#Iphone 8 64gb new upgrade#

We ran Geekbench 5 on the iPhone 12, and got single- and multicore scores of 1,593 and 3,859, respectively. We're up to the A14 Bionic with the iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 mini, and to hear Apple tell it, that processor will outperform last year's silicon by some margin, let alone chips that came out in 2017. That processor was more than able to hold its own against the best chipset for Android phones at the time, the Snapdragon 835.Д«ut Apple hasn't stood still in the last three years, introducing subsequently more powerful processors with each iPhone release. Both the iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus used the best Apple silicon of their day - an A11 Bionic chip. Here's where iPhone 8 upgraders will likely see the biggest leap. Let's just say we have a new pick for the best camera phone, and it's not a phone that came out three years ago.

We were pretty impressed with the performance of both the iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 mini cameras, and you'll certainly notice the big step up if you upgrade from an iPhone 8 or 8 Plus. Put it another way: The iPhone 8 Plus may have as many rear cameras as the iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 mini, but the machine learning-powered software on the latest iPhones lets you do so much more. (At this point, you're likely buying a refurbished iPhone 8, which drives the cost down further.) Prices have since dropped, with the iPhone 8 costing less than $400. With a larger screen and two cameras, the iPhone 8 Plus cost $100 more. But the iPhone 8 held the line on pricing, starting at $699. The same year the iPhone 8 came out, Apple released the iPhone X, which signaled the dawn of $999 flagship phones.
