How’s it going all you most amazing people, I am Landon Dowlatsingh and welcome back to
a brand new video.
So let me start off asking you what cell phone do you have?
Let me know in the comment section below and what is your opinion about Apple?
Well we all know the iPhone has been around for a decade and last year it was reported
that apple has sold over 1 billion iPhone.
These phones has taken us by storm and it seems here to stay for a very long time. . .well
maybe not actually.
Well this is the top 10 reasons why not to buy the iPhone 8, and these are the reasons
why I might actually not buy it.
I have always gotten the newest iPhone on the first day but not this time.
Ive actually already tested out the new iPhone 8 phone if you guys want to check that out
click right over here also I will link to it in the description below.
Ok So starting us off at number 10 we talk about the one of many things
that just are not different or even an upgrade from the iPhone 7.
Lets take a look at the screen.
I know for me I like when the phone screen changes or the display upgraded.
Looking at the iPhone 7 the screen is 4.7 inch LCD screen which is the exact same as
the iPhone 7 so why do we need to buy this phone?
So here is the phone comparison on the left is the iphone 8 and on the right is the iPhone
8.
It pretty much looks identical, if I were to guess, I would say this is the exact same
phone.
Even the display has the same ratio of 1334x750 which is 326ppi which is the Pixel density.
The Aspect ratio is also the same with 16:9 for both of these phones but that is pretty
standard.
So when looking at these phones from the front you actually can’t tell the different.
Number 9.
One of the few features that is different is the speakers.
Apple says the new iPhone 8 has 25 percent louder volume.
But is this worth spending a ton of money on we will get to prices in just a little
bit.
So yes the volume is louder but who ever has the volume on max anyways and if we love loud
music most of use has blue tooth speakers.
What do you guys think was there a massive increase in the volume?
Is this a big enough feature for you to make the jump to the iPhone 8.
To be honest right now I am still not sold, I wouldn’t buy a new phone because the speakers
were just a little bit louder.
Ok so lets actually look at the price at number 8.
This kinda stopped me from buying the phone.
I have a deicison to make, weather I want to spend money on this phone and forget about
the iPhone x phone that will be available for pre- order soon, do I buy two phones do
I buy no phones.
I actually can’t decide right now what do you guys think I should do.
So the iPhone 8 is now available and its selling for $929 before tax for the 4.7 inch display
version of the phone and for the plus version you are going to have to take out a loan of
$1059.
This is for the plus version of this phone.
Also I forgot to tell you these prices are just for the base model 64GB.
For me that is for sure not enough, once you have your apps, games pictures, music and
video footage you will be out of storage really quickly than you have to debate what you want
to delete on your phone.
The 256gb version for the plus phone is $1,269.
For the regular 4.7 inch screen you looking at 1,139 dollars for the 256 gb of memory.
Alrigh its time to have Dejavu at number 7.
In the new iPhone 8 it’s really lacking the innovation.
We have already seen this phone its called the iPhone 6 & 7.
The thing that was amazing about the iPhone 6 was the fact that it first introduced the
plus versions of these phones and that was very intriguing.
I hated the bigger phone at first but now I can’t go back to the smaller one.
There is no new technology in the iPhone 8, apple saved all the good technology and features
for the iPhone X.
This might have been spart marketing to get people to buy the iPhone X but what is going
to happen to the iPhone 8 will it be one of the lowest selling generations of the iPhones.
Every year is a new record milestone for united sold, something tells me this year we won’t
have a record with the iPhone 8.
Its might be time to jump ship at number 6.
Apple has been known to be lagging behind the competition, but for some reason apple
fans including myself have been loyal and have been forking up thousands of dollars
each year.
But now seeing this iPhone 8, this might be it for apple.
Apple has just introduced wireless charging.
Google and LG started wireless charging back in 2013 believe it or not that’s almost
5 yrs ago.
Also its not including when you buy the phone it’s a separate expensive if you want wireless
charing.
Edge to Edge screen display has been out for a while now and apple still doesn’t have
it, We have to wait for the iPhone X to come out and still its not 100 percent edge to
edge there is a little part of the bezel still interfering with the screen.
So it might be time to jump ship and see what androids all about and the Google pixal 2
phone that should be available very soon.
Moving into number 5 is we have to be patient.
For us who don’t want to buy two phones worth over $1,000 dollars we have to just
wait for the iPhone X to come out, so we don’t buy the iphone 8 phone and the iphone x phone.
If you guys are coming from the iPhone 5 or 6 phone this would be an upgrade for you but
from the iPhone 7 there is not much.
This is another reason why sales might be low for the iPhone 8.
A lot of people might just be waiting for the iPhone X phone if they can afford.
Some of my buddies are actually waiting for the iPhone 9 phone to come out and see what
that’s all about.
If everyone is saying the iPhone X is much better than the iPhone 8 than why even bother
with the 8.
Number 4, another feature being sold as a reason why you should buy the new phone is
the processing power.
There is an upgrade with this from the A10 Fusion chip to the A11 Bionic Chip.
So lets take a look at what the A11 Bionic Chip really means.
Well the single and multi- core scores are high in the iPhone 8 phones but its not much
higher.
Its about 25 percent faster but when does your phone ever lag behind.
I don’t think I have ever had a phone lag or perform properly unless I am using wifi
and the wifi is limited that’s a data issure and not a issue with the device itself.
And also there were tests done about the speed of the two phones when it was connected to
Wifi and both phones rang in at the same speed.
Its able to transmit signal about the same.
So paying over 1,000 bucks for a faster phone might not be worth it at all.
If you like your phone to weight as little as possible well the iPhone 8 might not be
for you at number 3.
The iPhone 8 phone is actually heavier not much heavier but it is heavier than the iPhone
7 phone.
They are about 10 grams apart and also the iPhone 8 phone is thicker as well this is
because of the material change in this phone.
Instead of the light weight thing Alumium apple replaced it with a glass backing to
allow the wireless charging feature.
There were many probably with the Alumium phones, you have have heard of bend gate right.
Well it was when people were having issues with there phones bending while it was in
there pockets.
This shouldn’t happen with the glass phones but lets just hope the phone doesn’t smash
as soon as you drop it.
So ya he dropped his phone facing forward and it also smashed.
Coming in at number 2.
If you guys want a new phone because it feels different.
Well I can save you guys a grand just install the new software update and get the new iOS
11 that apple is now offering.
It will change the commands on your phone and give it a different feel with some upgrades
so you don’t need to buy the new iphone 8 to have all these new enhancements.
With the new iOS 11 you now have live photo loops like this.
You now also have bounce where the photo plays forward and than it goes in reverse giving
it a bounce effect.
Also we now have the long exposure pictures.
There was many many updates with this iOS11 update so give it a try update your phones
and see if the update makes it feel like you just got a brand new phone and save your money
from the iPhone 8.
Finally at number 1, Do not buy this phone if you primarily use your phone for pictures
of videos.
I put this at number 1 because this is my number 1 reason why I might not buy this new
phone.
The camera features didn’t get better at all.
Its still only has a 12MP camera with 1.8 aperture.
The iphone has been horrible in low lighting and their isn’t much improvements there.
The digital zoom is still 5x both the iPhone 7 and 8 have wife caolor capture for photos
and live photos.
Both phones can record in 4k at 30fps the iphone 8 does has up to 60 fps but its not
really noticeable.
Both phones has 1080 HD Video recording capabilities.
So really what is the point of this phone.
They both have slo mo and time lapse that has become pretty standard no a days.
Well there you guys have it tell me what you guys think of this phone in the comment section
below.
Thanks for watching I will see you guys next time.
