iPhone 8 Plus: Is it Worth Buying After the First Impression?
After the “iPhone First of all, one of the main reasons is that the size of the X is small and I have wanted to switch to a big screen iPhone for a long time. The small price of X was also a factor in this. Of course, even though rumors are starting to spread about the “iPhone
Of course, when you first look at this phone, it is not much different from the 7 Plus. Some even think that its name should be 7S Plus, and they are not wrong.
Camera: The Megapixel of the rear and front cameras are exactly the same as the 7 Plus, but there is definitely a difference in image quality. Both 7 and 8 have 2 megapixel resolution and f/1.8 – f/2.8 aperture values, but the new image signal processor in the Apple A11 chip makes the image much higher quality. This processor also enables clearer shooting in low-light areas and enables high-resolution video recording.
This photo you see below was taken with an iPhone 7.
This photo was taken with 8 plus.
Although there may not be much difference at first glance, you can understand by looking a little more carefully that the light shines less and the image is of better quality in the photo taken with the 8 plus.
The photo you see below was taken with the iPhone 8 Plus from the same angle. If you look carefully at the areas where light is reflected, including the lamp itself, you will easily notice the high resolution and focusing of the object.

Portrait Lightning: I haven't been able to take a pleasant shot yet, but let me try to explain it a little with the sample image below. Thanks to the new A11 chip used in the iPhone 8, you can manipulate the photos in detail by measuring the depth. You can manipulate the light of the object or person and darken the background as you wish.
I should also say that if I were a 7 Plus user, I would definitely not need to upgrade to 8 Plus. I don't know if you want to always have the new phone, but if we leave out the “X”, if we use a model older than 7 (6S, 6, SE, 5S, 4), “X” will not come to me, sir, I am crazy about the Home button, If you think that without that button, the iPhone is missing something, you can definitely switch to the 8 Plus with peace of mind. Of course, those who think that these small differences are not important to me can also choose the iPhone 7 or 7 Plus as they are a cheaper option.
Battery: As someone who depends on a charger when using an iPhone 6, I am very happy that I do not have such a problem with this phone. When I leave the house in the morning with a full charge, I can even return home with a 70% charge if I haven't taken care of it much during the day. In the official statement, it is said that it has a lifespan of up to 13 hours even with use. I want to buy one of the wireless charging units like the example above, but I haven't needed it yet. Apple does not produce these wireless chargers but has had technology companies such as Belkin, which it is close to, produce these wireless chargers and offers them for sale for approximately 300 TL. I think it could be a logical alternative for the bedside.
Note: Since it's new, I couldn't do a lot of detailed shooting and review, but as the day goes by, I'll take more active shots and review and update this place from time to time 🙂
