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: The announcement of the iPhone 8 and 8 Plus was overshadowed at last week's event in Cupertino, as the world's media was far more interested in the radically redesigned iPhone X. But in any other year, these two new phones would be a worthy upgrade for th...

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
The sensible, speedy iPhone 8 makes a nice upgrade to the iPhone 6S and earlier siblings, but we won't know until November how it compares to the much pricier iPhone X...
Abstract: So here's the thing, you won't notice much difference at a glance when you first pickup the iPhone 8 or 8 Plus. Front on, they look the same as the iPhone 7, and 6s, and 6 for that matter. To understand the value of the iPhone 8 you've got to look much de...
They might not come with Animojis but there's a lot to love about Apple's more affordable new iPhones.There's no edge-to-edge screen or Face ID, either, but opposable thumbs are one of the things that set humans apart from the animals, so it's worth keepi...
Abstract: Apple is expected to unveil three new iPhones this year. The iPhone 8, the iPhone 7s, and the iPhone 7s Plus. The iPhone 8 is set to tout a radical new design with an edge-to-edge screen, while the iPhone 7s and iPhone 7s Plus should look similar to the...
Camera feels mediocore by Apple's standards, Expensive
At the end of the day, it feels like the biggest competition that the iPhone 8 is going to face comes in the form of Apple's other iPhones. On a purely technical level, the iPhone 8 impresses. However, it feels like there's a degree of mental gymnastics i...
The iPhone 8 remains a solid device for those who prefer the smaller and lighter handsets that Apple used to make, but it's blown clean out of the water by the iPhone SE (2020). The compact design appears on both, but it's under the surface where the newe...

Unless you need to save money and buy the iPhone 8, then you're choice here is largely down to the screen.If you like the modern bezel-free design of the iPhone XR with its notch and Face ID then you're all good. It also has the advantage of a newer proce...
the iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus represents a significant step forward over the iPhone 7 range. Image quality is better, contrast is better, shots have more detail, low-light performance is better. Basically, everything is better. And this effect is compo...

Small size has added appeal in among typically larger phones, Wireless charging thanks to new glass back design, Dust- and water-resistant, Powerful innards
Lacks iPhone 8 Plus' camera skills, Need separate cable for Quick Charge, Glass makes it prone to drop damage, The familiar design looks dated
Compared to the iPhone 7, the iPhone 8 brings minimal upgrades. But compared to the iPhone 6/6S, wow, you'll be very pleased with the jump forward - particularly if you're seeking a familiar and compact phone.Apple isn't rocking the boat in the iPhone 8...
