Review: Iphone 8
The device that I discussed at that time is one of the daily drivers that I have used for the past two years; this type of Smartphone is the iPhone 8 Series, which was released by Apple in September 2017 as the successor to the previous generation, namely the iPhone 7 Series using the latest technology. And features that catch the attention of Gadget lovers from Apple. For users who like Smartphones that are not too large, it will be very comfortable to use this iPhone 8 because its 4.7-inch size is very suitable for use with one hand. In addition, the price of this Smartphone in 2022 is quite affordable for users who want to use Apple devices with a minimal budget.
This iPhone 8 is built with an Apple Chipset, the A11 Bionic, and an operating system that has already been upgraded with sophisticated technological input that makes it easier for users to use this device. Then the True Tone feature introduced by Apple makes the screen on this iPhone can change color according to the surrounding lighting, this technology is not owned by the previous generation iPhone.
Even though it was released five years ago, the performance of this iPhone 8 did not lag behind its successor, I bought this smartphone at the end of 2020 and for almost two years I have been using it without any serious problems or problems that I experienced except in the battery life which is far lagging behind Android Smartphones at the same price.
