Rating
Expensive
Disappointing battery life
No 3.5mm headphone jack
Same design for fourth year in a row
Only available in three colours
Misses out on Portrait Mode effects
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
Lacks iPhone 8 Plus' camera skills
Need separate cable for Quick Charge
Glass makes it prone to drop damage
Familiar design might look dated the second iPhone X launches
The familiar design looks dated
Large bezels look dated
Fast charging costs extra
Difficult to get excited about
2014 design
Boring
Large bezels around the screen
No headphone jack
No fastcharger in the box
Design might become dated
They're not the iPhone X
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

Abstract: Apple launched the iPhone 8 and 8 Plus in September at the inaugural event held at the Steve Jobs theatre. Following Apple's previous naming schemes for the iPhone, there's an argument to suggest these devices should have been christened with the 7s monik...

Abstract: Reason No. 297 why waterproof phones are handy.A few years ago, you'd be hard pressed to find an elegant, premium phone that was also waterproof. Aside from Sony's Xperia phones, most waterproof phones were clunky-looking with mid-tier specs.These days th...
Excellent performance, Support for wireless and fast charging, Great cameras, AR apps and games are impressive
Dated design, Poor battery life, No headphone jack, Photos by Raj Rout
If you own an iPhone 7, there's absolutely no need to upgrade this year, but if you're using an older-generation iPhone, such as the 6 or 6s, you'll definitely notice the difference with the 8. While there are plenty of excellent Android options available...

You'll need to make your own mind up about this one, since it's a refined smartphone but a lacklustre upgrade. Had Apple included a fast charger and maybe some form of wireless charging pad, it would have matched the 8/10 awarded to last year's iPhone 7 P...
Abstract: We've seen a barrage of DxOMark camera reviews in the past few weeks, as several high-end smartphones came out, all of them sporting top-of-the-line camera experience. First, the camera pros declared the iPhone 8 Plus to be the best smartphone camera they...

When all is said and done, the iPhone 8 betters the G6 in a few key areas like camera quality, battery life, basic storage, processing speed and LTE network compatibility. And it should, since it is the more expensive one, starting at $699, against the LG...
Solid updates to both of Apple's standard iPhone models offer the same horsepower as Apple's upcoming iPhone X in a proven and familiar form factor. New allglass design brings back some of the “museumquality” elegance of the iPhone 4 era. Virtually identi
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
