Same design for fourth year in a row
Only available in three colours
Misses out on Portrait Mode effects

Lacks iPhone 8 Plus' camera skills
Need separate cable for Quick Charge
Glass makes it prone to drop damage

Battery life
Although improved
Remains average
Lacks the dual camera sensors of its bigger brother
So you can't take shots in Portrait Mode
There's no way of expanding the storage with a MicroSD card slot for example
If you've bought the smaller 64GB handset and used all of that space

The iPhone 8 is a true refinement of the design that began back with the iPhone 6. As such it presents the pinnacle of this particular layout, with wireless charging a solid addition to the already tried-and-tested construction. It's fast, powerful, and r...
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 G7 has higher-Mp cameras with portrait mode front and back (the 8 offers no portrait mode at all), although Apple offers some better specs in terms of video. And early testing shows that LG has packed in some intriguing AI features that could improve...
