The differences become more glaring inside. The iPhone 8 Plus has a new processor and GPU – both Apple-made. iPhone user battery life nightmares may not be over yet, though: the iPhone 8 Plus has a smaller battery than its predecessor, though Apple claims that the iPhone 8 battery lasts longer. Time will tell.

Apple iPhone 8 Plus News and Price in 2020
Note also that it is one of the Apple devices eligible for iOS 14, so buying one in 2020 means you get the latest software and features at a bargain price. The hardware is still quite decent too. If you love a smaller, handier form, the iPhone 8 is mostly the same phone with a smaller 4.7″ display. But we would then advice that you consider the iPhone SE 2020, which is a much more powerful, better equipped, modern remake of the iPhone 8.
