Score: 87.1 / 100

Apple iPhone 8 Plus is a top-notch cellphone launched many years ago, featuring a high-tech 2390 megahertz Hexa-Core 64-bit CPU, a huge 5.5-inches screen, and two cameras, a 12 megapixels back facing camera and a 7 mega-pixels front facing camera. We will get a better idea about this cellphone's wonders when we get into deeper details.

This phone construction combines Glass and Aluminum . Apple made this cellphoneavailable only in a lot of colors like gold, red, silver and space gray. This cellphone is only 6.24 inches long and 3.07 inches wide, but it is still able to fit a a 5.5 inches display. This cellphone is extremely thin and stilized, being just 0.3 inches thick. Apple appears to have forgotten about weight optimization in this 7.13 oz cellphone.

This phone includes a incredible 1080 x 1920 (Full HD) 5.5-inches screen, giving this phone a unique image quality.

This phone comes with an extremely powerful 2.39 GHz Hexa-Core 64-bit processor, bundled in the Apple A11 Bionic APL1W72 (10 nm) system chip and a huge 3 GB of RAM memory. This phone comes with a 256 GB big internal storage and although it doesn't have an external memory card slot, it is still enough to install tons of apps, games, pictures and videos without having to worry about running out of space.

This phone features two cameras, a 12 megapixels back camera and a 7 MP front camera. Its back camera lens has an aperture of 1.8 so it can take awesome pictures even in low-light conditions. It is capable of capturing videos up to 3840x2160 (4K) at 60 frames per second, and 1920x1080 Full HD slow-motion videos at 240 frames per second. To complete the camera, it also includes time lapse video and auto-focus.

The Apple iPhone 8 Plus has a 2691 mAh amazing Li - Ion non-removable battery providing the iPhone 8 Plus an extremely long battery life. An issue to consider is that this cellphone's battery is not removable so you won't be able to replace it when it starts to last shorter, while with its 2691 mAh you will probably discard this cellphone before it becomes an issue.

This phone includes WiFi connection (which can be provided to other devices around, acting as a mobile hotspot), LTE-A (4G) really quick connection type and also HSPA+ connection type (which is a slower 4G type) and fast 3G connection type, over HSDPA and HSUPA technologies. The iPhone 8 Plus uses a Nano SIM card for GSM networks.

This cellphone also includes many useful features as Fingerprint Identification, Wireless charger compatibility, NFC (to trigger actions, transfer data or make payments by holding your phone close to another NFC device or tag), Bluetooth (5.0 ) and GPS Navigation, and multiple sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer, Gyroscope, Barometer and Compass.

Apple is offering this cellphone for 949 dollars, which is a very high price for a cellphone this level. No matter if you want a cellphone for work, are an amateur photographer, will use it as a social device or are looking for a gaming cellphone, this phone is probably the correct option for you. Apple packs this phone with Lightning to USB Cable, Lightning to 3.5mm headphone jack adapter, Documentation , USB Power Adapter and EarPods with Lighting connector.
