As earlier generation flagship devices, both models offer impressive features and capabilities, making them great options. In this review, we’ll compare both smartphones across different areas, including design, display, camera and much more which will help you decide which device is ideally suited for you.

Design & Build Quality

The iPhone 7 Plus and iPhone 8 Plus share similar designs with 5.5-inch displays and dual cameras at the back. However, they also have their differences with the iPhone 8 Plus having a glass back panel that allows for wireless charging and a sleeker look, but is also more fragile than the aluminium back panel of the iPhone 7 Plus.

Display

Both phones have a 5.5-inch Retina HD display with 1920 x 1080 pixels. The displays are bright, and clear and produce vivid colours. However, the iPhone 8 Plus has an additional feature called True Tone, which automatically adjusts the colour temperature based on the surrounding environment. This feature provides a more natural and comfortable viewing experience.

Camera

The newer model has a larger sensor, faster aperture and improved image signal processing, resulting in better image quality, particularly in low-light conditions. Additionally, it also features a Portrait Lighting mode, which allows users to modify the lighting effects in portrait mode photos.

Performance

The iPhone 7 Plus has the A10 Fusion chip while the iPhone 8 Plus has the A11 Bionic chip that also has a Neural Engine, which is better suited for tasks like facial recognition and augmented reality. The upgrade makes the iPhone 8 Plus more efficient and faster, particularly when running heavy games like PUBG Mobile and Lightroom.

Battery Life

The iPhone 7 Plus and 8 Plus have similar battery life with up to 21h talk time and up to 13h of internet use. You could use it when you’re outdoors the whole day. However, the iPhone 8 Plus has a fast-charging capability, allowing the phone to charge up to 50% in just 30 minutes. This feature is for those on the go and who need a quick charge to keep their phone running.
