Take a closer look at the iPhone 8’s big redesign in this HUGE gallery

Lots and lots of glass

Although the general shape and portrait will look the same, Apple’s iPhone 8 will transition to an all-glass design. The main reason, so far as we can tell, is for wireless charging, a feature that’s been widely adopted by Apple’s biggest competitors.

While an all-glass design looks nice—the Galaxy S8 is absolutely gorgeous—there are a few downsides. The big one is the device will be more fragile. If you were frustrated by splintered display, you’ll now have to worry about the backside cracking, too.

The other drawback is glass is impossible to keep clean. If you’re a clean freak, keeping your finger grease from smudging the glass panels will be a losing battle. This is one instance where a case might be a must.
