Design might become dated
They're not the iPhone X
If you opt for the smaller 64GB handset
There's no way of expanding that amount of storage space through a MicroSD card
Fast processor, Great cameras, Superb image processing, Wireless charging, Excellent operating system, Countless apps
Design might become dated, They're not the iPhone X
The real problem here is that both these phones have a large iPhone X-shaped shadow falling on them, promising the future as loudly as the first iPhone did ten years ago. But to be honest, that's their worst failing.These are both excellent phones, with t...

The iPhone 8 Plus is a superlative phone with a spectacular camera, but wait for the upcoming iPhone X before buying: it promises to fold all of the key features of the 8 Plus into a smaller, sexier package...

The 8 Plus has a bigger, sharper screen (401 pixels per inch versus 326), and a bigger battery - estimated talk time battery life is 50 percent higher than the 8. It also gets a dual-lens camera on the rear, which among other things gives you access to Po...
This one really does come down to a personal decision over whether you want a small or large phone. If you can stretch to the extra £100 the iPhone 8 Plus is technically the better of the two, with a larger, higher-resolution screen, dual-cameras and long...

Wireless charging, Duallens camera with Portrait Mode and Portrait Lighting, A11 processor, cheaper than iPhone X
Mostly the same visual design as iPhone 6 Plus, Bulky
The iPhone X got all the headlines but in many ways the iPhone 8 Plus is a more appealing upgrade. You get many of the X's features: wireless charging (thanks to the glass back), the A11 Bionic chip, Portrait Lighting. And you don't lose the Home button...
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 kee...
