    I got the iPhone 8 Plus instead of the X because of the bezels. I’m still a fan of the home button. I’ll always love iPhones original layout.

      Really? You liked it? I found it a pinch too disingenuous with the excessive b-roll panning, the awkward/unatural increase in pitches of the narrator's otherwise very monotone voice, and the banal technique of placing other objects behind and/or around the main subjects of the camera. This type of contemporary, modern, silicon valley-esque directing is worn out, in my opinion. The only person that still does it well is Marques Brownley, but even his execution is starting to become quite apparent. For me, the illusion only works so long as the cinematography can be appreciated but not identified.

      Well, you can, you just have to put it back afterwards. Still, wireless charging is complete nonsense with those charging speeds. Everybody expected Apple to be holding off on this feature to make it right, and not to deliver the same crap that has been on the market since the beginning of the decade. Now, one has to wonder why they were holding off in the first place.

    I want to upgrade from my 2014 nexus 5. Was thinking of getting my first ever Iphone. Would the 8-64GB be a good option? Or maybe 7+ 128GB?
    X is not an option.
    Thanks!

    • @Mexicomank2
      @Mexicomank2 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Paulo Henrique L. Fernandes I recommend 64 GB if your a heavy user than 128 due to more apps, videos, and photos on there
      Also I like into the iPhone 6s if I was you that phone is a steal right now for the price but you do you

      I was thinking 600U$, but it seems that it can only buy the 7-32GB, which I dont want because of the limited storage. I was looking for a minimium of 64GB, so I raised the bar to 700U$

  • @EMKWANREVIEWS
    @EMKWANREVIEWS 7 ปีที่แล้ว +14

    One of the best detailed reviews. Love Nilay’s reference to design and comparing the iPhone8Plus to previous generations. But like was mentioned, the iPhone X is probably better to wait for given how close the top end 8 Plus is with the iPhone X.

  • @cruztube23
    @cruztube23 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    The iPhone 8 plus is very fast and is getting faster with every update. I own the one since mid November and it’s a joy to use. Camera is good, audio is awesome, battery is good, software is delightful as usual. I can recommend it to everybody

  • @sammaddison3473
    @sammaddison3473 7 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    This is my personal opinion, but I love the design of the 8, as he keeps reiterating that it's not the best design I really like the sleek modern design, especially the gold having a contrast between the aluminium frame then the blush pink/ cream back. That is my opinion as he said he doesn't like it but I like how they have refined the phone giving it extra details like the aluminium around the 8 camera lenses to make it pop, whether it is better than the Samsung I can't say until I get to have a look at this beautiful phone

    Aesthetically, the iPhone 8 looks better than the iPhone 10 (especially the gold/sand colored one), with a more justifiable price, and all of the same internals. I’d rather save money, keep Touch ID, and have extra bezel, than lose a home button, spends hundreds extra, and have a less aesthetically pleasing device.

      I still prefer the wired earphones that came with my 6S Plus. I have this JBL pair of bluetooth earbuds and oh my god the audio delay is terrible. Considering I paid a lot of money for those earbuds I was very dissapointed and made it clear to myself to just stick to my normal earphones. Plus, you have to worry about battery life and when you turn on bluetooth on your phone, it consumes the battery faster. I see no point in wireless earbuds unless you are JUST that EXTREMELY flustered with cables. I do use a wireless keyboard and mouse though.

      Depends on your budget. If you want more of a cheap iPhone, there's the 8 or Xr. It depends on which style you like better. The Xr has the new, "swipe to unlock" screen and the 8 has the home button, obviously. The iPhone 8 plus has a longer lasting battery, a bigger screen, portrait mode, etc. The base model's prices are (not including tax):
      CAD = Canadian Dollars
      USD = U.S Dollars
      iPhone 8 : 599 CAD or 449 USD
      iPhone 8+ : 749 CAD or 549 USD
      iPhone Xr: 800 CAD or 600 USD
      *_Or if you're willing to spend more money/Want the latest iPhone..._*
      iPhone 11: 979 CAD or 699 USD
      iPhone 11 Pro: 1379 CAD or 1000 USD

    QUESTION: I've been an Android user for ages. I don't even know how an iPhone works. But I'm thinking about switching to Apple simply because Apple phones have access to a lot more app features, and also because I want a better camera (I have a Galaxy S7 rn).
    So I'm just wondering, how much does the 8+ support?
    Like, I've heard that you have to keep upgrading your iPhone because the old ones won't support lots of new apps and new app features. Is this true? Is the 8+ new enough that it will at least support DSCO?
    Also, how long does it hold a charge on a normal day for you?

    i am upgrading for my nephew this info is invaluable. i'm going to look for your review of 10. The monetary diff for me is $18+ a month vs $25+ a month on my verizon plan to upgrade from I Phone 5s. I would like something HARD TO BREAK, cuz my nephew manages to crack so many screens despite Otter Boxes that I don't even WANT to get him a replacement phone for real. I really just wanna cancel the service, but as a teen he needs a phone for emergencies.. smh i'm leaning towards the 8, just for the $18/month price tag, but wonder is $7 more for the 10 is greater value...

    I'm too poor to watch this video. All of his stuff looks so expensive and sleek. Lol

    I have a 5s because my hands are small cause I’m 11 years old... should I upgrade to the 8?? 👀
