iPhone 8: 5 things to be excited about

The iPhone you know

The iPhone X is radically different than the iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus. Apple’s newest member of the iPhone family has an edge-to-edge screen, no home button and a vertically-aligned dual-camera setup on the back. To pack all of the new features inside the iPhone X, Apple had to implement an entirely new design.

Both the iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus, however, will have you feeling right at home if change isn’t your favorite.

These two phones actually look like a cross between Apple’s previous design languages. You’ll notice a glass back panel like the iPhone 4 and iPhone 4s, but the shaping and aluminum frame come from the iPhone 6 and iPhone 7. Apple was forced to reintroduce the glass back to enable wireless charging.

You’re still getting a top and bottom bezel, a home button with an integrated fingerprint scanner for Touch ID, and water resistance.

On top of keeping familiar features, Apple updated the specifications for the iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus. The Retina HD display now comes with True Tone, the cameras have larger and faster sensors, and an A11 Bionic processor makes the phone up to 70 percent faster than its predecessor.
