iPhone 8 Review

Everybody loves writing reviews of the newest iPhones and raving on about how they’re the best thing ever—but are they really the best value for you? I think the iPhone 8 begs to differ. 

What's cheaper than a new iPhone 8? A used or refurbished iPhone 8. But what kind of iPhone 8 is even cheaper than that? Answer to this riddle is on the bottom of this page :)

When the iPhone 8 was released in September 2017, there wasn’t that much excitement around it. It looked almost the same as the iPhone 7 that was released a year before, and diehard Apple fans were eagerly waiting for the iPhone X, which was released a few months later in November of that year. 

But now, the refurbished iPhone 8 is back with an almost-vintage vengeance.

If I like vintage stuff, am I officially a hipster? Or are there other qualifications that are required for that title? Does anybody here have the answer?

For a couple of years now, many analysts have been saying that we have reached “Peak iPhone.” This essentially means that everybody who wants an iPhone has one already, and no big revolutions have occurred to incentivize people to buy newer models en masse. The iPhone X was created to change the slowing smartphone market, but it had little impact. Orders soared when the iPhone X was released in Fall 2017, but in early 2018 the iPhone 8 actually overtook the iPhone X in sales figures. What does this mean?

The refurbished iPhone 8 is a great phone, but do you know what's even better? Custard pudding. Wow, I think it's time to take my lunch break. Anyways, back to the article!

The iPhone 8 didn’t innovate much over the models before it, but the figures show us that it didn’t need to. While the iPhone X was discontinued less than a year after it was released, the iPhone 8 is still selling and going strong well into 2020. And Apple is still producing it (although it will probably be phased out at sometime in late 2020). Point is, it’s a great iPhone, and the fact Apple has been selling it for so many years proves this.

The iPhone 8 wasn’t revolutionary, not in the slightest way. One of the only new features it introduced that distinguished it from previous iPhones was wireless charging (which many people don’t use anyways)—but it honestly doesn’t matter. Why? Because maybe the iPhone was already perfect before the iPhone 8 was introduced.
