last Tuesday Apple held its conference Which was watched by tens of millions around the world and in it we saw a lot of new products, the conference lasted for more than 100 minutes, but the surprise is that Apple actually reviewed the advantages of the iPhone 8 in just 13 minutes, which made the main question after the conference. Is iPhone 8 and 8 Plus worth the acquisition? In this article, we answer you an inquiry.
Important clarification
◉ This article is a comparison targeting iPhone 7 and 7 Plus owners to answer their question. If you have a previous device like the 6s / 6, of course you will feel a big difference when you upgrade, and there is no room for doubt that you should upgrade to the iPhone 8 or wait for the iPhone X.
◉ This article is based on technical specifications announced by Apple as well as device testers. But he didn't get to us to test it.
◉ The decision to buy the iPhone is a personal decision, as only you will pay the money. We are here to give you our opinion on the phone but the decision is yours. We do not get a financial return from Apple for the purchase of its devices.
◉ iPhone X is out of scale in this article.
◉ Please read the article carefully and do not rush to comment. In points you may find us recommend buying, and in other points you may find the opposite.
the performance
It is the fastest machine? A question that continued for years, so the iPhone preceded and then Samsung introduced a phone that preceded the iPhone, so Apple responded and the conflict continues. But last year, the iPhone with the A10 processor outperformed everyone, both in the actual test (except for the OnePlus 5 recently) and of course in the point test. But as we have explained here, there is a phone that defeated the iPhone in a performance test, so Apple decided to present an unbeatable processor soon, which is the A11, before we explain, see a picture of the performance test between the iPhone 8 and the Samsung S8 phone.
The iPhone 8 achieved a result of 4188 points compared to 1991 for the Samsung S8 phone ... Of course, some may object that Apple always wins in the performance of the single core, but in the multi-core test, Android excels as it happened last year with the 835 processor in front of the A10. Well see the following picture:
The iPhone is more than twice the speed of the S8 in the single core and 49% faster in the multiple cores. The surprise is that the S9 processor next year will be Snapdragon 845 leaks that stated that it achieves 260 individual performance, in front of 4188 individual Apple processor, meaning that the individual Apple processor is 60% faster than any Android phone will be released within the next 12 months.
But the truth is, you won't feel the difference in performance quickly
Previous figures say the iPhone 8 is supernatural (it even surpasses on some computers), but actually until now all the applications and games are designed for the iPhone 7, so when you buy the device, you will feel that it is better, but not by a big difference. You have to wait several months to see games designed for the A11 processor, and here you will feel the difference in performance.
The performance difference is great, but the average user won't feel it easily
Camera
The second factor after speed is what phone you are Camera. Apple made many developments, so let us divide users into 4 sections:
Normal pictures: If your primary use of the camera is ordinary photos, you like a scene, so you take out the phone and take a photo, you will not feel a clear difference, and you may not feel a difference until at night (if Apple believes its propaganda).
professional pictures: You're someone who gets the camera out and stays for seconds or maybe minutes adjusting the lighting, angle and position to shoot. Here you will notice the difference in the sensors, especially if you bought the Plus version to take advantage of the portrait lighting adjustment mode as well as the Slow Sync feature.
Normal video shooting: You are on an occasion and you take out the phone and click to shoot a video. Do not expect any difference if you buy the iPhone 8. Apple itself did not mention the difference here, except if you are shooting 4K, you only have the option of 60fps (a minute will be approximately half a gigabyte).
Professional video: Almost the same as before, except if you are a fan of slow motion, as you now have 240fps shooting when shooting in FHD. Whereas, the HTC U11's best competitor offers 120fps photography.
If photography is a major factor for you, then consider buying an 8 Plus or X as we explained Previously
Miscellaneous points
◉ The iPhone 8 and 8 Plus screen includes True Tune technology that was exclusive to the iPad. Technology White balance the color according to the lighting around you to make the image more natural.
◉ Both iPhone 8 and 8 Plus work with Bluetooth 5.0, and this Bluetooth provides twice the speed, 4 times the coverage and 8 times the data. But until now there are no applications for it, but we may see exclusive uses for it in the future.
◉ iPhone 8 and Plus support wireless charging and fast charging.
The weight of the iPhone 8 increases by 7 grams, while the weight of the Plus version is 10 grams. The iPhone 14 Plus is the heaviest phone Apple made in its history, and it reaches nearly five kilos - 8 grams - which is two-thirds the weight of the iPad mini.
◉ Apple reduced the battery capacity by 7-8% in the 8 family compared to the 7 family, but it made clear that the performance is stable because the processor consumes less energy.
◉ There are camera enhancements to support virtual reality features.
◉ Apple supported USB 3.0 speed on iPhone 8 and Plus version (unconfirmed).
Apple has supported the European Galileo system, as well as the Chinese BDS positioning system on the iPhone 8.
Comment iPhone Islam
If you are a regular iPhone user, you will not feel much change. Also, the professional user will not feel the change once the phone is released. But after months, games and applications, as well as accessories designed for the iPhone 8, will start appearing, and Apple will be interested, as usual, with updates in iOS that include exclusive features for the iPhone 8. Personally, if I have an iPhone 7 (or Plus), I will not buy 8 until after I watch it first. With a friend and try it out. If I have a phone before 7 like the 6s, the difference is huge and it is really worth the upgrade.
Do you intend to own an iPhone 8 or 8 Plus? Or will you decide to wait for the iPhone X
Sources:
Guys, I have a question about charging an iPhone 8 Plus battery.
Do I charge the phone after using it for a long time, for example, the charge becomes 10%, and then charge it again?
Or I charge it even if the battery is at 50% or above.
And does it cause damage to the battery when it is charged, whether it is less than 20% or more than 50%.
Please advise me, the topic is necessary for importance.
I have an iPhone 6s+, unfortunately it went into the pool with me 😩 last week at Jeddah's Durrat Al-Arus Chalets, No. XNUMX 😂 so I will wait for the iPhone X 💕
You did not mention how the device looks amazing, which is important to many. I will own the device for its wonderful glass shape
Your article is also great
My device is 6 Plus and my use is very normal (social media and YouTube) only
If I buy 8 plus, will there be a difference?
I'm honestly thinking about the x because the screen is so big and the size is smaller than the plus
But the price is hesitant
Wonderful article 👍👍👍
I have iPhone 5 for four years
And I will buy an iPhone 8+, with the largest capacity, God willing
Waiting for the Galaxy S9.
We see creativity from Samsung, and God thrilled us with Apple every year, disappointment !!
Nice article
I am my iPhone 4s with its old system IOS 6, I did not upgrade it or update its system and enjoy it on the other and it has now five years with me from the date of its release and all I wanted to change I do not have the right opportunity
God bless you, my brother, you are a hard worker and not a consumer.
God bless you
Was it not affected by the articles that tempt the reader to mention the advantages of the new system updates throughout these years?
You look Nasrawi
Finally, we found Apple fans who talk with logic, on top of which is Yvonne Islam, and God is very happy for you and I hope that Apple learns from its mistakes in the future and that Apple will remain in competition and provide new specifications and features that will contribute to advancing the development of hardware and software (How am I with you and I am sane) 😂
A historical miracle, my friend, to become sane
.
I never expected you to wish Apple well “because of you and your previous comments :)”
But gloating for the last moment expected you to "even though you really did it this week"
.
The reality of the iPhone X is great, but there are no fundamental changes, and I do not feel a difference between it and my phone 6S Plus
But do not forget iOS 11, it is the most wonderful thing Apple has offered up to this moment, and I really hope that you can try it when it comes out tomorrow, God willing
The first time my brother, you say something that settles problems
Tomorrow is the date for ios 11, God willing
You mentioned that you sold an iPhone 7 to buy a Note 8 ...
If you wait a while, try the awesomeness of iOS 11
Note 11 The rest of a pre-reservation in Saudi Arabia has not been officially released .. You don’t know, you can exchange the Galaxy SXNUMX with the iPhone XNUMX Plus and try the IOS XNUMX so that the note XNUMX will come down .. Its price is currently XNUMX riyals, and if you wait until the iPhone x is released, the price of the note becomes XNUMX riyals or Less 😉
Why do I not wish for good for Apple previously and I mentioned that I have tried all Apple products except 💻 💻 IPad Pro Is there a reasonable person who hates a company and buys its products with his money Who defeats Apple’s policy and fears in the future forcing us to have a monthly subscription to Apple Stote 😔
It is this question that I was asking myself: How does he say that we are in clear delusion and that he wishes to wake us up from negligence while using the same devices we have
.
Little time left on iOS 11, try it on someone else's phone before you don't download your Note 8 in Saudi Arabia and buy it
You might change your mind a little bit about the iPhone in general, I think that it has a little freedom and breathing like the Android system, Apple's policy, despite its severity, is no longer the same after Steve Jobs and all its money increases the amount of freedom😉
I am lost in technology in general and I love to change and get ripped off by the system, whether it is Android or IOS. The longest time that the device sits with me is XNUMX months 😂
Dear, the difference is huge, the size of the phone is smaller than the plus and the screen is bigger
The screen quality is impressive
I am waiting for iPhone 10
The topic that I was really waiting for, I feel that you are the most honest website that talks about the iPhone and the importance of customers to you, thank you from the heart, iPhone Islam (:
The fall continues
Peace be upon you. Thank you for these useful articles. I own an iPhone XNUMX+. I don't think about an upgrade at all
Indeed, I have been with iPhone 6 for two years and I do not see any difference that forces me to change to 8 x possible to experience the screen only.
Yourself, my brother’s words, I don’t even think about the iPhone X. May God willing, next year, I can find something better than Apple
Whoever owns an iPhone 6s and above is extravagant. Upgrading to iPhone 8 I offered to the contact company Hon in China to give me iPhone 8 in exchange for renewing my contract with them for two years, so I refused.
The topic is about the iPhone. Is it worth buying, in my opinion, of course I will not be the best Android device, much cheaper, with higher specifications in terms of screen and battery!
The fast charging feature in the new iPhones needs a USB-C port, through which you can charge 50 percent of the battery within half an hour
But the problem is that Apple will continue to distribute a USB-A cable with the new phones, which means that the user will not benefit from the fast charging feature in exchange for what he paid for the phone.
To take advantage of the fast charging feature, the user must pay for a USB-C adapter that Apple sells for $ 49, then he must buy a USB-C cable and the other, Lightning, that connects to the phone at a price of $ 25.
With all your preferences, it is not guaranteed that the feature is actually present in the new devices because Apple did not mention that it supplied the devices with USB Type-C ports and did not talk about it at all about the time it takes to charge, then it may not be as effectively as the true fast charging feature.
It gives you wellness on this special topic and the accurate comparison, but I wish you would download the same topic on iPhone X and thank you for your wonderful efforts
I think that iPhone XNUMX is an excellent upgrade for those with the iPhone XNUMXS. As for iPhone XNUMX, for the safety of God on them .. So far, there is no fundamental difference, and it is better to wait for the next year.
True
And God is the same as my opinion 👍🏻
Try to love some guys, with or without the new iPhone ...
I own an iPhone 6 and I am still waiting for a real-life comparison between the iPhone X and Note 8.. It is a beautiful thing to love a certain system and device from a company and master it, but for the prices to reach the point of extortion from my point of view.. No and a thousand times no.. There are many competitors. The iPhone 8 is not worth owning..
I think God knows best. She will have some kind of setback
The iPhone 8 and 8 Plus is nothing new in it
Rather, they are more a loss than a gain for the average user
And the iPhone X may be the one who will top it, not because of the characteristics it contains, but because the people of Al-Fakhrah and Al-Muhait are only those who may God have mercy on them.
And I am as a sane person because I buy a device that has complex and strange new things that may fail or succeed
I like to take a lesson, not be a lesson
Thank you iPhone Islam for this article
I have an iPhone 6+ and a Huawei Mate 8. I was waiting for the iPhone
I own an iPhone 7 and I will wait for the X because I think a wonderful phone in which Apple gathered most of the features that I hoped for, and I can keep it with me for at least two years without a better phone coming
IPhone every XNUMX years, you feel a change in hardware and system
Whoever has 6 or XNUMXs remains on it and does not change to XNUMX or x
I have an iPhone 6 Plus and I was thinking of an iPhone 8, but I see my device still works well and serves me, so I decided to keep it with me for another year to save money and to feel a strong jump with the next iPhone
I will wait for the iPhone X very hard until it arrives in order to buy it if it really arrives in our Arab world ..
We heard that the quantity is limited, and this will undoubtedly be implemented in the students' advance in the home country.
I own an iPhone 6 and I am tired of it because its screen is small so upgrade is required ..
Thank you iPhone Islam team, or rather Zaman, for the nice article.
I own an iPhone 6, but I do not see a difference in the new iPhones in order to change the iPhone, and I did not see differences or differences in order for the latest phone to not come new because whenever I update my phone, I did not see any difference in the battery and I am a fan of Apple I was hoping that there would be a difference in the battery where the Samsung battery I think It lasts for a long time, and also the Bluetooth has not worked, so why is Apple doing something that did not work?
It is better to wait until you see the phones in nature, but in my opinion, the one worth buying is iPhone X only
Not worth
By God, these are media campaigns only ... to encourage people to love curiosity and pay fictional sums for adorned goods such as a piece of candy, which is first and foremost sugar .. and there are more and more sophisticated people.
(And many strangers) Not everyone is like this
There are acquisitions, or loyal people.
Their hobby is to acquire the latest products produced by their favorite company ... just like a member of my family, and you will really find him insulting the device and the company but buying it in the end! Just because he loves her despite not liking her this time (loyalty to her) 😁
No matter how advanced the Android system is, the iPhone remains lover, and Apple remains the finest and most secure, powerful and attractive system 😍❤️😍
I have an iPhone 6, should I buy an iPhone 8 or an iPhone 8 Plus?
If you prefer the big screen, buy the Plus
Peace be upon you, my dear brother. I have participated in several topics (about 4 times during this year), but unfortunately, every time I do not find my participation.
Please inquire
شكرا
I didn't own an iPhone 8/8 + / x
I will wait for the iPhone for the next year
By virtue of the fact that I own an iPhone 7+ and I am a regular user
Greetings to you iPhone Islam site
Great article Thank you
The question is when will iPhone X arrive?
What are its differences from iPhone 8
My purchase of the iPhone depends on the iOS system .. I bought the iPhone 5 as soon as it was released, and last year I changed it to the iPhone 7 .. I will not change it until its support stops 😁
I ordered the iPhone XNUMX from a website, but it was canceled, and I don't know why! I would have bought it and would love to renew, but since it was canceled, I would have patience with the x
There is a point that you mentioned and baffled me, which is that Apple reduced the size of the battery even though the consumption is the same compared to the previous version, so I wonder: Why not make it the same as the previous one so that the period of use increases more than before?
شكرا لكم
In my opinion, the iPhone 6s for the average user is enough or more than enough
If I steal my phone, then I will move to the iPhone 7, not the iPhone 8, as the price difference is without a big difference in the capabilities.
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Verse Also basket
For me the factor will be the iOS 11 performance on my iPhone 6s
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 Me too
I don't see any creativity or nice features.
Wait iPhone nine I expect it is also disappointing
I am waiting to own the iPhone 10
But when it comes out, I would like someone to buy it to tell us his experience, is it worth buying and paying $ XNUMX or not .. Thank you Yvonne Islam team for this wonderful article and for your efforts
As I said, and I repeat it, there is no new mention in the iPhone for those who own an iPhone XNUMX, myself and who is a regular user
By the way, I remember that last year you said that numbers are not everything. I don’t know why they love Apple. Numbers have attracted them now.
Enough for iPhone 6👏
I do not change it as long as it contains the latest version 👍
I switched from 4s to 6 because Apple has discontinued support for it
Therefore my phone is still more than two years old
I wonder who shares my opinion
Share your opinion
I own 6s
You too
I strongly support this vision, there is no need to change as long as the latest update is supported by you, and this is distinct from others in the updates
Me too
I was a 4S owner, then I moved to 6S due to the end of its life and its weakness, then I moved to 7+ because the device was damaged and completely destroyed as it cannot be repaired
Well done
👍🏻
There are no differences for Evoan 7
In my opinion, not worth the acquisition
I use iPhone 6 and I will exchange it for iPhone 7 in matte black color. As for the iPhone X, I consider it a drop from Apple.
1- iPhone 8, an updated version of iPhone 7, but at a higher price, so why pay more ?!.
2- Face id will by no means be more secure than touch id.
3- Important applications (for me) such as the bank application depend on touch id and it will take a long time to update to depend on face id.
God willing, a logical response convinced me 👍🏻
My opinion is waiting for iPhone next year..and I currently have the 6s Plus
I will do like you 👍🏻
Bluetooth XNUMX has the advantage of being able to pair with two headsets at the same time ,,,
Thank you. Question of who got the gold version, will he receive an update when the iOS 11 system is released?
Give me one to try and tell you which is the best
????
Would you promise to return it :)
A month with me and a month with you 😂
????????
In my opinion, if you own an iPhone 6 and above, the iPhone 8 is not worth buying
But the situation may be different with the iPhone X. Whatever your device, there will be a big difference in view of the size and resolution of the new screen
* Everyone is free to do what they do, but let me say that it is naive to change the iPhone every year because of the beautiful and deceptive Apple marketing, especially for those who only use it to communicate or use the usual usual programs.
Nice and heartfelt words
Salamat iPhone 6 is an old version. You can spend with you if your device needs to be upgraded to 6s after two generations of Apple devices
Nice brief response. Bless you.
Waiting for iPhone X
Better I was waiting for this article ❤️
You compare the processor with Android devices, but when you talk about the battery, charging, port, screen, and front camera, you talk in a hurry as if something was taken from you. And you do not touch on comparisons, such as when you compared the processor with other companies (S8) specifically... Even when you are advising, the drums are beating
Who told you that the battery is not fancy ?! And who told you that there is no express shipping?
Both are available
You are on the iPhone Islam site
If you do not like the iPhone, read the Android articles ...
A very logical article and thanks to the writer
Aruj I liked your criticism a lot
Whoever said that the battery is not a superhero in the iPhone I own an iPhone Seven Plus and the battery lasts from morning to the end of the day with ease although my use is in conjunction with the Internet on 4G and with VoiceOver and it is known that it consumes the battery, fast charging and wireless is present in the iPhone XNUMX and my device It charges approximately in two and a half hours when using the iPad charger
Whoever said that the iPhone's front camera is not excellent, Flute noted that all social media celebrities use the iPhone in photography, and this is the biggest proof of the success of the iPhone's front cameras in photography.
