hi everyone I'm Ricky from Tech Talk and today is a new iPhone unboxing this is
the iPhone 8 plus
so it comes in three different colors this year comes in silver space grey
which we chose for and gold all that blushed gold effect comes in two sizes
as well 64 gigabytes for 799 pounds and 256 gigabytes for 949 pounds so we have
gone for the Space Gray model and it is a 64 gigabyte option this year Apple has
changed its packaging so let me just bring in the 6s plus which was from a
couple of years ago so she can see very bright very vibrant this is the jet
black model of the 7 plus here so as you can see they've lost that bright display
they have chosen to show the back and the front at the same time on the 8 plus
turn around to the back you have a tap pull off your packaging so taking off
the lid you're not met with the device so we saw this last year you have it
designed by Apple in California without information-packed so inside here take
our first one you're gonna find a little fingertip guide just to welcome you to
your iPhone laying out the key information that you may need to know
you then have your sim extraction tool so you insert and remove your SIM cards
you then have warranty and regulatory information then finally you have some
Apple stickers which we can add to the collection underneath that you will find
your iPhone 8 plus so we'll have a look at that in a little bit in your box
you'll also find your UK three-pin plug here you'll then have some ear pods
these are not air pods but they are the wild connection but you do also have the
connection on the back as again on the 8th class we do not have any headphone
jack and finally at the bottom you just have your lightning cable for syncing
and charging your brand new iPhone now let's unwrap our new iPhone 8 plus and
get to know a little bit more it's gonna be very hard to tell these two devices
apart of the 8 plus and the 7 plus because it's not massively much
different it's more inside that is very different and we're going to talk about
that very soon so first of all let's peel off this back in
they're gonna look at that all new glass black display on this device Apple says
it is the toughest glass possible one of the main differences for the new iPhone
8 plus is with glass on the back it adds wireless charging thanks to Qi charging
devices you then have a space grade aluminum band around the edge here
that's designed in the color of your device and it syncs through nicely I
think the Space Gray model is very nicely done here I know that people are
liking the brush gold as well so all the buttons are in the same place so you've
got your power button sleep/wake button coming down to this side you've got a
little antenna bar there and then also you've got your volume rockers and then
you've got your vibrate switch there as well turning down to the bottom you've
got your lightning connection and come around to the front of our display is a
5.5 inch display and that gives us a resolution of 1920 by 1080 P 401 pixel
density as well so the same as the seven-plus compared to the chip inside
the new a 11 Bionic chip is very impressive and let's get into the setup
and see how well it performs welcome you to your brand new iPhone inserting my
SIM card there and I can see the signal bars are up and running we have signal
you will need a SIM card to activate your iPhone we're still using a touch ID
for the iPhone 8 and 8 plus we get that face ID in the iPhone X next it will ask
us to select our language we're going to hit English up here at the top then is
presumed we are in the United Kingdom which we are then we are greeted with a
new splash screen Quick Start so this will pass information from an older
iPhone device to your brand new one so let's give it a try so I need to do is
bring my iPhone in a bit closer so bringing in my iPhone closely here to
the new Quick Start one it has your Apple ID so just be careful and then you
can hit continue there at the bottom and it will start to transfer you the data
you have then like an Apple watch display where you point your device at
this and then it will transfer information on your new iPhone or ask
you to add a passcode that you have on this iPhone here now it's asking us to
set up a touch ID now its bend our thumb slightly first thing I'm noticing here
the vibrations seem to be a lot better in this device
compares it to the previous so hit continue then we have the option to set
ups at the moment we're going to set up as a new device is then going to ask us
to login with our Apple ID then have a list of terms and conditions then we
have our location services so we're going to enable location so Apple pay we
can set up later Siri we can enable Syria and go actually set up Siri later
an iPhone analytics though you can send your information to your Apple XI so
wish to one big new added feature that I'm really impressed to see on the
iPhone 8 plus is a true tone display so you have the option here to see how it
works so it's very hard to show the light will change compared to your
natural daily lights we can press and hold this here and you can see how
difference is and don't thing the cameras going to pick it up it's very
hard to actually do but you can use true tone display so make the new home button
you can change your clicks here feel what that one looks like we can then use
three four one two so I prefer three display zoom so you can either your
display zoomed in so this is standard and then this is zoomed and then you can
scroll through and see in a text message as well standard and then zoomed and
welcome to iPhone get started and then we are finished we're set up and ready
to use our brand new iPhone 8 plus it sliding up you can see we're in iOS 11
already and you've got that new control center here you have your new
Notification Center and we're gonna have an in-depth look at iOS 11 on the brand
new iPhone 8 plus the one little added bonus where the iPhone 8 plus is that
you get three different wallpapers compared to what you get on the iPhone 7
plus with iOS 11 so you get all the others that you normally have with iOS
11 but you get these three vivid new colors and I think this is mainly for
the iPhone X when this comes out you can choose these as you can see here we've
got two very vivid colors now this is what it looks like when you're on your
home screen so there's a lot of applications on my iPhone 7 plus I need
to move over there's nice to see you get a little added benefits but these will
be able to download as well for your other iPhone devices placing on two
devices slide by slide as you can see here the seven plus came in with a 7.3
millimeter thickness the new iPhone AIDS is actually 7.5
millimeters thick there's a little bit more thicker and it weighs a little bit
more which you can tell so the new iPhone 8 weighs 200 grams compared to
888 grams on the iPhone 7 plus now we've unboxed our device and got it set up and
we can have a first look and first impressions first of all comparing the
iPhone 7 plus and the eight plus it's not much difference at all so if you are
interested in wireless charging this is where this device will be better for you
included in the iPhone 8 and then the iPhone X when it launches later on this
year you do have the ability for wireless
charging you remember when charging for a cable is always going to be quicker
than there is a difference in the camera as well recording 4k can be done at 60
frames per second now instead of 30 frames per second then also we have new
240 frames per second slow motion in 1080p when it comes down to power
performance this is where it changes with the iPhone 8 plus with their new a
11 Bionic shit is impressive and it's coming up to benchmark scores of a
macbook pro like the one added benefit as well that we see on this device
compared to other devices is its true tone display
I've got Amit using this on the iPad pro 10 point five inch Edition it is nice to
have and I'm really forward to using it you don't really recognize it but if you
use your device that doesn't have true tone display you will know about it
so Apple has really changed the game with its power and performance with this
device including the new chip this is the a 11 Bionic chip which is 64-bit
architecture it has a neural engine an embedded M 11 motion coprocessor as well
the one let down on this device but Apple very good at working with hardware
and software combine to help battery life is the battery life is actually
gone down compared to the 7 plus I think this is due to the wireless charging so
now in this device you've got two thousand six hundred and seventy five
minutes hour compared to two thousand nine hundred millionth hour on the
iPhone 7 plus so if you do have any questions or queries please drop a
comment down below let me know what you think of the new iPhone 8 plus are you
getting this are you getting the iPhone 8 or are you going to wait and
that iPhone X me personally it's not massive upgrade from moving from the
seven plus two now the iPhone 8 plus wireless charging is maybe a good thing
for me recording in 60 frames per second will
be good we're gonna be testing this out at the NFL this weekend so shortly we'll
also have the Apple TV 4k unboxing and there will be a wireless charger video
coming up where we unbox a range of wireless chargers from multiple
different companies or different powers and we'll be testing this out on the
brand new iPhone eights Plus thanks always for watching and I will see you
in my next video bye for now
