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
The iPhone 8 is a perfect distillation of the classic Apple design. Dependable, familiar, fast, and more affordable than the iPhone X. It does feel a little behind the times in terms of looks, but performance is as good as almost any smartphone available...

The Nokia 8 Sirocco is a modern-looking phone with a nice big screen - although you should note that it is less modern-looking and has less of a big screen than many of its Android rivals, missing out as it does on the currently popular 18:9 aspect ratio...

Nobody is going to mistake either of these phones for a groundbreaking experimental design: even after a revamp the XZ2 still feels dated, while Apple has stuck with virtually the same design since 2014. (If you want a modern-looking iPhone, go for the iP...

These two phones share a sense of mild anticlimax: they are both fairly minor upgrades on their predecessors. But the S9 still feels like it's ahead in a lot of departments.It has a far larger and near bezel-free screen, better camera features, slightly b...
A11 CPU is MASSIVELY Powerful, Like What Apple's Done With iOS 11, Decent Camera
Too Expensive, Boring Design, Squiffy Performance, Average Battery Life
Would I buy this phone? Absolutely not. I can think of multiple phones I'd rather own and use than the iPhone 8. The camera is great, as is the A11 chipset, but that's not enough to warrant a price hike on a phone that is more or less indistinguishable fr...
