From £699 FROM Apple, apple.com/uk FEATURES 4.7-inch Retina HD display with True Tone, A11 Bionic chip, 12MP camera, wireless charging
The iPhone 8 is here, and, it’s more or less exactly what you’d expect a new iPhone to be. Apple has improved the camera, tweaked the design, and extended the battery life, as well as introducing useful new features.
The iPhone 8 measures 13.8x6.7x0.7cm – fractionally larger than the iPhone 7. The size makes it a easy to hold and use one handed, which could be the killer reason to buy the iPhone 8 over anything else.
The iPhone 8 comes in silver, gold, and black. The gold is much truer to real rose gold than the previous ‘pinkness’. It boasts IP67 water-resistance, so it should survive in one metre of water for up to 30 minutes.
The stereo speakers are now louder – a clear improvement, but they still lack bass for true audiophiles. They do, however, create a pleasingly wide soundstage.
You don’t get the bezel-less display of the iPhone X and, as the iPhone 8’s design isn’t a massive departure from the iPhone 6 and 7, that does make it feel more dated. The iPhone 8 features a 4.7-inch 1334x750-pixel IPS LCD display which has a pixel density of 326ppi. That’s the same number of pixels as the iPhone 7 (and the three-year-old iPhone 6!). That’s quite surprising, as we were expecting a bump in resolution considering some Androids now pack QHD screens.
