I’m in my late 20’s working full time, trying to save every cent and this phone is perfect for me. Just upgraded from a 6s. I had planned on keeping that old phone a little longer, but with the new September updates the battery life was really going fast. The 8plus, although over two years old and used, has amazing battery life. I might charge once or twice a day if I really use it all day long. Or else it’s more like once every 2 days. The display is fantastic. I don’t see the need for OLED, ‘fullscreen’, or even facial recognition. At this time, I prefer the older style look of my big bezels and home button/print scanner. Since this was the last model that offered this style, it was a no-brainer for me. I absolutely adore the home button, call me afraid of change if you want- I just like how it feels. Jumping from gen 6 to this, the button is no longer press-able, and instead vibrates when pressure is applied. It was love at first touch. The camera is noticeably better than my old phone and on par with the iPhone X camera, which is the main reason I got this model. The processor chip is also efficient and still super speedy. Which is a much needed breath of fresh air. I love the fact that I can now do the wireless pad charging. While I am not a huge fan of the all glass body for durability reasons, cases have always been a requirement for the iPhone anyway. Also purchased on eBay, is my new clear Otterbox Symmetry case because I absolutely love the look of this phone’s White glass with Silver trim- so I did not want it covered up. It reminds me of my first smartphone, the cheap iPhone 5c which I used for 5 long years. Times are changing though and each new year leaves the older models exponentially further in the dust, beaconing you to upgrade. This is my first Plus sized model as I was very content with the increased screen size from the iPhone 5 to 6 jump. With this new purchase though, I am thinking I will definitely stick to the plus models from now on. I’m a big guy with large pockets and hands. So the size and weight are totally preferable and make me feel like a hotshot. One final note I would like to mention as there is a ton of negative stigma behind it- the missing aux port/ headphone jack. Was there room for it? Probably. Do I miss it a little? Not even a TINY bit. I already had Bluetooth headphones (earbuds are not my thing) and grabbed a tiny Bluetooth box for my car as that only has the aux port for my radio. The connection is ridiculously easy and quick. Now I don’t have to deal with aux cords always fraying and no longer working or giving me a ton of static. I have absolutely no complaints about this phone and it was a much needed upgrade. Maybe I’ll get another two year old phone on eBay in 2021 XD. The only thing I wished it had was dual speakers at the bottom. For some reason, I thought it did, but one of them is actually a barometer for determining altitude which is good to know.Read full review

I really enjoy the big screen on the Iphone 8 plus. I wish the phone had an earphone plug. Other than that, the phone operates very nicely.
