What is the iPhone 8?

4.7 and 5.5-inch LCD display

Faster A11 processor

Glass body

Upgraded camera

Louder speakers

Wireless inductive charging

The iPhone 8 design mixes some of the iPhone X with some of the older iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus. The overall design is the same as previous generation devices, but the iPhone 8 has glass back and glass screen which sandwiched in a aluminium frame. The iPhone 8 also keeps the home button / touch ID function found on the older devices.

The iPhone 8 is available in space grey, gold and silver and feature the most durable glass ever in a smartphone in a reinforced steel and aluminium structure that is claimed to be IP67 water and dust resistant. The stereo speaker setup in the device was updated to be 25% louder with much deeper bass.

Featuring a 4.7 inch display with true tone support the iPhone 8 is designed to adapt colour temperature and intensity to the ambient light in a room which gives a more natural viewing experience.

Giving the device a glass body allowed Apple to enable a Qi-Based inductive wireless charging feature which allows the phone to be charged wirelessly.

Inside the iPhone 8 there's a six-core A11 Bionic chip, which Apple at launch said was the smartest, most powerful chip ever introduced in a smartphone at the time.

With a 2^nd generation performance controller, all six cores can be harnessed at the same time for much improved speeds when handling multi-threaded workloads. There's an Apple-designed 3-core GPU that's 30% faster than the previous generation GPU, and two of the cores, the Neural Engine, make machine learning tasks faster than ever before.

The iPhone 8 also features improved back and front cameras which have upgraded sensors allowing over 80% more light in to the wide angle camera compared to the previous generation.

With the upgraded image signal processor and an Apple video encoder that enables faster video frame rates and real time image and motion analysis, video capture on the iPhone 8 and is better than ever. 4K video at 60 frames per second is supported along with 1080p slow motion video.
