Why I Still Use an iPhone 8 Plus in 2024?

Disclaimer: THIS IS NOT A REVIEW. No B-roll for this one guys, just an honest talk about my thoughts on using an older iPhone and upgrade considerations. Not my typical style of video but hoping it can help someone out there in the same boat.

I use the iphone 8 plus as my daily driver and I love it

as a commercial manager 44 years old, I'm using a non-plus iPhone 8 in 2024. It's slow but enough for daily works and life. I had an iPhone 11 and an iPhone 12 pro max but in the summer of 2024 I went back to the small home buttom iPhone.

This is actually a really good video. I see here in comments some people imagined it differently because of the title but it actually has the depth and he explains why HE still uses an iphone 8 +, whatever his reasons are and i think although it is different kind of a video than many consumers would expect, its good. I’ve been using iphone 6s until 2023 and i changed it for 4 years “old” Xs only because i kinda “inherited it”. People can buy newer versions, but many times it really solves nothing except their emotional need.

Great thing I learned in this video is upgrade when it solves the actual problem... Keep that realism in your videos...never be fake like other tech YouTubers..

iPhone 8 Plus was a great phone it had good cameras, innovative Touch ID, was a time when Apple cared, and iOS 12. One guy once said he’s not the type of guy to spend thousands on a phone. But it depends on the type of feature you want and need.

Just bought a 8 plus can’t wait to get it was one of my favorite phones never had a problem with it before I’m using the 7 now with no problems

There's nothing wrong with using an old phone. I still use the Samsung Galaxy S9+, a 6 year old phone that I bought 1 year after it's launch. Everytime a new piece of tech comes out, it's all just minimal upgrades and gimmicks. Not to mention, over priced, and software buggy on the 1st year it was launched. I won't be upgrading anytime soon because the phone still works.

I have an iPhone 8 Plus, I love it and will hold on to it till the cows come home.

as long as the phone serves it's purpose, enough is simply enough. Great video. Just subscribed.

I wish they bring back the 8 plus body back with the new chips

[atharvsinghal]

you are correct about that i too have an iphone 6s cause it fulfills my needs.You deserve way more subs than 423. You earned your 424 subscriber!

I could probably say the same about people who use wired earbuds and older &more affordable devices in 2024 like the Samsung A series and the older iPhones like the iPhone X and 11

Using older devices means you don’t have to spend thousands on the latest iPhone like the iPhone 15

i like the way he think 💭 thats make sense

[Hiatusflowerchild]

I’m using an iPhone 7 Plus right now lol

This year I decided to break my new phone habit that materialized when I switched to Apple. I started with the 11 and have upgraded every year. This year, I decided to stop. I still have my 14 Pro Max. I plan on keeping it. It's weird that this same urge doesn't apply to computers. I bought the M1 Macbook Air new and the M1 Mac mini refurbished. I'm completely happy with them. When I used Android, I primarily used the Samsung Note. My last was the Note 9 and I usually upgraded every 3 to 4 years. With Apple, I turned into a knucklehead! LOL I hope to stop that now. It's a waste. Nice video man.
