This phone has the same pedestrian design
Missing headphone jack and battery life as the iPhone 7 -- and no dual camera either. The iPhone 8 costs a bit more than baseline new iPhones in years past
And comes only in black
Silver and a new shade of gold
Speaker quality isn't amazing
No portrait mode or facial ID
Bezels are big in comparison to other recent phones
Water-resistance falls short of rivals
Portrait Lighting can be hit-or-miss
Can you handle iPhone X envy
Bezels look date
Fast wired charging costs extra
Modest improvements over the iPhone 7 make this year's update feel less significant
Particularly in comparison to the looming iPhone X. The iPhone 8 continues to lag behind its larger sibling for photography. Package still only includes the same 5W power
Extra glass causes durability concerns
Voicecall quality needs work
Fewer color options
Presence of more and more higherend iPhone models makes this one feel like a compromise
Abstract: When you hold the iPhone 8, you won't find much about it that's different from the iPhone 7, even with its all-glass body. It's slightly heavier and bigger, but not significantly. The iOS 11 also looks and acts like the iOS 10 on the iPhone 7. In addition...

Abstract: The iPhone 8 is a successful execution of a familiar idea. From the outside, it appears the very definition of an iterative upgrade, and with the bleeding-edge iPhone X on the horizon and scads of Android phones that have had similar features for years, t...

In a lot respects, the iPhone 8 should feel like a slam dunk: it takes the already winning formula of the iPhone 7, delivers a handful of solid upgrades, and even implements some all-new features. And if we're looking at the phone on its own, it's hard to...

high build quality, True Tone display, fast SoC, great camera, accurate GPS, Bluetooth 5.0, high Wi-Fi performance, many LTE bands, water and dust protection
storage cannot be expanded, only 12 months warranty, no stereo jack, only average speakers, display resolution could be higher, heavier than the predecessor, very limited NFC functionality
Abstract: Today's the day that the new iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus are in stores across the world. The iPhone 8 isn't the exciting new Apple product this fall — that honor is reserved for the forthcoming iPhone X — but it is the new, mainstream iPhone that millions...

While we haven't retested every smartphone using our new protocols, we have retested some of the best, and the Apple iPhone 8 improves over all of them, including the Google Pixel and the HTC U11 — the two best performers until now. Apple has brought some...
