iPhone 8 and 8 Plus review: Don’t overlook this shiny, speedy upgrade.
Apple releases a new iPhone every September, and it’s a given that it will be the best iPhone ever. But what do you do when the company announces not one, not two, but THREE new iPhones? How do you rank them and decide which one is the actual best iPhone ever, especially when they don’t all go on sale at the same time?
Because of this, the iPhone 8 and 8 Plus are at an unfair disadvantage right out of the gate. The iPhone X was announced at the same time and is the clear frontrunner when it comes to innovation—it has an all-new design with an edge-to-edge, bezel-less OLED display and a new FaceID technology that lets you unlock your iPhone just by looking at it (literally). The iPhone 8 maintains the same look and feel of the iPhone 6, 6s, and 7, with some changes and enhancements.

However, pushing the iPhone X aside, the iPhone 8 and 8 Plus make substantial improvements over last year's iPhone 7, which Macworld’s Susie Ochs said felt “like a beta version of what’s to come.” Well, the iPhone 7 is officially out of beta, and it’s called the iPhone 8.
