Except for the larger display and a dual primary setup, there isn’t any difference between the Apple iPhone 8 and 8+. The 8+ is for those who like a bigger display on a smartphone. Let us now take a look at what the Apple iPhone 8+ has to offer in detail. First, its design and build.
Design and build
Apple surely went all out with the design of the iPhone 8 plus It does look a lot like the Apple iPhone 7 Plus though. With the same signature look of a typical iPhone except for the few additions like the introduction of a dual primary camera on the top left corner of the iPhone 8 plus Then Apple’s logo still sits on the upper middle back and an iPhone branding at the bottom. It has a glossy full metal body build that gives it this premium beautiful finish and looks. The face of the iPhone 8 Plus is a 5.5-inch display panel with a touchpad and a pressure-sensitive home button that doubles as a fingerprint scanner as well. It measures 158.4 x 78.1 x 7.5 mm and weighs about 202 grams. iPhone 8+ is a solid phone with a great feel on the hands and beautiful looks as well. It is an iPhone that is IP67 certified- water and dustproof up to 1 meter and 30 minutes. Apple has done a great job with the iPhone 8 plus Kudos.
Display and camera
Its 5.5 inches display is an LED backlight IPS LCD capacitive touch screen that supports 16 M colors and multi-touch. It comes with a 1080 x 1920 pixels (401 PPI pixel density) resolution and has a 68% screen-to-body ratio. The display is also protected with an ion strengthened glass, oleophobic coating. It has a wide color gamut display, supports a 3D touch display (and home button), and is a true tone display. The display on the Apple iPhone 8 is very impressive. It is one I personally have no grievances with whatsoever. With good colors and just about the right brightness. It is among the top IPS LCD displays on the market today (2017).
Camera

The dual primary camera is/are a 12MP shooter with phase detection autofocus, 2x optical zoom, optical image stabilization, and a quad-LED flash. It has these features geo-tagging, simultaneous 4K video recording and 8MP image recording, touch focus, face/smile detection, and HDR (photo/panorama). The selfie camera is a 7MP shooter with face detection, HDR, and panorama. Selfies are great here and so are the main camera photos. Video recording stands at 2160p@24/30/60fps, 1080p@30/60/120/240fps.
