A weekend with the iPhone 8! | Pocketnow

This is the iPhone 8. The smallest version of Apple's current flagship, and probably the phone you'll see in most hands if you're in the US and certain other markets. A lot of people call it the iPhone 7s, for obvious reasons; but my first weekend with it has proven it to be more.

After a year using the iPhone 7 Plus as one of my primary phones, I decided to switch back. My After The Buzz video explains how I just didn't feel I was getting my money's worth. I never used the 2X zoom, and the battery life wasn't all that great. I've been using the iPhone 8 since Friday, and boy is it great to use a phone you can actually handle.

A weekend with the iPhone 8! | Pocketnow

I love my iPhone 8. The plus sized phones are too heavy and awkward, and the iPhone X is too expensive. The iPhone 8 is perfect for me.

The comments just show how Android fanboys can’t accept facts

Honestly speaking i prefer Pocketnow's reviews way better than many other "crispy" youtubers. You guys sound very humane and not just stay in between gray areas of techs of the world. Reviewers were supposed to help people make decisions and that's exactly what you guys do. At least for me. Love your videos.

He hid the wifi password like I was gonna track his location and use his wifi

Great review I also switched from the 7 plus to the iPhone 8 and I love it ..

One thing that I learned from Apple haters: Even if the video is coming from a trusted tech and/or phone channel like Pocketnow, the haters will always somehow someway call it "shit" and only point out the negatives regardless of the obvious positives. Honestly, iPhones will never be as shit as the haters make them out to be,

I have the 8 and I have 64 GB I LOVE IT

[CADCAMTUTORIALBYMAHTABALAM]

Watching this video on my note8. Still loving it. Have a good day everyone.

It’s always refreshing to wake up to a real review rather than some cheap specs run-down than many other youtubers do

[samdeur]

Control center has one BIG hidden problem! It doesn't turn of Bluetooth and wifi. I understand the idiot that thought that was a good idea probably someone wanting to reduce calls to the service desk hahaha

[EmilyKate]

I switched from the iPhone 7 Plus to the iPhone 8 and I much prefer the smaller size!

[MarkyMahn]

It's not the 7s, it's the 6sss

[mattattack]

How is it not the 7s, there have been bigger jumps with other s models. Not saying its a bad phone, but its definitely called the 8 for sales.

[Tom-vycb]

After using my 8 for a few months now I must say I absolutely love it! It’s a powerful phone and a great option for those that don’t want to waste 1000 on a phone. I would hands down recommend the iPhone 8!

[Lexusgx]

I’m still using 3 year old phone. iPhone 6. With iOS 11. Only issue is the battery doesn’t last long.

[torres]

I used to brag about my iPhone 7+'s killer battery life. But iOS 11 on my iPhone 7+ has caused my battery life to become kinda bad. Is Planned obsolescence true?? Could Apple be pulling a fast one to make us upgrade. If so, im going back to Android.

[danialtahir]

as a certified Apple iSheep, fanboy; it gives me immense pleasure to see my baby iPhone all grown up and impressing the experts and shit

[atomicorang]

You sir sold me on the 4.7 iphone 8!!! I cant justify pricing on the X series iPhone. Coming from Keyone Blackberry. The honeymoon is over between android and I. And its almost 11-2018

[swagatmalla]

Your name made the video more interesting than the iPhone.
