Glad to see this bad boy being tested and doing OK considering its age. I wish it could receive support for one more year and get ios 17, I'm not ready to say goodbye to this slab.
I don't think it might be dropped soon as this has the same internals as iPhone X. But the fact is if this gets dropped out of support, so will be the X
@@dv47844 iPhone 6 had 4 years of uptade and iPhone 6s 6 years. And as iPhone 7 received only 5 years iPhone 8 will receive another two years of upgrade as iPhone 6s ie iPhone 8 will receive iOS 18 ie 7 years of uptade.
So glad to see the iPhone 8 Plus on iOS 16 being reviewed. Honestly I have one myself in Gold, and iOS 16 on it at first was kinda laggy, but now it’s pretty much manageable. Only problem is with the haptics, which has gone crazy. But yeah overall it’s pretty much fine. Sad to see this as the last iPhone to be supported
Thank you for an excellent review of the 8 Plus in relation to iOS 16 (beta). I think there are quite a few out there who still have their 8 Plus and appreciate the phone for what it is. For my part, the 8 Plus works really well and I do not feel the need to replace it (yet). The power consumption in your case is very similar to how my old 5S is performing. It can easily lose 20-30% battery capacity in 15-20 minutes, but it works fine even if it gets hot and of course has some delays. I use it mostly without a SIM card and listen to Spotify when I run or go for a walk (it weighs almost nothing).
Very informative video. Thank you for posting. My iPhone 8 Plus will be 5 years old in December. Battery health is 81%. I can usually get through one day on a full charge.But I keep my home and car chargers close by. My only complaint is, when I say, "Hey Siri" instead of the loud, high pitch tone that was on every other iOS, 16 has a low volume, low pitch tone, that I can barely hear. I haven't seen any comments on this anywhere. I guess I'm alone with this issue.
@@Itskfx No longer use it but it’s still in great working order. Even though it’s no longer supported there’s no issues at all. Not a heavy user, no social media. Mostly a lot of audiobooks, music, RUclips and chess. The speakers on the thing are incredible. Almost all the apps I use were working just fine.
Thanks Nick! Great video! I sold my 8 plus right before pandemic and of course I missed the Touch ID, and I still miss it, Apple brought this button to perfection. On the other hand gestures are perfect too (without mask😀), so I guess if I get back the 8 plus back I would miss gestures 🤔😄 8 plus still rocks
I’ve had my 8 plus for a little over 4 years and recently had charging port replaced and my baterry which was at 74% of the original which made a huge difference, and now after 4 years I learned it has wireless charging which is ab to b fun
I know that the iPhone SE third generation is out, but it isn’t really worth it to me. All you get is a bigger battery and a faster processor that’s it. Everything else is the same.

Thanks for the video. I plan on holding my 8 plus for as long as I can. We’ll see about iOS 17. Hope 17 will also support 8 plus. Right now, apps only require iOS 14. So we still will get another two years on the 8 plus and maybe three years if 17 supports
I bought my iPhone 8 Plus back in 2018 and haven’t updated it since I got it , it’s okay since I only used RUclips and WhatsApp but I just updated to ios 16 cuz my old version doesn’t support WhatsApp anymore I hope I didn’t ruin the phone
I updated to the betas on my 8+ and it completely broke upon booting. The search was at the top left corner. Home page was unresponsive and only could use the lock screen to navigate. I suggest on most 8+’s to stay on ios 15 till the public betas are more manageable
I have an issue regarding the iPhone 8 Plus when I downloaded the iOS 16 the camera had stopped working what can be the reason aswel as apps are also crashing
every new update burdens almost every iphone, be it an old model or a newer generation of devices, that is the biggest flaw of Apple, unfortunately, but whoever likes, please
I’m currently on ios 14.7 do i need to update first to 15.6 so that I can proceed to 16 or I can update it directly? Coz on the software update it only show 15.6

Written June 15, 2022 Hey Nick, what is your opinion on Apple giving M1 iPads the new “Stage Manger” multitasking system?? I like how Apple made iPad more of a functional computer with this and how it’s basically unique to the iPad ecosystem by enabling it via a toggle instead of making it a mandatory new way to multitask. Nice for the iPad purists but it’s only M1 iPads exclusive which is 50% of the iPad line already
Why do u do these reviews on the beta version of iOS 16? Why wouldn't you wait until the actual software releases seems like it would be more of a reliable test.
I will cover them again on the official version, this is for people who want to try beta and want to see before they take that chance if the phone is performing well enough for them.

How's it holding up? And what are your practices (how you use normally)? I'd like to know.
