Hello I am new to this forum, but have used apple products for 5 years. I currently have an Iphone 5s, as my 6 died two years ago. I have an upgrade, and I am not sure if I should get the 7+ or the 8+. I am used to a very slow phone that rarely works properly, so both would be a fantastic upgrade. Any opinions are appreciated.
Thanks,
Kram
iPhone 5s, iOS 10.3.3
Hi krammmm,
I would recommend the 7 Plus. Its a good deal cheaper ($669 vs $799). All the 8+ adds is wireless charging (charging pad sold separately), a new feature in the camera that allows you to change the lighting in portrait mode, and the True Tone display, which adjusts the appearance of white based on the ambient light. At least for me, these don't seem to be worth the extra money. One thing however, the starting configuration for the 7+ is 32GB. The base model for the 8+ is 64GB. So you also get a storage upgrade with the 8+. Ultimately its what matters most to you. But personally I wouldn't buy the 8+. Its really the 7S+. Not really a huge upgrade. Calling it the iPhone 8+ was primarily a marketing strategy.
Now going from the 6S+ to the 7+ added a lot of things...So if you were choosing between those two I would definitely say go with the 7+.
Below is a link where you can compare all the different phones Apple sells currently.

Hello,
Both iPhone models will be a significant upgrade for you.
I would suggest purchasing the iPhone 8 Plus because they have the latest technology from Apple, such as the A11 Bionic chip, Wireless charging, and a True Tone display.
You can use the following link to compare the iPhone and see what is right for you:
Get the 7+, it is a design that has held up well over the last year, the 8+ is unknown. Camera is great, but no headphone jack.
If you don't mind having a year old phone, you'll save ~$100 by buying the 7.
Anyone would be good but I would go for the newest one myself
Hi
Depends on the iPhone you can afford 7+/ 8+ they are both good iphones
