The iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus rock a 4.7-inch and 5.5-inch Retina HD Display respectively. It features an all-new, super durable glass and metal body, and now supports wireless charging. The devices get new power from Apple’s latest A11 Bionic chip, and brand new 12MP main shooters. They’re are best cameras from Apple yet (even DxO says so!)The latest cutting-edge, btw, completely blows away the competition.
