Top 10 features of iPhone 8 – People are still waiting for the premium iPhone X to hit the market in November. But in the meantime, iPhone 8 shoppers have started to receive their brand spanking new phones.

On the outside, it may look like your iPhone hasn’t changed too much from the previous years, but there are many important and worthwhile internal upgrades to be excited about.


All‑Glass Design
The most durable glass ever in a smartphone, front and back. A color‑matched, aerospace‑grade aluminum band. New space gray, silver, and gold finishes. These phones have a full glass back to go with the glass faceplate. The glass itself is a custom Apple design in partnership with Corning that’s hardened even more than in the past. A lot of people considered iPhone 7 easy to drop because the highly polished aluminum casing could be slick. Having an all-glass body really helps alleviate that problem.


Wireless Charging
The glass back enables easy wireless charging. Apple’s embraced the Qi (pronounced “chee”) wireless charging standard, which is to say you can now use any Qi-compatible wireless charger to power up your iPhone.Currently, you can charge at 5 watts, but soon Apple will increase this to a faster 7.5W charging by way of an iOS 11.x software update. That is still a tad on the slow side, especially with the addition of wired fast charging.


Fast Charging
Using USB Power Delivery specification, 2017 iPhones now support Fast Charge technology. You can now power up your phone to fifty percent in less than 30 minutes. This doesn’t work with Apple’s standard USB-A power cable and 5W wall charger.

You’ll need to purchase Apple’s USB-C to Lighting cable along with a stronger USB-C wall charger like any of the ones that come with the new MacBook or MacBook Pros to fast-charge your new iPhone.
Increased Base Storage
When picking up a new phone, the base model no longer starts at a paltry 16GB or 32GB of internal storage. The cheapest iPhone 8 model now comes with 64 gigabytes of flash storage by default. This is great, especially as app sizes increase and we get to capture higher-frame rate 4K video at 60 frames per second.


Louder Speakers
The stereo speakers are now 25 percent louder than they were in the iPhone 7 series. That includes the earpiece that acts as the second surround speaker alongside the grill on the bottom. Bass has also seen some notable improvements. It sounds louder and more full than before and is great to go alongside video HDR support—better video and better audio.


Better Camera
Portrait mode on iPhone 8 Plus gets even better. For sharper foregrounds and more naturally blurred backgrounds. While the front and rear cameras on the new iPhones have retained the same megapixel count like on last year’s phones, they’ve been completely reengineered. There is a new color filter (Apple’s design), a larger and faster sensor and deeper pixels. That will result in faster no-lag photos, better action shots and much improved low light performance.

The Apple designed ISP embedded in the A11 Bionic system-on-a-chip also helps with hardware-assisted noise reduction, which dramatically improves sharpness in low-light conditions versus the software algorithm that older iPhones use for imaging.


New Video Shooting Mode
The stock Camera app is now able to shoot crisp 4K video at a silky smooth sixty frames per second, making the iPhone 8 series the first smartphones to do that. You also get Slow-mo video capture in 1080p at 240 frames per second.
True Tone Display
A Retina HD display that’s more beautiful than ever. With True Tone, a wide color gamut, and 3D Touch. True Tone displays pioneered on iPad Pros have made their way to the iPhone. True Tone technology automatically adjusts white balance to match the light around you. For a better viewing experience in all kinds of environments. With a wide color gamut and the best color accuracy in the industry, everything on the screen looks more brilliant and vibrant.


Monster A11 Bionic Processor
Introducing A11 Bionic. With four efficiency cores that are up to 70 percent faster than A10 Fusion. And two performance cores that are up to 25 percent faster. To go along with that GPU is A11 Bionic. Apple says the term Bionic was added because people payed more attention to it when it had a better sounding name than the boring “A9.”

It is a six-core CPU with two high-performance cores and four high-efficiency cores (versus two for the A10 Fusion chip). The high performance cores are 70 percent faster than the A10, and the high efficiency are 25 percent faster. In early benchmark, the A10 simply obliterates anything else on the market so Android competition has to play catchup.
HDR Support
Like the latest iPad Pros and the new Apple TV 4K, all models of iPhone 8 and iPhone X now support Dolby Vision and HDR10. You can see the designation inside of the iTunes Store, or in compatible apps like Netflix that have rolled out support.

Loool seen they'll said iPhone X is worth the price.

IT'S. NOT. WORTH.THE.PRICE!!!

gabe:
IT'S. NOT. WORTH.THE.PRICE!!!

There are reasons listed why it's worth it.
What's your reason(s) that it's not?

I agree. The Wireless Charging and Fast Charging makes it really worth it.

I am an iPhone user. I like them but as Woz said, there is nothing new about them

What's so special about the wireless charging and fast charging?

The reason it worth the price is because of it is iPhone, and the logo at the back. That's all, I don't see anything special or new about these features.

I don't get why apply users haven't agreed in this 2017 that the ONLY reason why the device is expensive is only because it's an IPHONE!

There's nothing more to argue!

It’s worth every penny. iPhone 8 has AR (Augmented Reality), it’s water resistant, and it is engineered down to the micron. It’s formed from glass, and the most durable glass ever in a smartphone, front and back. I was thinking how Apple built an iPhone out of durable glass that also allows for wireess charging. With aerospace grade 7000 series aluminum alloy. Please read tech reviews to know how much work is put into producing these phones. Thanks.

most of these features has been present in android phones . the xperia z2 is a good example. like the dude u quoted said, there is nothing special about. it doesn't worth the price.
mind you have had chances to use the iPhone, I turned them down my bro. used the iPhone 6 early 2015. have seen it all, apple devices are not that great the way pple make it look. in terms of hardware and innovation android manufacturers are way ahead. apple is just riding on it's customer loyalty and american product hype.

I get your grievances. just like any other apple user. deal with it, hardware wise android devices are better. the only reason why apple is better on the software side is because of the fragmentation in android. if a developer wants to develop for Apple devices he can easily, why? no. of apple devices are known, resolution are mostly the same. processors are the same. you can't say the same for android where there are different resolutions, processors, hardwares. that is why when you decompile a android apk file you will see files for different resolution. that is why you see apps are released on Apple devices b4 android. The android lags that are been said of is pretty much non existent. when you get a premium android device as Google has really tried on nougat and oreo. in terms of performance and lightness.
at the end of the day we all have preferences but the obvious is clear!

All the things you mentioned here are all on Samsung Midrange phones these days. Btw IPhone 8 fast charging is not really fast_ go watch YouTube fast charge tests. And Oh, the glass is so strong? If falls flat on your tiled floor it won't shatter? I hear you.
Plus op the picture you posted up there is not iPhone 8.

So water resistance is now such a big deal? Really. Only IP67 certified while Samsung phones are IP68 certified. Most durable glass, so they said bit I've seen it break from one fall. If iPhone 8 is so good, why did it record such low record in sales? Get your facts right dear.

Some time in the future, iPhones would get dual SIM support and it will become a great achievement

Its not worth it... My S8 Plus charger comes with fast charging, but to get fast charging on the iphone you have to buy a fast charger.
