So here for the people who don’t it’s don’t have here the link ruclips.net/video/5LWI8AG8Oc0/видео.html Like I said in 4mins of the video he teach u how to add an act like a home screen y’all need to learn about the iPhone before buying anyways
Face ID is so good tho? I guess I kinda get why you wanna stay with the home button but it’s not coming back might as well switch, Face ID is so fast and secure. Love and the the gesture that replaces the home button is so much faster and responsive you easily adapt to it.
“If you happen to loose your phone in the ocean for half an hr, you have a better chance of surviving on the Xs max” if it’s lost in the ocean, it’s gone bro..it’s gone...
i notice that as well. youtubers show off thin useless cases and think that normal people have 600 sitting around to fix our 1000 dollar plus phone when it breaks. most people use otterboxes or more bulkier cases we dont give a shit about grip and thinness
I like Apple a lot but since the X Design im also not convinced anymore. I just dont like the Notch and the prices as there are no key improvements for me. Just because of the camera im not buying a 1000+ EUR phone.
seriously, i was happy with my iphone 6 until i drunkenly submerged it in a pool last last summer but in my defense i had a waterproof case that had worked before
I am still using a 6s Plus. Works great, is plenty fast, iOS 12 sped it up some. Have no issues. I’ll wait until next fall and see what Apple comes out with then before upgrading.

Same.. Reason why I like my 8 Plus and why !!! I MYSELF !!!! Like it better - Touch ID is faster and don’t need to worry about it being dark cuz face recognition sucks like that - Animoji’s are used like once or twice tf is the point - the front facing camera on X is proven to suck ass ( wtf is up with the zooming it’s way too zoomed to my face ) - No home button on the X - No reachability - The bar on top - THE IPHONE 8 PLUS is proven to have a higher resolution than the X - Videos on RUclips / Netflix are cropped on the X due to the round screen it’s just skinnier wtf - It’s proven the 8 plus battery lasts a bit longer than the X - The X just looks weird asf to ME - The flash on the X is way too close to the camera creating red eye / white eye problems in picture - The PWN creates the screen to flicker on the iPhone X - X is too tall and skinny which makes it hard to type on the keyboard with one hand or for big handed people - Screen time is longer on the 8 Plus - Reaching the control center is a joke why do I have to reach all the way on the top right ???? I use my control center a lot and the X makes it difficult - Screenshot function on the X is a disaster to a lot of people taking accidental screen shots at least 15x a day
penile 1 it’s a phone that came out because people wanted small phones in 2016 but they are SUPER cheap and will get maybe two - three more years of support. You can buy one directly from a carrier or Best Buy
I’ve had the eight plus for over a year now and it’s yet to slow down so I’ll have this phone for another year or two until Apple actually does something innovative
Virginia VanSickle no one can steal your phone with a fingerprint scanner actually everyone’s thumb is unique no ones thumb is the same, everyone in the world has different thumb prints so go google your facts before jumping to conclusions.
This video was very misleading... You title made it as if you ditched the IPHONE XS for good... You didn't... With that being said... YOU just sold me on the 8+
Judi Christopher i saw ur comment in another video. u said something about july something being ur birthday so u need an iphone. i think it was and iphone xr video.
Because the performance of the devices are almost identical? The chips of the new phones are barely faster than last year's model. The benchmarks show it as well, the screen on the new phones looks great and all but to be honest there really is not a compelling reason to upgrade if you just purchased an iPhone 8 last year.
Matthew Lemmers Thats just beause its an "s" model. Next years Flagship will probably have way higher scores, and way better Power efficiency, even tho it will be still opening apps at the same speed, as the ones that came out 3 years ago. But App Opening times are useless anyways, cuz ur most likely not gonna spend to long for an App to open on an newer Device, and its way more important (for me atleast) that the App runs smoothly, scrolling is smooth etc.
The Gpu is bonkers though. And in is a bit faster the bionic chip. And as I Noticed the 4g/wireless is insane on the XS max compared to the iPhone 8 plus. Its not even a competition
Adam Almqvist Well, yeah. But in D2D its not noticeable i guess, since im only doing Instagram/Snapchat... if i was downloading heavy stuff with mobile internet it would be moticeable tho
Yup it's not worth it. Not much difference in Antutu benchmark The price just doesn't justify the change. Stick with your iPhone X don't buy into Apple's scam There's a reason Apple stopped iphone X production
Hallgeir Hansen that’s what I laughed at too. Lol...it’s so ridiculous how the jet black 7 plus was the most in demand and hardest to get a hold of, yet all of a sudden it’s obsolete? Get out of here. Just cause they introduced a new phone doesn’t take away from how good of a phone and design it still is.
I’m sticking to my iphone 8+ space grey for the moment, 1st the color is much better than the white or rose gold, 2nd it’s 256GB on ios 12.1 and it’s super damn fast, 3rd the SMax is having charging issues, so until that is fixed, cheers.
That doesn’t happen in iOS 12.1 I can confirm. It used to happens to me a lot in iOS 12 but now it doesn’t in beta and you can also just turn on charging accessory in the settings. And they have a space grey xs max. I have the 256 space grey
Another issue is the beauty gate, the XS does this weird thing to portrait images where it smoothens the image and also change the skin color a bit, it doesnt look normal. Def. not something I want, and it cant be turned off. Im waiting till next year and see what they come up with, and keeping my 8 plus for now, it's still a great phone.
I just bought a Max for my wife. I didn't want to fork over the money for two or the smaller X phone so settled for the relatively cheap 8 plus for myself. I was considering waiting for the XR but I think I would miss Touch ID.
Actually, the screen ends just beneath the notch. When you hold it horizontally. The notch area turns black and blends in becoming a non issue. It's really not as much of an issue as one would think.
Definitely subscribing. I liked your analysis. No stupid comments or swearing. Just good logical comments that I could agree with. Btw just upgraded my iPhone 6 Plus to an 8 plus and I love it. Somehow spending $1000 plus for a phone seems immoral to me. I’ll wait once the price drops after the release of 11
I thought I’d need a home button till I started using the Max properly, now I just see it as wasted space, the notch makes no difference when your actually playing games or watching stuff, people are just chatting shit for no reason personally.
Chrono it’s also about how this extra real estate on the XS Max is utilised. A lot of it is just empty on many apps. When watching videos and movies (16:9), the picture is the same size on both phones (unless you blow it up full screen on the XS Max to see less content and the notch).
It's a pure waste of money buying the iPhone 10 11 12 14 Etc every 24 months,you're going to be getting into a new phone anyway,so buying the"flagship phone"is totally pointless anymore.You're going to take all the video that you recorded and put it on your camera or your computer anyway,so it doesn't really make any difference,the iPhone 8 plus is probably the best bang-for-the-buck overall,because you can't keep the phone,after a couple iOS upgrades,the phone is pretty much done for.(junk)
Lucas Wito idk about ur situation but yeah you pay $549 right off the bat, but you prolly have to pay a certain amount every month for the next 2 years. in addition to that, getting a good deal like that requires you to be paying bare money for data. in canada, to get a xs around the 500-600 mark, you have to be paying $100 a month for phone bills. thats a fucking joke styll. add that number up and you'd wish you paid the normal price of the phone straight up. you gotta look long term
Clythicals yea I paid all of it up front. And no additional charges per month I asked. Just a nice deal from att from being with them for certain amount of years. Also probably cause I had the 6 before
I totally agree with you about touchid vs faceid. I really hope in the future iphones will have both the unlocking systems working together, so we can continue enjoy faceid for conveniently filling log in etc and touchid for the rest. Sensor beneath the screen, of course.
I bought mine recently, coming from a 5s it was a massive upgrade and it’s cheaper than the XS or XR. I love mine and probably will keep it for like 5 more years cause money is scarce hahaha. This is so sad, Alexa play despacito.
@@dirty313glove5 There's a possibility Apple will support it until at least 2021. The 5s originally released in 2013 and was supported until earlier this year (6 years in total with 1 more year of support than its immediate predecessor the 5).
First big purchase at 16 , was buying an iPhone 8 Plus when it first came out. Bought for $799 plus taxes and fees. Never will I buy another iPhone until this one won’t turn on. Phones are getting crazy expensive...
idk, i came from a 6 so any upgrade would’ve been monumentally better but, i mean with a free upgrade and financing, choosing the Xs was a no brainer at only $38 a month. And after 2 weeks of ownership, i can confidently say i have no regrets. I even compared it to my dads 8 plus and yea, other than the minor upgrades to the resolution, screen size, camera, speed, battery, etc. there isnt much of a difference, but then again thats what youre paying for so idk, comes down to what your prefer
Kadan I had both and really not that big of a deal. You can go head and pay thousands of dollars for a phone that looks just like the IPhone X. It’s really not that big of a deal someone stand next to you with a iPhone X and you have the iPhone X’s is not going to tel the difference
I’ve gone the other way and bitterly regret getting the XS Max. Face ID is inconsistent, the notch is intrusive and irritating and, worst of all, the Home Indicator is in my face all the time. It’s always there, burning away at the screen. There’s no way to turn it off other than a convoluted Guided Access mode. When playing games like Super Hexagon it reappears whenever the screen is touched.
Interesting comparison. I’m sticking with my 8 plus for now but will transition to the Xs max when they catchup with production maybe start offering some incentives. The Xs are crazy expensive. You really have to think about upgrades nowadays.
I guess I’m upgrading to the 8 plus because I thought the Xs literally gave you a full on screen when watching things but when he said that you were going to miss on certain things I was like ahhh nvm I’m going for the 8 plus
Jennifer Stewart no it wasn’t...it depends on your personal preference...I did the same thing when the X came out...bought it, didn’t like it, bought the 8+, and now I’m happy
gcforreal xs max has a wider and taller display. Also better quality, oled vs lcd no question which one is better. You’d got to be a serious dumb ass to prefer the 8 plus over the xs max
I have the 6+ and was going to get a new one this year but I’m not spending 1k on a phone. I’ll just old off another year and see what happens with the prices then.
hey man i just had a 6 plus and bought an xs... i have "download and keep originals" selected under icloud photos but all of my videos still require wifi to view... any idea how to actually get my photos and videos onto this phone? The entire reason i bought a 512gb phone was to have my shit on the phone.
XXtheJUMPoffXX if you don’t mind it, stick with it but if you want a good upgrade keep your eye out on the XR. I seen it in person and I must say that it is a huge upgrade to the 6,7 and 8(non plus size)
@@terrencetroope Thank you very much I want to know if the iPhone X is good or iPhone 8 Plus is good I know that because the model which does not come is the best Like the iPhone XS ya iPhone Xs max now
I’m struggling to find value in the new phones since my black 7 Plus runs flawless. The cameras are definitely better but daily speed opening apps is unnoticeable to negligible at best. The only thing that reminds me I’m not using the latest iPhone is the design. Otherwise, it feels like a new phone still. Testament to how good the 7 Plus is.
Just got the iPhone X and up graded from the 7 plus and I love my X. I don’t miss the the home bottom or Touch ID. The Face ID is surprisingly fast and convenient. Got it for 700 since they don’t make any more. Got apple care and battery health is 100%. Love the phone will keep for the next few years .
David Major i have iPhone 6 and my Xs is on the way. I was gonna go with XS Max but I didn’t want a huge a phone. I can’t be sneaky at work with the big one. But I’m excited cause it’s been 3 years since I’ve upgraded. I went from 5c to 6, so from 6 to XS is exciting ! Glad to see it’s the best you’ve used.
Iphone 8+ is so slippery! Puts on case. Iphone 8+ is no longer slippery! Also, if you don't want the notch covering part of a video, when you pinch down, the viewable area on the XS Max is the exact same size as the 8+. Let me repeat that for those in the slow class: The viewable area when pinched is THE EXACT SAME SIZE. So your big beautiful screen either gets partly blocked by the Notch Ness Monster, or you're back to 8+ size.
Your post is great..on many levels. Funny..and addressing an exact point (screen size for video) I've been pondering. Data being cropped out of a video could *never* be OK. Also....who shleps around a $1000 phone without a case? You can get a perfectly acceptable one for 20 bucks.
The common misconception is that you need to “wait” for Face ID to unlock first, but you can actually just swipe up immediately and it will simultaneously unlock, and if you have “Attention Aware” turned off, you don’t even need to be looking at the screen, and without that turned on it is still more secure than Touch ID.
Armin Math City how is it more secure then your finger print? It’s pretty much the same level of security right? No one has the same finger print as someone else
You are right, but in that scenario you're assuming that TouchID can tell any two fingerprints apart. I think Apple mentioned in their iPhone X keynote that this is not the case, but the chances of another finger working on your phone are 1:10000. FaceID should be more secure, at 1:1000000.
Just bought the XS and have the 8 plus. Love the 8 plus, don't like the notch on the XS. Still, I changed up because I needed more storage and the XS screen is so much better. It is Feb 2022 and the XS was US$320 on Verizon online. Great review thanks! Just what I needed to know. I never lock my phone. Please let me know your experience if you think it is worth it. I live in a safe rural area.
David Varga yeah you have to turn that off. I come from the same Samsung note 8 and when I got the iPhone 8 Plus I was gonna return it because of that till I figured out I can turn it off. Over all it’s a good phone.
And realize that whatever colors were really on that display, they may have become distorted by the camera recording it and then finally you are looking at those colors as represented by your own display. You will never see the colors here on youtube as you would see them live with your own eyes.
Hi i have a question . I am between iphone 8 plus and iphone x . But iphone x it is 150-180$ above than iphone 8 plus .i listen the display from iphone 8 plus it has big difference than iphone x display. Do you agree? Would you recommend i get the iphone 8 plus ( if you can tell me youe experience about iphone 8 plus display) Tannk you
What’s the point of the bigger screen if the notch cuts out a piece of the video and the full screen option crops out part of the video on the top and bottom as well? You basically end up with the exact same size video as the iPhone 6-8+

I don’t know why all youtubers act as if people don’t use cases. Literally +90% of people use cases. Due to that I personally don’t care about grip
right?
i notice that as well. youtubers show off thin useless cases and think that normal people have 600 sitting around to fix our 1000 dollar plus phone when it breaks. most people use otterboxes or more bulkier cases we dont give a shit about grip and thinness
I actually love the thin feeling of iPhones. I purposefully buy thinner cases to feel it. Pop sockets exist for a reason
Because youtubers have no idea of the value of phones to regular Joe Schmo consumers. A lot of them also act like everyone upgrades annually.
I know more people that don't use a case than people who do. Way more actually.
Not a single thing you said made that iPhone Xs Max worth the extra 500-900$.
Because its not worth

When you hold it horizontally. The notch area turns black and blends in becoming a non issue. It's really not as much of an issue as one would think.
I meant to add, on my Xs the screen area is actually bigger than my previous 8+.
Watching this on a iPhone 8 Plus 😂

Definitely subscribing. I liked your analysis. No stupid comments or swearing. Just good logical comments that I could agree with. Btw just upgraded my iPhone 6 Plus to an 8 plus and I love it. Somehow spending $1000 plus for a phone seems immoral to me. I’ll wait once the price drops after the release of 11
did you get the 11?
I'm gonna get the 8 plus. I need the homebutton and I'd rather have a bigger phone than bigger screen
Pearl the rebel it’s the same size
Why do you need the home button? And the Max is the same size as the 8 plus and the screen is bigger. You’re getting more screen with the same size.
I thought I’d need a home button till I started using the Max properly, now I just see it as wasted space, the notch makes no difference when your actually playing games or watching stuff, people are just chatting shit for no reason personally.
Chrono it’s also about how this extra real estate on the XS Max is utilised. A lot of it is just empty on many apps. When watching videos and movies (16:9), the picture is the same size on both phones (unless you blow it up full screen on the XS Max to see less content and the notch).
They the same size. Just a bigger screen
I came from a 7 plus to Xs max, have had no reachability issues. Easier to handle too
It's a pure waste of money buying the iPhone 10 11 12 14 Etc every 24 months,you're going to be getting into a new phone anyway,so buying the"flagship phone"is totally pointless anymore.You're going to take all the video that you recorded and put it on your camera or your computer anyway,so it doesn't really make any difference,the iPhone 8 plus is probably the best bang-for-the-buck overall,because you can't keep the phone,after a couple iOS upgrades,the phone is pretty much done for.(junk)
Why don't u turning off the True Tone, the 8 plus screen just so so so weird yellow
this suddenly became a comparison video between the two phones.
Love my iPhone 6s Plus with headphone jack touchid & IOS 12. Won’t upgrade until September 2019. I am good!!
And I'm good with my SE (headphone jack, touchid & IOS12 as well). Enjoy your 6s!
Neno Jlr My husband would agree as well. He loves his 6s+! I don't think he will ever upgrade. 🙂
Smart. The X series are way overpriced and overhyped. Not worth the upgrade.
Agreed I love my 6s plus no need to upgrade
8 plus is still lit. Maybe i'll wait for next year's iphone.
Mark De Guzman same i really want the price to go down
New iPhone 8 Plus for $699
how i pay damn near 1300 for mine lol
Or a new 7 Plus 128GB for $669
Lmao I got my XS for 549 from att special
Lucas Wito idk about ur situation but yeah you pay $549 right off the bat, but you prolly have to pay a certain amount every month for the next 2 years. in addition to that, getting a good deal like that requires you to be paying bare money for data.
in canada, to get a xs around the 500-600 mark, you have to be paying $100 a month for phone bills. thats a fucking joke styll. add that number up and you'd wish you paid the normal price of the phone straight up. you gotta look long term
Clythicals yea I paid all of it up front. And no additional charges per month I asked. Just a nice deal from att from being with them for certain amount of years. Also probably cause I had the 6 before
Kinda crazy how having to move your hand a little to use Touch ID is an inconvenience to some people.
Honestly, I couldn’t even consider the XS. I don’t like the fact that it’s taller, and narrower. I went with the 8SPlus.
Adriana Noelle
8s plus not exist
Where did you bought it?
Just curious...
✌️✌️✌️

The 8+ has a 1080p screen with the same aspect ratio most videos are produced with. Plus it has Touch ID and a great camera. I’m very happy.
interesting... all these models just do iPhone things... nothing different
dewayne thomas you didn’t think of that comment on your own. You stole that from the “painfully honest tech” channel
Adding something taken from that smart guy is good though
They’re not the same. The Max is “Amazing,” where the plus is just.....well....a plus.
dewayne thomas what android phones do differently one from another? Yes , same shit .
josh3326 they are literally the same
iPhone 8 Plus brand new from Apple with 64GB costs $699 here in the US. That’s $400 less than the XS Max.
I did not talk about i phone 8 plus less then i phne xs
I just bought the iPhone plus 256GB for 850.00. I still think it’s better than the X.
JSantana319 I have the 6s. I so want the xs max, but I’m really thinking about just getting the iPhone 8 Plus and get the Apple Watch
@@ericachristopher5483 great choices. Instead of paying $1200 for the Max you pay less for the 8 Plus and watch combined if I'm correct.
Daniel R. Mendez I’m still using my 6s 😂
I totally agree with you about touchid vs faceid. I really hope in the future iphones will have both the unlocking systems working together, so we can continue enjoy faceid for conveniently filling log in etc and touchid for the rest. Sensor beneath the screen, of course.
Do you think it still worth it to buy iphone 8 plus nowadays?
Yep , been have mines for 4 months it’s amazing ! Coming from android this was my first iPhone
I bought mine recently, coming from a 5s it was a massive upgrade and it’s cheaper than the XS or XR. I love mine and probably will keep it for like 5 more years cause money is scarce hahaha. This is so sad, Alexa play despacito.
Christiana Alyanna Matira
It depends on your budget.
Christiana Alyanna Matira It's totally worth it!
I just bought an 8 plus sealed new in box for $390. I’m soooo happy❤️
But When It Asks For ur To Password
You Gotta Go All The Way Down And Press the Home Button
you are acting like you have to go down a flight of stairs to get it
Should I buy an 8+ and then wait for the 2020 iPhones?
same here.. help us..
Manzo I’m going to get a iPhone 8 Plus soon, new iPhones leaked photos look ugly
I'm using my 6s plus until apple stops supporting it in 2020 then I'll upgrade
@@dirty313glove5 There's a possibility Apple will support it until at least 2021. The 5s originally released in 2013 and was supported until earlier this year (6 years in total with 1 more year of support than its immediate predecessor the 5).
Jack H ok cool 👍🏾 I gave my girlfriend the 6s plus and got me a 8 plus
Yep. My 8+ has everything I need. Thanks
First big purchase at 16 , was buying an iPhone 8 Plus when it first came out. Bought for $799 plus taxes and fees. Never will I buy another iPhone until this one won’t turn on. Phones are getting crazy expensive...
In an odd way I hate the stereo speakers because I used to put my finger over the speakers if something was too loud, but now I can’t
iPhone 8/8plus still the best lol
JoshIsVlogs yes it is
idk, i came from a 6 so any upgrade would’ve been monumentally better but, i mean with a free upgrade and financing, choosing the Xs was a no brainer at only $38 a month. And after 2 weeks of ownership, i can confidently say i have no regrets.
I even compared it to my dads 8 plus and yea, other than the minor upgrades to the resolution, screen size, camera, speed, battery, etc. there isnt much of a difference, but then again thats what youre paying for so idk, comes down to what your prefer
Asap Design 8 and 8 plus the last of the true iPhones
iPhone 8 Plus is no different from IPhone 7plus just a different name. And just like the Xs and X same phone new name.
Kadan I had both and really not that big of a deal. You can go head and pay thousands of dollars for a phone that looks just like the IPhone X. It’s really not that big of a deal someone stand next to you with a iPhone X and you have the iPhone X’s is not going to tel the difference
6:20 it almost feels like the jet black iPhone 7 from way back in the day aka 2017
Stopped watching and disliked at the "for one day" part that was conveniently left out from the title
Touch ID doesn’t work when ur fingers are wet and it’s annoying if you are in a hurry to check some thing on the phone..
I’ve gone the other way and bitterly regret getting the XS Max. Face ID is inconsistent, the notch is intrusive and irritating and, worst of all, the Home Indicator is in my face all the time. It’s always there, burning away at the screen. There’s no way to turn it off other than a convoluted Guided Access mode. When playing games like Super Hexagon it reappears whenever the screen is touched.
You forgot major difference between AMOLED vs LCD display and also resolution......🙄😑
apple uses oled not amoled
@@osksroo3021 I think first you should have done some research on it....simply just go through gsmarena website and you'll get it...lol
olli ma AMOLED is the right term. The AM stands fot active matrix, which most OLED displays use, as well as LCD displays.
Interesting comparison. I’m sticking with my 8 plus for now but will transition to the Xs max when they catchup with production maybe start offering some incentives. The Xs are crazy expensive. You really have to think about upgrades nowadays.
the screen on the 8 plus looks worst compared to the XS MAX
No. Display not bad man
i kinda agree the screen of the XS Max looks more futuristic and elegant
I have the 8 plus...it’s all good
I just upgraded from a 6S Plus to an XS Max, how do you think I feel haha
It really do
I guess I’m upgrading to the 8 plus because I thought the Xs literally gave you a full on screen when watching things but when he said that you were going to miss on certain things I was like ahhh nvm I’m going for the 8 plus
The iPhone XS/Max does not support landscape on the home screen the iPhone 8 Plus does.... the XS has a bigger screen but can’t do full landscape.
Sold my Xs max for 8plus back. The new phones are trash. I’m so over apple
can i ask for what reasons tho? sorry im just trying to get as much info to make my decisions because i can't rlly go back after x
victoria thomas its because of the repair costs and some people prefer the button more than the swipe one
Took back my iPhone XS Max and got an iPhone 7 Plus 128gb. Way happier, I really hate Face ID. I’m waiting till they make on screen Touch ID.
Blokes 444 umm that was a bad idea
Blokes 444 Smart move. Save money & you get the same experience at the end of the day.
Jennifer Stewart no it wasn’t...it depends on your personal preference...I did the same thing when the X came out...bought it, didn’t like it, bought the 8+, and now I’m happy
U should've gotten the 8 plus, that was lowkey a bad idea
Elon Smokes Boof true 😂
I wanted to upgrade to an xs max but I think I’ll go for the 8+
I prefer touch ID. It's quicker, and you can open it before you look at it.
iPhone 8 Plus 256GB was retailed at $849.99 USD before rebates on At&T. After watching all these videos. No regrets!!
im having trouble choosing phones
Amia Chevannes sameeee i have the chance to choose but i think both are good but i just cant buy them both. i need to choose one
Me too
Just get a android
I will get the XS Max after a year.
It's not water proof, it's water resistant there's a difference!
K
Why you didn't do the camera test on the IPHONE 8+?
faith jones Faith you have really beautiful eyes girl ❤️
Thank you Highlighted!
why dont they put a home button on the side of the phone like the on/off power button...
I didn’t even know that I could pinch in my screen to make my videos full until he did it lmao
8 plus is taller and still has a wider screen
Lord Of frog yes but the iPhone X is a way bigger screen
Princess Rylie it’s not way bigger it’s taller that’s it
The aspects ratio matters alot . On paper it sounds way bigger in reality it's not it's just taller by a little
XS Max technically has a wider screen, looks like math ain't ya strong suit.
gcforreal xs max has a wider and taller display. Also better quality, oled vs lcd no question which one is better. You’d got to be a serious dumb ass to prefer the 8 plus over the xs max
I have the 6+ and was going to get a new one this year but I’m not spending 1k on a phone. I’ll just old off another year and see what happens with the prices then.
Austin Harper Get a brand new iPhone 8+ for £699
hey man i just had a 6 plus and bought an xs... i have "download and keep originals" selected under icloud photos but all of my videos still require wifi to view... any idea how to actually get my photos and videos onto this phone? The entire reason i bought a 512gb phone was to have my shit on the phone.
Such an excellent vid. You mention things a lot of people seem to forget to mention. Great presentation as well. Agree 100%
I’m sticking to my 6s
XXtheJUMPoffXX if you don’t mind it, stick with it but if you want a good upgrade keep your eye out on the XR. I seen it in person and I must say that it is a huge upgrade to the 6,7 and 8(non plus size)
@@terrencetroope the XR is a waste of money. Not even 1080P. Still more than the 8 plus
@@iAmMadeOfSoup the 8 doesnt have a 1080p display either
Some random guy the 8plus does tho
XR not better then 8plus???????
May I ask you, dear Which of these two mobile is good But I like the iPhone 8 Plus What is different from these two
sheikh Sadam kohaty in simplest terms the XS Max has a much better screen and camera but your going to definitely pay a premium for it
@@terrencetroope Thank you very much
I want to know if the iPhone X is good or iPhone 8 Plus is good
I know that because the model which does not come is the best
Like the iPhone XS ya iPhone Xs max now
sheikh Sadam kohaty better screen, better camera, better design, faster, more ram and the audio is much better. Forgot ip68 water resistance
@@HalfYallBroke thanks
sheikh Sadam kohaty and also the max has a bigger battery 😇
I’m struggling to find value in the new phones since my black 7 Plus runs flawless. The cameras are definitely better but daily speed opening apps is unnoticeable to negligible at best. The only thing that reminds me I’m not using the latest iPhone is the design. Otherwise, it feels like a new phone still. Testament to how good the 7 Plus is.
Jedi 511 agreed..I’m still using my 7plus red and it operates perfectly!
You make those phones look like iphone 5s in my hands, iphone 8+ is what I have now and its huge. Why does this all sound so wrong😂
Just got the iPhone X and up graded from the 7 plus and I love my X. I don’t miss the the home bottom or Touch ID. The Face ID is surprisingly fast and convenient. Got it for 700 since they don’t make any more. Got apple care and battery health is 100%. Love the phone will keep for the next few years .
For the blurred background, iphone 8 plus can do that too, i know because i have one.
I have an iPhone XS Max. It is, hands down, the best phone I have ever used. The only con is it's price.
David Major i have iPhone 6 and my Xs is on the way. I was gonna go with XS Max but I didn’t want a huge a phone. I can’t be sneaky at work with the big one. But I’m excited cause it’s been 3 years since I’ve upgraded. I went from 5c to 6, so from 6 to XS is exciting ! Glad to see it’s the best you’ve used.
Iphone 8+ is so slippery! Puts on case. Iphone 8+ is no longer slippery!
Also, if you don't want the notch covering part of a video, when you pinch down, the viewable area on the XS Max is the exact same size as the 8+. Let me repeat that for those in the slow class: The viewable area when pinched is THE EXACT SAME SIZE. So your big beautiful screen either gets partly blocked by the Notch Ness Monster, or you're back to 8+ size.
Your post is great..on many levels. Funny..and addressing an exact point (screen size for video) I've been pondering. Data being cropped out of a video could *never* be OK. Also....who shleps around a $1000 phone without a case? You can get a perfectly acceptable one for 20 bucks.
Maybe you explained it BUT why does your iPhone 8 Plus have a Yellow Tint to the screen. ??
My homie iPhone 8 stopped working out of nowhere after a year. My iPhone 10 from last year still goin strong
XS max and iPhone 8 are the same price in Australia lmaoo
8 must cost a lot because there is no way the xs max cost lower but same price as 8
melioDAB wdym they cost the same in Australia
@@cobdog123 i mean it is very expensive
Idk but I have a iphone 6 plus... Is that still good 😊
GrvaityGamingJavari 1.0 i have a 7plus now thx for the feedback brother 😂
The common misconception is that you need to “wait” for Face ID to unlock first, but you can actually just swipe up immediately and it will simultaneously unlock, and if you have “Attention Aware” turned off, you don’t even need to be looking at the screen, and without that turned on it is still more secure than Touch ID.
Armin Math City how is it more secure then your finger print? It’s pretty much the same level of security right? No one has the same finger print as someone else
You are right, but in that scenario you're assuming that TouchID can tell any two fingerprints apart. I think Apple mentioned in their iPhone X keynote that this is not the case, but the chances of another finger working on your phone are 1:10000. FaceID should be more secure, at 1:1000000.
Just bought the XS and have the 8 plus. Love the 8 plus, don't like the notch on the XS. Still, I changed up because I needed more storage and the XS screen is so much better. It is Feb 2022 and the XS was US$320 on Verizon online. Great review thanks! Just what I needed to know. I never lock my phone. Please let me know your experience if you think it is worth it. I live in a safe rural area.
I just bought the iPhone 8 Plus (256 Gigs) new last month from Apple.com, and it cost $849 before tax USD. I wanted the home button. Love it!
iPhone 8 Plus on eBay is about 450
The 8+ display looks so pale. Was True Tone enabled? Because the screen shouldn’t look this bad in real life.
David Varga yeah you have to turn that off. I come from the same Samsung note 8 and when I got the iPhone 8 Plus I was gonna return it because of that till I figured out I can turn it off. Over all it’s a good phone.
And realize that whatever colors were really on that display, they may have become distorted by the camera recording it and then finally you are looking at those colors as represented by your own display. You will never see the colors here on youtube as you would see them live with your own eyes.
i personally think they all look sepia tone-ish so i adjusted my color settings and made it more blue and truer to white
David Varga
The white front isn't helping. It looks really ugly
It looks like he might have night mode enabled on the 8 plus, it gives it an orangish tone
Touch ID is the reason I ain’t moving up.
Hi i have a question . I am between iphone 8 plus and iphone x . But iphone x it is 150-180$ above than iphone 8 plus .i listen the display from iphone 8 plus it has big difference than iphone x display. Do you agree? Would you recommend i get the iphone 8 plus ( if you can tell me youe experience about iphone 8 plus display)
Tannk you
What’s the point of the bigger screen if the notch cuts out a piece of the video and the full screen option crops out part of the video on the top and bottom as well? You basically end up with the exact same size video as the iPhone 6-8+
Full screen doesn't cut anything. It's just letterboxing the sides to show you everything that's in the video.
