Rumours had been circulating that Apple planned to refresh its iconic design, but when the mainstream iPhone launched, it looked almost identical to the iPhone 7.<\/p>\n<p>For the regular iPhone 8, that was a major problem. Criticised for its conservative looks, it was almost finished off when Apple launched the flagship <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mozillion.com\/public\/resources\/apple-iphone-x-review\/\">iPhone X<\/a> just two months later. The iPhone 8 Plus fared better, though - it was the only big iPhone you could buy until the iPhone XS Max launched a year later.<\/p>\n<p>The iPhone 8 Plus was undoubtedly a step up from the iPhone 7 Plus, with an improved camera, screen and battery. It also had a better rear camera than the iPhone 8. But while it\u2019s a big phone, the iPhone X actually has a bigger screen.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"et_pb_column_9 et_pb_column et_pb_column_1_3 et-last-child et_block_column et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode_passthrough\"><div class=\"et_pb_text_9 et_pb_text et_pb_bg_layout_light et_animated et_pb_module et_block_module\"><div class=\"et_pb_text_inner\"><p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/res.cloudinary.com\/mozillion\/image\/upload\/f_auto,q_auto\/v1635344654\/PXL_20211005_092805745_futx1s.jpg\" alt=\"Apple iPhone 8 Plus in a hand image\" \/><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"et_pb_row_5 et_pb_row et_block_row\" id=\"design\"><div class=\"et_pb_column_10 et_pb_column et_pb_column_4_4 et-last-child et_block_column et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode_passthrough\"><div class=\"et_pb_text_10 et_pb_text et_pb_bg_layout_light et_pb_module et_block_module\"><div class=\"et_pb_text_inner\"><h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>iPhone 8 Plus - design<\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"et_pb_row_6 et_pb_row et_block_row\"><div class=\"et_pb_column_11 et_pb_column et_pb_column_4_4 et-last-child et_block_column et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode_passthrough\"><div class=\"et_pb_text_11 et_pb_text et_pb_bg_layout_light et_pb_module et_block_module\"><div class=\"et_pb_text_inner\"><p>The iPhone 8 Plus may look the same as its predecessor from the front, but at the back it\u2019s a different story. The metal back of earlier iPhones prevented inductive charging, so Apple replaced it with a glass panel - a feature they\u2019ve retained ever since. It\u2019s polished here, and home to just a small camera mound for the twin lens rear system.<\/p>\n<p>Pick up the iPhone 8 today and it looks like a tiny screen lost in a small phone. That\u2019s not the case with the iPhone 8 Plus - mainly because its screen is much bigger in relation to the borders above and below it. Its curved sides are similar to later iPhones, so they\u2019re comfortable to hold, even though the phone\u2019s width makes one-handed typing a chore. That said, it\u2019s marginally smaller than the iPhone 12 Pro Max - and 36 grams lighter than the iPhone 13 Pro Max.<\/p>\n<p>While the iPhone 8 Plus is dated, it\u2019s also a classic - even today it looks good in Space Grey. It\u2019s visibly not the latest thing, but surprisingly appealing all the same.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"et_pb_row_7 et_pb_row et_block_row\"><div class=\"et_pb_column_12 et_pb_column et_pb_column_1_3 et_block_column et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode_passthrough\"><div class=\"et_pb_text_12 et_pb_text et_pb_bg_layout_light et_animated et_pb_module et_block_module\"><div class=\"et_pb_text_inner\"><p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/res.cloudinary.com\/mozillion\/image\/upload\/f_auto,q_auto\/v1616913804\/pzedm4fay22l5hr8qcnr.png\" alt=\"Apple iPhone 8 Plus Front\" \/><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"et_pb_column_13 et_pb_column et_pb_column_1_3 et_block_column et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode_passthrough\"><div class=\"et_pb_text_13 et_pb_text et_pb_bg_layout_light et_animated et_pb_module et_block_module\"><div class=\"et_pb_text_inner\"><p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/res.cloudinary.com\/mozillion\/image\/upload\/f_auto,q_auto\/v1616913804\/iauwad49wdm7scrhezgm.png\" alt=\"Apple iPhone 8 Plus Side\" \/><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"et_pb_column_14 et_pb_column et_pb_column_1_3 et-last-child et_block_column et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode_passthrough\"><div class=\"et_pb_text_14 et_pb_text et_pb_bg_layout_light et_animated et_pb_module et_block_module\"><div class=\"et_pb_text_inner\"><p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/res.cloudinary.com\/mozillion\/image\/upload\/f_auto,q_auto\/v1616913804\/luope4fwhaqlozwwvne4.png\" alt=\"Apple iPhone 8 Plus Back\" \/><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"et_pb_section_2 et_pb_section et_section_regular et_block_section\"><div class=\"et_pb_row_8 et_pb_row et_block_row\" id=\"display\"><div class=\"et_pb_column_15 et_pb_column et_pb_column_4_4 et-last-child et_block_column et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode_passthrough\"><div class=\"et_pb_text_15 et_pb_text et_pb_bg_layout_light et_pb_module et_block_module\"><div class=\"et_pb_text_inner\"><h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>iPhone 8 Plus - display<\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"et_pb_row_9 et_pb_row et_pb_row_1-4_3-4 et_block_row et_block_row_1-4_3-4\"><div class=\"et_pb_column_16 et_pb_column et_pb_column_1_4 et_block_column et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode_passthrough\"><div class=\"et_pb_text_16 et_pb_text et_pb_bg_layout_light et_animated et_pb_module et_block_module\"><div class=\"et_pb_text_inner\"><p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/res.cloudinary.com\/mozillion\/image\/upload\/f_auto,q_auto\/v1635344953\/IMG_0001_vdcaax.png\" alt=\"Apple iPhone 8 Plus Display\" \/><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"et_pb_column_17 et_pb_column et_pb_column_3_4 et-last-child et_block_column et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode_passthrough\"><div class=\"et_pb_text_17 et_pb_text et_pb_bg_layout_light et_pb_module et_block_module\"><div class=\"et_pb_text_inner\"><p>The iPhone 8 Plus improves over the regular iPhone 8 with a 5.5\u201d display - roughly 35% bigger than the smaller phone\u2019s 4.7\u201d screen. Importantly, its native resolution is 1,920x1080, which means it can show 1080p HD content without having to downscale it. It\u2019s not a bad display, but compare it to newer LCD screens like the one on an iPhone XR and it seems less clear, less evenly backlit, and less bright, even if it has a higher pixel density (401 pixels per inch vs 326ppi).<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, the screen has a bigger problem. Two months after the iPhone 8 launch, the iPhone X arrived. Despite being much closer to the regular iPhone 8 in size, its lack of borders meant it could squeeze in a bigger panel than even the iPhone 8 Plus. Worse still for this big phone, the iPhone X\u2019s OLED display has a far higher resolution, is brighter and offers vastly improved contrast.<\/p>\n<p>Ditching the bezels from the iPhone X onwards allowed Apple to transform its iPhone screens. Nearly all iPhones launched since the iPhone 8 Plus have a bigger and better screen, and Pro Plus models particularly do. In other words, we wouldn\u2019t buy this phone for its screen.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"et_pb_section_3 et_pb_section et_section_regular et_block_section\"><div class=\"et_pb_row_10 et_pb_row et_block_row\" id=\"camera\"><div class=\"et_pb_column_18 et_pb_column et_pb_column_4_4 et-last-child et_block_column et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode_passthrough\"><div class=\"et_pb_text_18 et_pb_text et_pb_bg_layout_light et_pb_module et_block_module\"><div class=\"et_pb_text_inner\"><h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>iPhone 8 Plus - camera and video performance<\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"et_pb_row_11 et_pb_row et_block_row\"><div class=\"et_pb_column_19 et_pb_column et_pb_column_4_4 et-last-child et_block_column et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode_passthrough\"><div class=\"et_pb_text_19 et_pb_text et_pb_bg_layout_light et_pb_module et_block_module\"><div class=\"et_pb_text_inner\"><p>While the iPhone 8 camera wasn\u2019t great, the iPhone 8 Plus had some important upgrades. Most significantly, it has a 12-megapixel, two-camera system, including telephoto and wide lenses. It also has Portrait Mode - which means far more creative and flexible portrait shots - but only on the rear camera.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately this phone doesn\u2019t have Night Mode, available since the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mozillion.com\/products\/apple\/iphone-11\">iPhone 11<\/a>. With smaller lenses and sensors than today\u2019s phones, it can\u2019t capture as much light, so low-light photography is particularly disappointing. We\u2019ve used the latest iPhones to take a portrait in a small bathroom lit only by another phone\u2019s screen. With the iPhone 8 Plus we needed to hold the screen up close to the subject\u2019s face.<\/p>\n<p>It may not match today\u2019s cameras, but this is still a decent camera for everyday snaps. It copes well in a variety of reasonable lighting conditions, producing strong portraits in particular. It\u2019s got some useful video features, too, including 4K support, and 1080p slow-mo at up to 240 frames per second.<\/p>\n<p>The front camera is more basic. With only 7MP it can\u2019t shoot 4K video, and there\u2019s no Portrait Mode or image stabilisation. Overall the iPhone 8 Plus is OK for casual snappers, but if you\u2019re more serious about photography or filmmaking, you\u2019ll need something newer.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"et_pb_section_4 et_pb_section et_section_regular et_block_section\"><div class=\"et_pb_row_12 et_pb_row et_block_row\" id=\"performance\"><div class=\"et_pb_column_20 et_pb_column et_pb_column_4_4 et-last-child et_block_column et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode_passthrough\"><div class=\"et_pb_text_20 et_pb_text et_pb_bg_layout_light et_pb_module et_block_module\"><div class=\"et_pb_text_inner\"><h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>iPhone 8 Plus -

While it\u2019s still a decent processor, it\u2019s now far behind the latest iPhones and much of the Android competition.<\/p>\n<p>While the iPhone 8 won\u2019t run the 3D Mark Wild Life Extreme benchmark, this phone will. It\u2019s the newest iPhone that can\u2019t beat a score of 1,000, managing just 854. That\u2019s less than half what you\u2019d get from an iPhone 12 Pro Max, and behind lots of mid and high-end Android phones. We should also point out that, like other iPhones, this one slows down to manage heat. During 20 one-minute loops of this benchmark, its lowest score was 589 - a fall of 31% compared to peak performance.<\/p>\n<p>In 2017, this phone would have been the one to beat in Geekbench 5. Its single-core score of 922 is still impressive, being about 57% of the 1,605 we recorded from the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mozillion.com\/products\/apple\/iphone-12-pro-max\">iPhone 12 Pro Max<\/a>. But while it\u2019s still ahead of all but the fastest Android phones in this test, its multi-core score of 2,145 is well beaten today by even mainstream competitors.<\/p>\n<p>This isn\u2019t a bad performing phone, but it\u2019s some way short of today\u2019s quickest. There\u2019s plenty of grunt here for general use and a bit of light gaming, but if you want the fastest frame rates, you should look at something newer.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"et_pb_section_5 et_pb_section et_section_regular et_block_section\"><div class=\"et_pb_row_14 et_pb_row et_block_row\" id=\"battery\"><div class=\"et_pb_column_23 et_pb_column et_pb_column_4_4 et-last-child et_block_column et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode_passthrough\"><div class=\"et_pb_text_26 et_pb_text et_pb_bg_layout_light et_pb_module et_block_module\"><div class=\"et_pb_text_inner\"><h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>iPhone 8 Plus - battery performance<\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"et_pb_row_15 et_pb_row et_pb_row_3-4_1-4 et_block_row et_block_row_3-4_1-4\"><div class=\"et_pb_column_24 et_pb_column et_pb_column_3_4 et_block_column et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode_passthrough\"><div class=\"et_pb_text_27 et_pb_text et_pb_bg_layout_light et_pb_module et_block_module\"><div class=\"et_pb_text_inner\"><p>Apple has made big strides in battery life since this phone was made, and the iPhone 8 Plus doesn\u2019t compare well to newer devices. When new, Apple said it could last for 14 hours of video playback on a single charge - an hour longer than the iPhone 8. In our test it looped an HD video for just short of 10 hours, which is more than two and a half more than we got from the regular iPhone 8. That\u2019s not bad, but the iPhone 11 Pro Max lasted almost twice as long in the same test. In practice, you\u2019re likely to get a day\u2019s use out of this phone, provided you don\u2019t overdo it on Netflix.<\/p>\n<p>You can charge quickly when you need to. Using a 20W charger we topped up to 50% in 28 minutes, and got to 80% in 56 minutes. A full charge completed in just over two hours. It\u2019s handy to be able to charge wirelessly if you want to avoid clutter. Chucked on the Qi dock in a modern car, the iPhone 8 Plus charged without incident.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"et_pb_column_25 et_pb_column et_pb_column_1_4 et-last-child et_block_column et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode_passthrough\"><div class=\"et_pb_text_28 et_pb_text et_pb_bg_layout_light et_pb_module et_block_module\"><div class=\"et_pb_text_inner\"><p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><strong>Battery life<\/strong><strong> (movie playback)<\/strong>*<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><ul class=\"et_pb_counters_4 et_pb_counters et-waypoint et_pb_bg_layout_light et_pb_module et_block_module\"><li class=\"et_pb_counter_12 et_pb_counter\"><span class=\"et_pb_counter_title\">iPhone 13 Pro - Time = 19hr 2mins<\/span><span class=\"et_pb_counter_container\"><span class=\"et_pb_counter_amount\" data-width=\"100%\"><span class=\"et_pb_counter_amount_number\"><\/span><\/span><span class=\"et_pb_counter_amount overlay\" data-width=\"100%\"><span class=\"et_pb_counter_amount_number\"><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/li><li class=\"et_pb_counter_13 et_pb_counter\"><span class=\"et_pb_counter_title\">iPhone 11 - Time = 14hrs 45mins<\/span><span class=\"et_pb_counter_container\"><span class=\"et_pb_counter_amount\" data-width=\"77.6%\"><span class=\"et_pb_counter_amount_number\"><\/span><\/span><span class=\"et_pb_counter_amount overlay\" data-width=\"77.6%\"><span class=\"et_pb_counter_amount_number\"><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/li><li class=\"et_pb_counter_14 et_pb_counter\"><span class=\"et_pb_counter_title\">iPhone 8 Plus - Time = 9hrs 47mins<\/span><span class=\"et_pb_counter_container\"><span class=\"et_pb_counter_amount\" data-width=\"50%\"><span class=\"et_pb_counter_amount_number\"><\/span><\/span><span class=\"et_pb_counter_amount overlay\" data-width=\"50%\"><span class=\"et_pb_counter_amount_number\"><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/li><\/ul><div class=\"et_pb_text_29 et_pb_text et_pb_bg_layout_light et_pb_module et_block_module\"><div class=\"et_pb_text_inner\"><p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><strong>Charge Time (0-80%)<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><ul class=\"et_pb_counters_5 et_pb_counters et-waypoint et_pb_bg_layout_light et_pb_module et_block_module\"><li class=\"et_pb_counter_15 et_pb_counter\"><span class=\"et_pb_counter_title\">iPhone 13 Pro - Time = 53mins<\/span><span class=\"et_pb_counter_container\"><span class=\"et_pb_counter_amount\" data-width=\"100%\"><span class=\"et_pb_counter_amount_number\"><\/span><\/span><span class=\"et_pb_counter_amount overlay\" data-width=\"100%\"><span class=\"et_pb_counter_amount_number\"><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/li><li class=\"et_pb_counter_16 et_pb_counter\"><span class=\"et_pb_counter_title\">iPhone 11 - Time = 55mins<\/span><span class=\"et_pb_counter_container\"><span class=\"et_pb_counter_amount\" data-width=\"96.4%\"><span class=\"et_pb_counter_amount_number\"><\/span><\/span><span class=\"et_pb_counter_amount overlay\" data-width=\"96.4%\"><span class=\"et_pb_counter_amount_number\"><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/li><li class=\"et_pb_counter_17 et_pb_counter\"><span class=\"et_pb_counter_title\">iPhone 8 Plus - Time = 56mins<\/span><span class=\"et_pb_counter_container\"><span class=\"et_pb_counter_amount\" data-width=\"94.6%\"><span class=\"et_pb_counter_amount_number\"><\/span><\/span><span class=\"et_pb_counter_amount overlay\" data-width=\"94.6%\"><span class=\"et_pb_counter_amount_number\"><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/li><\/ul><div class=\"et_pb_text_30 et_pb_text et_pb_bg_layout_light et_pb_module et_block_module\"><div class=\"et_pb_text_inner\"><p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">*Battery life test involves looping the playback of an HD movie from fully charged until the phone shuts down.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"et_pb_section_6 et_pb_section et_section_regular et_block_section\"><div class=\"et_pb_row_16 et_pb_row et_block_row\" id=\"options\"><div class=\"et_pb_column_26 et_pb_column et_pb_column_4_4 et-last-child et_block_column et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode_passthrough\"><div class=\"et_pb_text_31 et_pb_text et_pb_bg_layout_light et_pb_module et_block_module\"><div class=\"et_pb_text_inner\"><h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>iPhone 8 Plus - options and additional features<\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"et_pb_row_17 et_pb_row et_block_row\"><div class=\"et_pb_column_27 et_pb_column et_pb_column_4_4 et-last-child et_block_column et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode_passthrough\"><div class=\"et_pb_text_32 et_pb_text et_pb_bg_layout_light et_pb_module et_block_module\"><div class=\"et_pb_text_inner\"><p style=\"font-weight:100;\">The iPhone 8 Plus came with 64GB, 128GB or 256GB of storage - an upgrade from the 32GB given to the entry-level iPhone 7.
