I got so sick and tired of using all the much larger smart phones, that I bought an iPhone 8 last week. I Love It!!! I have not had a problem with it yet. Not all of us smart phone users need or want a huge smart phone. Not all of us smart phone users live on our phones playing games and wasting time on social media. The small form of the iPhone 8 is such a breath of fresh air!

iPhone 8 is good, but for a bit more you can get the XR which is a lot better. If you want a small phone like the 8, save some more and get the SE instead. It will be a very good backup phone though.

I just bought a 13 mini PRODUCT Red, after over 4 years of loyal service from my iPhone 8 256 Gb. Battery when I returned it was 92%, so relatively OK. I rarely had to top up the battery before the end of the day. Basically the only reason I decided to get a new phone was that it was getting slow. What I really loved about it was the esthetics of it, easily the most beautiful phone I’ve had so far. Though my 13 mini’s gorgeous as well!

As someone who still uses the 8 and am going back to the store today to return the 13 with the plan to keep using the 8 for at least another 8 months, I would still recommend to someone who wants to save money to strongly consider the new SE 3 or older SE 2 if their plan is to use a phone as long as possible.

I like the iPhone 8. Before upgrading to the XR, I was using the 6s. However, while I like to iPhone XR’s larger screen, I still sometimes miss the old home button and the small and simple design. I might get either the SE (second generation) or the 8. I loved this video as it still goes to show that most of the phones that we have or love still get a good kick at our daily lives, especially now.

I'm in the Android (Samsung) universe due to the initial iPhones being too small, but my car only has Apple Car Play and I wanted to at least experiment with it. I didn't feel like buying a brand new iPhone so I went shopping, found an unlocked iPhone 8 for $150 and it hits on a great price point and even installed some apps to use on CarPlay as well.... and subscribed to the iOS Beta stream.

Great video. Since 4G and 5G are supposed to run parallel for several more years, now is the time to come to understand the used and dated phone markets. Most of my customers who don’t want to give up their button phone give the button as the primary reason. The gen 3 SE is for them, but people who won’t get a G3SE, the reason is clearly underlying because they still won’t budge. Cell phone buying can be a mini version of car buying. If your cell budget is limited, it’s a process you resist. One of my customers has been debating over a year. My own 20yo kid actually wants a flip phone, having had a smart phone since 12.

@@melissat922 your iPhone 8 Plus can be repaired. In many cases, it is simply a matter of finding a shop that will do the work. I do some of my own repairs, like screen replacements and battery replacements, but for more difficult work, I take it to a geek shop nearby. If you love your phone, it’s worth the money to fix it. iPhone 8 Plus is still going to be receiving updates for a while, so don’t give up if you love it!

Just ordered my iPhone 8 upgrading from 6s. 😂. I have had two 6s's. Had brief stint with iPhone 11 back to 6s within a week. I love the design and it's the right size for carrying in pocket. I don’t want something heavy and big. Prefer lcd over OLED display which causes noticeable strain on my eyes- therefore the 13 mini is no deal for me. iPhone 8 nearly 1/2 price compared to SE 256gb. I’m also wanting to detox on my portable mobile in 2022 so my main driver will be my iPad Pro which will stay at home. I’m only going to download essential functional apps-no social networking, shopping, etc. The 256gb storage will be great on the 8 as I take a lot of photos screenshots and videos-4K videos take up huge data. Big storage means less time having to continually transfer photos and videos when full. I have a portable battery charger which is works great for 3 full charges so won't have to worry with battery running out.

During past year finally I returned to Apple ecosystem when I bought my iPhone 8 Plus, and I use it as my main phone for everyday tasks like calls, work, social media, KZfaq, music and a bit of (Barely) casual gaming, let me tell you, this phone still feels like a fresh phone. It is quick, handles well multitasking, and feels a bit “premium” everytime I touch it. Also a big thanks to Apple since they continue to support and update this phone for so long. My only concern the is battery life since it goes from 100% to 10% every 24 hours or less, nothing much to do since older iPhones had little batteries.

I have an iPhone 8, and it’s perfect for me… I don’t take a lot of pictures. I just used my phone to send text messages and watch Netflix and KZfaq videos. I thought about upgrading after I finished my bachelor's, but honestly, I think I’ll wait and upgrade my phone after finishing my master's. I don’t have any issues with my phone, I haven’t noticed any battery issues, but it will be nice to have a phone that lasts a little longer. I think that battery will be my biggest reason to upgrade, not because my battery is not working but because new phones have a bigger battery and last longer.

Canadian reviewer eh? Well I took my two-year-old iPhone 8 to London Drugs a month ago and got a new Apple certified battery installed for $72 I think that’s a pretty good deal, and there’s really no slow down with this phone yet. I can’t say the same for the iPhone 7 I had for 2 1/2 years, it was struggling to load a Facebook page so I got rid of that and so far this eight has been perfect so I’m gambling by putting the new battery in it and hoping to get two more years. If I hadn’t put a new battery in my iPhone 8 I would’ve grabbed the amazing deal I saw on the Facebook buy and sell group for an SE 2020 with 98% battery health for $160! My friend will probably buy this one after I told him about it but yeah it is still fine for me I can still play PUBG and everything on it no lags

She has the 11 Pro Max and I have a 13 Pro Max, but I sometimes swap my SIM card to the 8 as I sometimes like carrying something smaller and a lot thinner. The 8 feels like holding a small thin graham cracker versus the 13 and 11 Pro Max’s. It’s fully still capable of simple browsing, social media, messaging, music, pictures, etc. I’m going to put a new battery in it.

Already, if we're going factory unlocked, Very Good - Refurbished, an iPhone 8 is $165 and an SE2 is $220. For your $55, you get a faster chip, just a newer phone in general, and an extra gig of RAM. There are also unseen differences I believe, since the faster chip allows the SE2 to do some new stuff. Like if you put an iPhone 8 and an iPhone SE2 side by side, despite having the same camera hardware, I think the SE would probably end up with better results. Now, to someone with $165 to spend on an iPhone, I could definitely understand the hesitation to spend another $55. For a $1,000 phone, an extra $55 would be a no-brainer. But for under $200? An extra $55 is almost another price bracket, really. So I guess my other question is, how's the battery life? Is there any way to use some sort of "power saving" mode on the SE2 to slow the chip down to save juice? Have the newer iOS versions done anything to help either phone? Is there actually a battery life argument to be made for CHOOSING the iPhone 8 over the SE2? I would love to get your thoughts on any of this.

I just got a samsung galaxy S10 for 180 bucks and it's phenomenal, the cameras are arguably better than my previous iPhone XS and it's so smooth- but my screen time has more than doubled and I can't seem to control it. I think it's too nice. Thinking about taking a step back and trading this for an iPhone 8

Isn't the SE 2 a better option especially since you can find them both at an equal price
@MarkSpurrell
@MarkSpurrell 2 жыл бұрын
If you can find them at the same price, then yes. But you can usually find the 8 for between $50 and $100 cheaper, at least on eBay.

Had iPhone 8 for like 3 years now never owned any other iPhone before. and I don’t want it to change, but I know soon the iPhone 8 run will soon have to end. I love iPhone 8 I love the design and I never want to change but I know I am going to have to.

If you want a home button and don’t mind the the single camera it’s a steal. However, the 11 is probably THE BEST value that apple has ever put out

I would not get the 8 but a bit higher one. My husband had a 7 and when it updated it refused to take a SIM card. I’m sure the 8 is next. We were forced to update. We decided to get my husband an “excellent condition” refurbished iPhone 11 and it wasn’t super expensive and hopefully will last for a good 3/4 years!

I’ve had the iPhone XS since 2 years and I Hate it. I’m down grading to an iPhone 8+, because I Need The Home Button! The facial recognition Sucks. It almost never works even when I’m Not wearing a surgical mask. I always have to swipe up and tap the screen and type 6 digits in and it takes me 5 seconds at least. In my line of work, I need to open my phone quickly to get some info as fast as possible. I truly hate that the home button is gone. Apple Needs To Bring That Back. It’s really ridiculous. Thanks for the informative video.
