    Top 4 of the Best Iphone Deals Avilable

    SO you have finally decided to make the upgrade and get yourself the newest of the new. Now you have to make the tough decision and decide on the model, size and color. Now to find the best deal possible on your new purchase, everyone wants your iPhone business so lets take a look at the 4 best places to get yours.

     

    1. T-mobile, Apple iPhone X

    Switching to T mobile may be the best move right now. Instead of shelling out $1000 for the new iPhone X you can bring your number to Tmobile, pay just $304 for the most powerful and breathtaking smartphone ever conceived. The plan will const you $100 a month, but includes unlimited everything and free Netflix. Plus under the right conditions, there is even a buy one get one free option.

    2. Verizon,  iPhone X

    This option I like, If you have an iPhone 6 or above you can get half off the Iphone X. So for 0$ and only 101.79 a month you will get the IPhone X 64 gb and unlimited service from Verizon. I do recommend paying the extra 10$ for the upgrade unlimited service though. With this particular deal it is best to wait out the 2 years as the half off promotion is paid out monthly for 24 months

    3. Best Buy, All iPhones

    Through best buy you can buy 2 iPhone 8 and 8 plus at a buy one get one free when you buy both on AT&T Next. Offer eligible for new or upgraded lines of activation. The nice thing about this offer is if you are an existing AT&T customer, you don’t have to switch to a new service. Little insider tip, buy both and take advantage of the bogo and $200 off. Purchase an AT&T iPad from Best buy as well and move it on to the second iPhone line to decrease the cost monthly to $10 and give you connection on the iPad.

     

    4. Sprint, Lease option on the iPhone X

    There is a pretty decent option here, Sprint service is greatly improved. Especially if you are in some of their big markets like Orlando, Chicago or Kansas City. For $80 up front you can lease the X. The monthly lease is only $20 a month, added to their $60 unlimited plan and you have your self a pretty great deal.

    SmartPhone Spotlight: iPhone 8 Plus

    Phone 8 Plus introduces an all‑new glass design. The world’s most popular camera, now even better. The most powerful and smartest chip ever in a smartphone. Wireless charging that’s truly effortless. And augmented reality experiences never before possible. iPhone 8 Plus . A new bigger generation of iPhone.

     

    The Great

    • Insane performance
    • Dual Camera, Portrait Mode
    • Excellent, versatile camera
    • Great screen
    • Super speakers
    • Wireless charging is nice to have
    • 3gb of RAM

    The Not

    • Its heavy
    • …come on, its perfect

    The Conclusion

    The iPhone 8 is great, the iPhone 8 plus is better, bigger, and a much better camera

     

    But the Size

    I know everyone thinks they don’t want to carry a bigger phone in their pocket. Its too big they say. Ill drop it. Calm down, you will adjust to the size in a few hours. Its size is perfect, not a liability. Once you adjust you will feel like you could crush the 8 in your palm because its too puney.

    the iPhone 8 Plus represents a new update on a modern classic. There are nice upgrades to the screen, camera and processor, although nothing that will really make you say ‘wow’. It’s an iPhone 7S Plus but better.

     

    What Do You Get with a Plus

    There are a few differences with the iPhone 8 plus over the 8 than just the size. One big difference is the extra GB of memory. The iPhone 8 Plus has 3GB of RAM, while the iPhone 8 has 2GB. Battery: A tear down revealed that the iPhone 8 has a 1,821mAh battery, while the iPhone 8 Plus has a 2,675mAh battery. Camera: Both phones have a 12MP rear camera with an f/1.8 aperture and optical image stabilization.

    This Camera

    The major difference is the dual camera on the back. Why do I want two cameras on the back of my phone? Portrait Mode. That is why. Dual cameras and new facial land marking create dramatic studio lighting effects in Portrait mode.  The photos generally turned out great. Low-light gains aren’t as dramatic as I expected compared to the already excellent iPhone 7 Plus, but the photos I’ve been taking have generally looked phenomenal.

    Portrait Mode, which debuted last year, now supports flash photography and HDR. The 8 Plus and the X add a new photo technique called Portrait Lighting, a beta feature that adds simulated 3D lighting to faces and even strips out backgrounds to create a studio-shot effect.

    The Not

    • ….

    The Conclusion

    Its not the iphone v android, its what model iPhone do you want? It has been reigning king for 10 years. Only question to ask your self is what color.

     

    The Look

    This is the same design ans size as the previous model. you have seen it, you know it. How do you tell the difference between the 8 and the 7 physically? you want other people to know you are rocking the latest model of the iPhone, don’t you? The glass back design is a dead give away you are a true baller and have the iPhone 8.

    Whats New

    iPhone 8 Plus has an all-new glass-backed design, along with the same color-matching, 7000 Series aluminum edges and glass front as iPhone 7 Plus. Apple says the rear glass is the strongest glass in any smartphone, with a 50 percent deeper strengthening layer.

    A Quicker Performance Boost.

    iPhone 8 Plus has Apple’s latest A11 Bionic chip. It has two performance cores that are 25 percent faster, and four high-efficiency cores that are 70 percent faster, than the A10 chip in iPhone 7 Plus. The A11 chip also has a neural engine and a more powerful M11 motion coprocessor vs. M10.

     

    Wireless Charging

    iPhone 8 Plus supports wireless charging based on the Qi standard. The device can charge by being placed on an inductive charging pad, such as Apple’s upcoming AirPower mat or third-party options from accessory makers such as Mophie, Belkin, and Incipio. It will not support the non Qi wireless charging systems.. this is not an issue unless you use the Duracell power mat. I will note even on the fastest of wireless chargers its still much faster on the plug, but life is nice when you have options.

    The Final Thought

    All in all, those features make the iPhone 8 Plus a considerable upgrade over the iPhone 7 Plus, which is perhaps why Apple skipped over calling it the iPhone 7s Plus. Alongside the iPhone X, it’s an option worth having.
