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

The iPhone 8 might be the last of its kind, the last Apple smartphone with a home button and IPS display. If this is the case, the Americans at least gave us a very good final chapter. We once again miss major new features or innovations, but the iPhone 8 still beats its predecessor in many regards.
Pros:
  • 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
Cons:
  • 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

“Familiarity breeds contempt,” or so the old proverb goes, and never has that been more topical than for the iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus. In any other year from the past decade, Apple’s new smartphones would be the topic of endless fascination and discussion.
Pros:
  • Wireless charging is convenient, Camera is excellent, A11 Bionic processor is fast, Battery life is solid
Cons:
  • 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?

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
Pros:
  • Blazingly fast, Camera borders on excellent, Great build that feels solid, Speakers are surprisingly good
Cons:
  • Pricey, Design is effectively four years old, Camera bump still irks, No headphone port
