; Speakers are surprisingly good
Pricey; Design is effectively four years old; Camera bump still irks; No headphone port
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.
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.
Wireless charging is useful; Glass rear is pleasing in the hand; Camera is great at point-and-shoot; ;
Limited upgrade over iPhone 7; Bezel-heavy design looks dated; Battery only just lasts a day
Blazingly fast; Camera borders on excellent; Great build that feels solid; Speakers are surprisingly good;
Pricey; Design is effectively four years old; Camera bump still irks; No headphone port;
