The iPhone 8 starts at $700, while the larger iPhone 8 Plusstarts at $800.
The iPhone X, on the other hvà, starts at $1,000.
Simply, you can save at least $200 by going with an iPhone 8, which, keep in mind, is still a brand-new phone from Apple, with most of the same features as the iPhone X.
Apple
From a functional standpoint, the iPhone 8 và the 8 Plus are identical khổng lồ the iPhone X.
Each phone is powered by Apple"s new A11 Bionic chip, a neural engine, and the M11 motion coprocessor. The only difference is how the phones use these features: The iPhone X uses the A11 chip and neural engine for its new face-detection system, Face ID, which the iPhone 8 does not have sầu.
And all are also running iOS 11, which means you"re getting the same great apps và ecosystem in the iPhone 8 as the iPhone X.

Touch ID, which is used to lớn unloông xã the device and pay for goods via Apple Pay, is a known, proven entity. I own an iPhone X, và Face ID works well mostof the time — but as my colleague Tony points out, Face ID is less reliable than Touch ID, & not as fast.
Face ID is very good. Apple says it"s less prone to lớn being tricked than cảm biến ID, và can work in most situations where you think it wouldn"t: in the dark, if you add hats or glasses, or if you make actual changes khổng lồ your face.Still, Touch ID is comfortable khổng lồ use, works almost instantaneously, & doesn"t require you physically look at the phone.
Face ID has a ton of potential, but cảm ứng ID is still the gold standard.
4. The iPhone 8 and the 8 Plus support fast charging and wireless charging for the first time — just lượt thích the iPhone X.

The downside, unfortunately, is that you"ll have to lớn buy extra accessories if youuse either new charging method with any of these new iPhones. Apple offers several Qi wireless-charging pads (its own AirPower pad won"t be out until later this year), and you"ll need to buy $25 khổng lồ $75 worth of equipment(a Lightning-to- USB-C cable và a USB-C nguồn Delivery-compatible charger, specifically)if you want to lớn use fast charging for your iPhone 8, 8 Plus, or iPhone X.
Again, this isonemore expense to consider when thinking about the iPhone 8 versus the iPhone X, which starts at $1,000.

If you care at all about photography, the rear cameras on the iPhone 8 Plus and the iPhone X are nearly identical. The iPhone 8 is a great shooter, but the larger iPhone 8 Plusadds a second telephoto lens so you can zoom in without losing image chất lượng.
The only difference is that the iPhone X has a few "exclusive" software features: Portrait Mode for the front-facing camera (in addition lớn the back); Portrait Lighting, which lets you remove sầu backgrounds in your selfies for a dramatic effect; và Animoji, which lets you skết thúc animated emojis lớn your friends that mimic your facial expressions & even speak using your voice. But as someone who owns an iPhone X, I"d argue none of those features are worth the price difference between the iPhone 8 và iPhone X.
Apple
The TrueDepth camera system is the lone interruption on the iPhone X"s beautiful edge-to-edge display. I don"t mind the notch too much on my own iPhone X, but I still notice it all the time.
This comes into lớn play with everything: If you"re trying a new phone wallpaper, or watching a đoạn Clip, you always need to take the notch into account. Also, many apps still have yet to lớn be optimized for the chất lượng shape and layout of the iPhone X, which means for now, apps will look as if you"re running them on an iPhone 7 or iPhone 8, leaving most of the screen"s real estate unused.
8. If you're upgrading from an iPhone 7 or 7 Plus, your old cases will fit the iPhone 8 — but not the iPhone X.
Hollis Johnson/Business Insider
The iPhone 8 & the 8 Plus" dimensions are nearly identical lớn their predecessors, the iPhone 7 and 7 Plus. The new phones are a bit heavier, and there are slight differences in their height, length, and depth, but all the differences are less than a millimeter each, which means your old iPhone 7 cases will still fit.
The iPhone X"sdimensions are completely different from those of past iPhones, so your old cases won"t work with this phone — one more expense lớn consider on top of the phone"s price.
Apple
The iPhone Xhas stunning battery life. According lớn most benchmarks và tests, the iPhone X gets an average of 12-13 hours of battery life, which is really, really good.
Still, the iPhone 8 và 8 Plushave superior battery life compared khổng lồ the iPhone X. Expect 13-14 hours of battery life for the iPhone 8, và 14-15 hours (or more) of battery life on the larger iPhone 8 Plus. It"s one of the few phones you can carry around & be confident it"s going to last you all day.
