Most recently Apple released its new smartphone models that the world is waiting out for. After so many expectations and rumours, Apple launched its smartphone models namely iPhone 8, iPhone 8 plus and the iPhone X in the official Apple launch event. These 3 smartphone models are capable of performing smart works that we are not experiencing till date. But the only thing that bothers is that all the 3 models are packed with cost starting with $699, $799 and $999 respectively.
After the launch of these smartphones we though that iPhone X would be a great hit in the market. But our assumptions went very wrong. There are many reasons to go for iPhone 8 plus then the iPhone X. In this post, we will show you 10 strong reasons to buy iPhone 8 plus instead of iPhone X.
10. Will face ID works in any condition
Unlocking the phone using face recognition through Face ID is the latest feature offered in the iPhone X. But unfortunately, this feature turned out to be a great drawback for the smartphone. Our face tends to change from time to time like growing beard, adding extra decorations to face, putting the face on heavy makeup, wearing cap and sunglasses. For all these reasons our face change completely and then the real question arrives will Face ID still recognize me? The answer will be no, and again you need to change your Face ID. Here fingerprint sensor will be a great choice.
9. Both iPhone 8 plus and iPhone X works on the same iOS
Most recently Apple released its latest operating system called iOS 11. This operating system will be applicable to all the 3 models. So there is no need to try iPhone X for different operating experience as we will have the same with iPhone 8. The all new iOS 11 will bring your phone to the whole new level with most advanced features you ever experienced on iPhone.
8. Same dual cameras
The iPhone 8 plus and the iPhone X models come with the primary dual cameras. Both the iPhone 8 plus and the iPhone X comes with the dual 12 MP+ 12MP primary cameras and also has the same front camera of 7 MP with the same video recording feature of 1080@30fps.
7. Network support
All these 3 smartphones support the latest network launches. The iPhone 8, iPhone 8 Plus and the iPhone X support 2G, 3G and 4G networks. And all the devices support VoLTE services. So that means there is no difference in going out for iPhone X instead of iPhone 8 for highlighting your network support.
6. Multimedia features
As we are expecting much more from the iPhone X there is nothing to speak about its features when compared with the multimedia features. All the 3 models support the same multimedia features like video player, audio player and consists of stereo speakers for all the 3 devices.
5. Wireless charging
Actually, this feature is the trendy feature which is raising just now and we are happy to have it on the iPhone models. Wireless charging makes your phone charge in a smart way without using lengthy charging cables. Fortunately, all these 3 devices support wireless charging. The only thing is that you need to purchase wireless charging pad separately to charge your smartphone. check wireless charger
4. Processors
Phone processors are responsible for the speed of CPU. Three of these phones have the same hexacore processor and these phones are specially made with the Apple’s new A11 Bionic chip, a neural engine. We have never experienced all-new Bionic chip which was specially made by Apple. I think we should wait till release to see how this chip works.
3. Most common features
I have expected that the iPhone X would come with a lot of new features which will not contain any common features. But it does have a lot of most common features that we are enjoying in every smartphone. The most common features include water resistant, fingerprint sensor, dustproof, AR, wireless charging and quick charging features.
2. Body protection
iPhone 8 and 8 plus model comes with the protective panel from all the sides of the screen. Even if you drop your phone unknowingly, the protective panel of the screen protects your screen from being damaged. But the iPhone X comes with an end-to-end display, that means the entire screen will be covered with the display. If unfortunately, you dropped the phone there will be no protection for your phone. If the display breaks it costs heavy than what you expect to be.
1. Most importantly its price
iPhone 8 $699 (Rs. 64,000) for 64 GB variant, iPhone 8 plus starts at the price of $799 (Rs. 73,000) and the iPhone X starts from $999 (Rs. 89,000). I think no one can invest more money on the phone that has similar features with less cost. You can save more money by choosing iPhone 8 Plus over iPhone X and enjoy the same features. With the savings over iPhone X, you can buy additional accessories.
