Key differences of the iPhone 8 and 8 Plus

The iPhone 8 Plus is nearly identical to the iPhone 8 however, the 8 Plus gives a more immersive experience due to its larger 5.5-inch screen and higher resolution.
The Plus was optimised for the ultimate augmented reality experience. We've included some awesome augmented reality apps below!

Augmented reality (AR) is an interactive experience of a real-world environment where the objects that reside in the real world are enhanced by computer-generated information.

Added telephoto lens and improved optical zoom on the rear camera.

The difference between digital zoom vs optical zoom? To put it simply, optical zoom enables a camera to achieve a close-up of the subject without physically moving towards it. Digital zoom will crop the entire image and then digitally enlarge the viewfinder size.

Includes portrait mode, enabling you to take dramatic images with studio lighting.
Improved battery life by 1 hour.
